Hi

We have recently brought a PS2 and was wondering if there was an adapter
that enables you to you PC controllers i.e., steering wheels, on the PS2.
I know you can get adapters to enable you to use the PS2 controller on the
PC but wondered if there was anything for the reverse.

Many thanks.

A few of the Logitech wheels work on both the PS2 and the PC without drivers.

Have a Logitech Wingman Formula Force, what kind of adapter would I need to
plug it into the PS2?

Would that be the old red colored wheel with the cable drive? (That's what I
have and it's about 5 years old now)
If so I know you can't just plug and play like the newer Logitech wheels,
and I'm not aware of any adaptors, but if you do locate one, please post it
in this thread as I'd be VERY interested in that too!

Thanks

There is a small USB port that is in blue where the rest of the unit is
black I think.

I think he should probably just steal a PS2 one from the store.

At the Best Buys I have seen, they are all tethered to the seat.

Tried the wheel last night and it worked perfect, ok some of the buttons
have moved but for racing (steering and pedals) it's perfect - eventhe force
feedback worked.
