KollarGTAMF Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I'm getting an xbox 360 and was wondering if anyone makes a PS2 style controller FOR the 360... I've been playing PS for YEARS (all i've ever played) and dont want to combine the learning curve of news games WITH the learning curve of a new controller. If there is such a thing, is it easy to get? and where could I get it. THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly_Madman Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 You're still rockin' the old school Takeaway Co. sig? Jesus. Anyway, on to your question. I've been playing Playstation for years until this generation when I decided to switch up to 360. It took me, literally, about 5 minutes to figure out the buttons, then I was good. It's not too different from Sony, 4 shoulder buttons, 4 face buttons on the right mapped identically to the PS, start and select are essentially in the same spot, the only thing different is instead of a D Pad on the left, it's an analog stick (which I find quite fitting anyway). Plus, you can't get a 3rd party wireless controller, but if you really want a Playstation controller, I could do some google searching and see what I turn up...

Seddo Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Yeah i used to be a PS1 and PS2 player and i moved to the 360 and it only took me a few minutes to learn the layout of the controller and i have had no problems since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star-Lord Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 (edited) This site has what you are looking for. Plus more off the hook items for the Xbox360. MaxConsole I hoping that it is only an adapter and that nothing else is needed. Edited January 16, 2007 by pcguytech_2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brutuz Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I can use Xbox controllers pretty well and I have never owned one, but that PS2 to 360 adapter is looking pretty buyable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seddo Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Tha adapter is looking very cool, will help alot of Playstaion to xbox gamers, like myself, but i dont have any problems with any controllers anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA3Freak-2001 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Trust me you'll fall in love with the 360's new controller, I had always preferred the Dual-shock even when I had the original Xbox with the S-Controller but once I got a 360 I totally forgot about the dual-shock.

beanmachine43 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I've always that the Xbox controller had the better layout, especially for a FPS. The bumers added to the top just like the L1 and R1 buttons on the PS2 really was a great move. But once you spend a lot of time with a console and its controller, this type of thing can really help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GritSandWiches4Breakfest Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Never heard of one, but ps2 or ps3 controller would be better if you could find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenaciousD. Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Pretty sure you'll have no real problem, they all have the same basic of analouge sticks and buttons in roughly the same place. TKC fo life' I miss it so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA3Freak-2001 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Just thought of something, Tony Hawk games I have to say are always better with a Dual-shock controller. I don't mind even Project 8 on 360 but I've felt more comfortable with the dual-shock. This is probably because I prefer to use the d-pad for movement over the analog and on a 360 controller that's uncomfortable due to the positioning of the d-pad. That adapter thing looks pretty tempting, since it kinda kills two birds with the one stone. Even though most games on 360 wouldn't even work correctly with a keyboard and mouse its still nice for messaging and stuff. On that note I hope Command and Conquer Tiberium Wars will support a mouse at least, my PC won't run C&C3 so 360 is my only option you see.
