I purchased this product for the purpose of using it for playing Guitar Hero III and GH Aerosmith on my PC and Mac computer. Unfortunately, it wasn’t programed to have that ability, so I have to return it because it isn’t what I want.

I’m still looking for a product like this to use on either Mac or PC for Guitar Hero. I hope someone is working on it but last I heard, that wasn’t a priority.

And with Guitar Hero World Tour and Smash Hits coming out for PC and Mac this summer, the need and want for such a product is becoming greater.

I bought one of these several years ago to use some Playstation controllers for Windows games on my PC. It does what you expect – it lets you use Playstation controllers on your PC. I used it with Windows XP and Windows 7, so I know it’s compatible with both and should be compatible with Vista, too.

I always had a feeling these things were a bit flaky & weird. For example, the right controller appears first in the Windows device list, and the left controller appears second. This is the opposite of what I would expect. Also, one of the LED indicator lights (which indicate when a controller is plugged in) didn’t work on mine from the day I bought it – and I bought mine new. The most disappointing thing, though, is that mine stopped working tonight – Windows didn’t see anything when I plugged it into my PC, and nothing happened when I tried to use my controllers. I opened up the adapter and saw that one of the wires from the USB cable had become disconnected from the little circuit board inside. This is why I only give it 2 stars.

Based on my experience with this, I would recommend avoiding this product. I would look for a different adapter, or perhaps just buy a USB game controller that’s made for a PC.

Don't hesitate to buy anything from this account! They sended it to me unopened, in bubble wrap packaging, it works perfectly, The bonus items pwn, and nothing is delayed.

Instead of the transparent blue pictured, my connector was black which was extremely disappointing since it was the main reason I chose to buy this connector.

Sellers should change the image, since I can’t trust buying things based on the image displayed.

The PS PS2 USB Dual Controller to PC Adapter Converter is not compatible with Vista as the seller states in their discription of the unit. Even on the package it states only compatible with Win95/98/Me/2000/XP..no where does it list Vista…I tried it and it does not work with Vista.
