Pelican’s PS3 USB adapter: compatible with PS2’s GH controllers
Around January of this year, accessories manufacturer Pelican came up with PS3 Pro Cooler (a gadget that aims to keep our PlayStation 3 units from overheating). However, it received a lukewarm reaction the gaming community because of reports concerning defective third-party cooling accessories.
Anyway, here’s another product from the company and at first glance, it does look promising. It’s a USB thingamajig and some of its key features include:
- It’s made by Pelican and has a 5-year warranty. Pelican will replace or repair your console if a Pelican product damages it.
- It has a “PS Home” button on it and four red LEDs to indicate controller number.
- Guitar Hero 1 and 2 Ready: Plug in your favorite guitar and rock out to Guitar Hero 1 and 2 on your PS3.
- It doesn’t support rumble.
We still don’t have the accessory ourselves but gaming site Aeropause mentioned that the PS Home button is pretty much accurate. Also, the site noticed that if you hold down the analog button on the DualShock 2, the menu for Home will pop up as well. However, Aeropause wasn’t able to test the promised GH-compatibility.
If you manage to get hold of one of this and you still have your old guitar controller, why not give it a shot and tell us about the results.
