Best PS2 Pad Adapter for Xbox?

[Don Alex]

Hiya guys,

I just joined up and I've done a search and read all the stickies and stuff and I don't think this question has been answered yet!

What is the best adapter for converting ps2 pads so I can use them with the XBOX? I've found a number of different models like simplygames Atomic Play adapter or Lik Sang's Magic Box. Would I be correct in assuming that in order to use the Xbox Live headset, the controller will need a memory card slot? If so, the Magic Box would seem to do the trick...

I really want to order some adapters because I sold my PS2 to get an XBOX for Pro Evo 4 Live but I am really missing the PS2 pad - the xbox pad just isn't as good! Online retailers in the UK are preferred simply because then I can get my hands on the adapters quicker!

Thanks very much,

Alex.

The link above that Reyes gives - The Dreambox is probably the best, yes. Certainally if you want it to support the XBL headset.

I have a Dreambox convertor and a Joy Box convertor. The Joy Box convertor has a memory card slot, but the headset doesnt work on it...so the Magic Box that you're looking at may not necessarily support the headset either.

To my knowledge, the Dreambox convertor is the only one about at the moment that supports the headset. So if you get the Dreambox you can't go wrong.

I bought the joybox, but really thought that the XBOX controller was just as easy to use when playing because of the shoulder buttons being reversed. I've played about 15 games now on the XBOX controller and I think it's alrite, other than the fact I have to use the analogue stick instead.
