Note: Must be used in conjunction with a Wired Xbox 360 controller.
what?

So in order to work it needs to hide itself from the 360 while a pluged controller is in it?

the basic input is:
<wired 360 pad to converter>
<converter>----ps3 sinal-----<tv>
<ps3 pad to converter> or xbox 360
(changeable)

to be honest its genius!

It IS possible. I do understand how controllers work and how they operate on different frequencies. In fact if i remember right the ps3 controllers use bluetooth to connect to the ps3. but i could be wrong. and the xbox 360 ones don't. and besides adapters can be made to convert the signals from one kind of controller to another. wired xbox 360 and xbox v1 controllers use usb to connect to the xbox. ps3 and ps2 do not. in fact i think the ps3 sends its signal through the usb cord to the ps3 when charging. but i could be wrong here too. now if this IS true that they can connect through the cord, then you can get an adapter with a usb plug designed to connect the ps3 controller to the xbox 360. then it would work.

I sent Divineo an e-mail asking a few questions about the adapter and one of them was how you would use the XBOX Button since the two controllers have the exact same amount of buttons with the exception of that one. Their response was that you can set the XBOX Button to whatever button you want to with the adapter. My problem with that though is that if you do that you are sacrificing a button that will be needed to play the game for it. I sent them another e-mail about it and am currently waiting for a response.
ill dig it up again. lol well for one legally you couldnt release a 3rd party adapter because of the fore-mentioned code. As for it being bluetooth, so what, when you plug it in through USB, it doesnt use Bluetooth, lmao and there's no Xbox button? Are you people kidding me, there's a Home Button which is esientially the same thing. lol. Like here, I use my PS3 controller and emulate it as an Xbox 360 Controller (on PC of course, not on 360 itself) on all my games that allow/support a 360 controller, i.e. just cause 2, arkham asylum, splinter cell conviction, etc. Guess what the Xbox button is?..... Go on guess..... no you'll prolly get it wrong, it's the PS Home Button! Yaaaaaaaay! I peed in your pool! Yaaaaaaaaay!

Also if anyone is interested. You can still use mouse, keyboard AND A PS3 CONTROLLER flawlessly on an Xbox 360 it's just (because of mentioned code and legal issues) it's just, you still need a wired xbox controller plugged into the converter which makes it useless unless you already have one and just really perfer the smaller PS3 controller. I for one don't mind, both controllers have their ups and downs.

Yeah, I Said it.

even if the dpad is fixed its nowhere near the quality and precision ps3 offers for seasoned beat em up players, and it has nothing to do with learning curve...its handicap...i have about 7 controllers for the xbox some bout last year and they may be adjusted but theyre still not as reliable as u want to play beatem ups...so ive been looking around and what i found was the "XCM crossfire converter" , wich allows u to play with your ps3 controller on your xbox360 ( it has to be wired ... no wireless option =p but that makes ps3 controller on xbox possible )

yeah XCM Crossfire is amazing and if you're a hardcore 360 player and would like to use your 360 controller on a ps3, you can get the XCM Battle Adapter which is essientially the same thing but made for PS3.

I take it the newer models have it but you can also use mouse and keyboard with crossfire, lol which is kinda sweet for percision. but i def. feel you there, the ps3 d-pad alone is far more percise than the 360. i mean all the time im navigating menus and hit down on the d-pad but somehow it thinks im fucking hitting down left and goes into another section, fucking hate it. glad ps3 d-pad is seperated and not webbed.

Yo, I'm interested in http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PS2-CONTROLLER-TO-...#ht_2023wt_1137

It's only £7, so it might be worth a try...can anyone see why this wouldn't work?

It must be easier to convert the ps2 controller since it has no wireless capabilities.

Not a stupid question at all...if you remember there was an adapter that allowed you to use PS2 controllers on an original XBOX...im sure someone can create an adapter that would allow this...Ben Heck maybe

Hello. Is it possible to use a PS3 controller on the XBOX 360? Tekken is now being released on the 360 and I can't imagine playing it, or any fighting game with the 360 controller. I tried searching Google for an adapter but I came up empty. Can someone tell me if this is possible and maybe how to get one please? Thanks.
Yes it is possible...its expensive but 100% possible
