It doesn't look like Activision and Harmonix are ever going to make nice and implement broad hardware compatibility for Rock Band and Guitar Hero controllers, but if you've got a sizable investment in PS2 gear, The Ant Commandos' new converter might let you ignore all the nastiness and keep rockin' anyway. TAC's Universal PS2-to-PS3 Converter is compatible with PS3 Rock Band and PS2 / PS3 GHIII, and it works with basically every PS2 axe you can think of, wired and wireless. Not bad for just $20, but c'mon, guys, let's just make this stuff work for real, alright?

1 customer did say that gh2 and gh encore wasn't listed as playable but rock band using the guitar hero guitars from ps2 sounds good to me

oh i used radio shack's (psx to pc) for my react guitar don't use wammy bar and pelican for the offical gh2 red guitar that came with gh2 couldn't use wammy bar but you didn't lose points like the other controller did
