After Crecente posted about Nyko's announcement that their PS3 Play Adaptor allowing Guitar Hero controllers to be used on the new console, I immediately went into doubt mode. I even questioned Crecente's ability to read press releases, as I'd heard in November from a Red Octane rep that there was no workaround for getting your current guitar controllers to work on the PS3.
Fortunately, I was wrong. I stopped by the Nyko suite yesterday at CES to get it from the source. Unfortunately, no working demo was available for me (of little faith) to try out, but the Nyko marketing dudes confirmed it flat out. Yes, the Nyko Play Adaptor will let you use your guitar controllers on the PlayStation 3, courtesy of a magical little toggle switch that solves the current hardware and software issues that are keeping thousands of PlayStation 2s still hooked up.
