Cheap Ps2 controller > X360 converter

Hmm… I didn’t notice this thread as well. Thanks to laugh I’ll also be reviewing the XConverter 360, which is a PS2->XBOX 360 converter.

See my preview post about it in Kyle’s converter compatibility thread:

I hate having all the cables everywhere so i stuck an old non common ground pcb in the box now its more like a project box setup.

when i have more time ill see if i can fit the adapter inside the controller :slight_smile:

mine came in today, works great so far with the namco. i’m going to try and run a few tests.

Brought mine to a session last night. Everyone there used it and nobody had any issues with it. Hitting combos no problem, including some one frame links.

OK I did more testing and the Blazepro is awesome, seems lagless, no drop inputs, works well with Hrap1, Hrap2sa, namco ps1 stick, SFAC 3.5v, PS1 Twin blaze dual stick. Just make sure you use a good wired controller, my madcatz wired controller I was using was giving me glitches(yay for madcatz quality) that I blamed on the blazepro but after using a microsoft wired pad I have no problems at all. I highly Recommend this especially for the $13 shipped I paid on ebay. It came with no box just packed inside a padded envelope. Only gripe I have is that there is no xbox home button, that the xconverter has. Im still waiting on my xconverter to test.

Evil twin brother!

its like the uglier but more joystick functional xfps brother…bravo!

try this…

Try hitting both “select” and “start” button on the psx controllers to bring up the home button.

I was wondering whether it has the same problem with the xfps where if you hit the left/right direction at the same time as a med kick or light punch (at the default stick option) a few times that the characters will move by themselves?? A problem which I can say definitely happens on digital psx pcbs, but with analog, it seems less but noticable when the characters do a mini step.

does it work with custom pcb (pc/ps1/ps2)? or just with wellknown one?

Glad you liked it its been tupperwared now :bgrin:

i’ve tried that, no luck with the namco. i might have to be non-lazy and find one of my ps1/ps2 controllers to try. my only issue with the converter as of right now is the lack of home button.

the analog button is home

ahh! ok that would explain why the ol’ namco won’t go home! thanks!

I have a question about these. I only own one wired 360 controller and that is my stick. If I were to use that controller as the plugin to get the ps2 controller working would I then be able to unplug my 360 stick and use that as player 2?

No. It won’t work. The controller used to by pass the security block basically “gives up” its ID to the converter. Two controllers with the same ID can’t be used at the same time

Damn, guess I need to find me a really cheap wired controller.

you can get an official new wired controller for less than 20 shipped on ebay, i’m sure a madcatz is probably cheaper

I picked up the Blazepro Adapter for 10$ on ebay cant wait to try my ps2 stick out with it…

Awesome, that is going to work for me. I love my 360 stick but I have been beating the shit out of my PS2 stick for the past 5 years and want to keep it going.

i completely understand! good luck =)

Good to know this converter works well! I’ve gone ahead and ordered one off Superufo.

Does anyone know how long their cheapest shipping method takes?
