My gf loves the Wii, but it's hard to get her interested in the PS3. Then came along GH III which she loves, only problem is that it'd be nice to do co-op which is tough to do right now without another controller. Also it'd be nice to play the older games. I've heard ppl say you can use a wired GH II controller, but does the wireless one work too??

So only a wired controller will work via adapter to play on the PS3?? Can anyone who tried it confirm or deny it?

I bought the PS2 guitar hero package and an adaptor from radioshack. It doesnt work for the PS3.

Im pretty sure its because the ps2 guitar doesnt have a ps button. But regardless, it doesnt work. I tried it.

You can use the GH2 controller on the PS3, but only for the old GH games (1&2). However when you do this the whammy bar doesnt work, there seems to be a bit of lag not affected by TV calibration and the strum bar works opposite (so in menus flicking up makes you go down and vice versa). Without the whammy though I find it mostly useless. I do intend to try it on Rock Band to see if it works for the bass but other than that its a wash.
