Skip the PS3 LP Debate

[TuRDMaN]

Can we put the PS3 GHIII Les Paul incompatibility debate aside for a minute? I'd like to hear a valid reason why the GH I & II PS2 controllers, using a USB adapter, do not work. They are based on "open standards". They were design for games made by Harmonix. They work on PS3, and are recognized as controllers. WHY aren't they supported as guitar controllers in Rock Band? Even if a patch is not released to fix this, I'm sure Harmonix could release their own USB adapter, netting them even more of our money. I think this is a more viable option than patching Rock Band to work with the GHIII LP.

Um last I heard they do work, just not with the pelican adapter. There is another (actually cheaper) adapter out there supposedly that they do work on RB with.

I have 2 adapters, neither of which are Pelican, and both don't work. If you could show me which adapter is available that does work, I would be eternally grateful :D
