WAIT FOR SOMEONE ELSE to make one. Pelican says it doesn't support rumble, soooo.....might as well wait and get a fully functional adapter.

no, it doesnt work with Guitar Hero or Guitar Her 2. There are many issues with this, and there are plenty of forums that discuss the issues with this.
So in all, this article is bad, as there is still no adapater to work properly with Guitar Hero ;(

Saying it doesn't work is an overstatement. It "does" work but with limited functionality.

Yea I picked one up before I heard anything, biggest waste of 15 bucks ever. Its an untested piece of crap. Once you actually figure out how it is your supposed to get the buttons to actually work, its delayed by a second, so you have to hit the notes before they come. And to actually hit notes for example, the "green" chord button is only active when you are strumming. You can't hold it ahead of time. So it just is more of a pain. I would rather just play it on PS2 anyways. Thanks for nothing Pelican.

lol @ killarclown! You are so right man.

Also coming from a guy who can actually play REAL guitar pretty well (Trust me I can), when i see people playing guitar hero it makes me laugh cos they look like fools. Or some baby playing with one of those toy guitars where you press a button and it plays a melody.

Playing real guitar aint that hard if you got half a brain and some rhythm! You could at least just learn some basic chords - most chicks wont know the difference!

If by "limited functionality" you mean doesn't work at all.
Then you are correct.
AS OF THIS TIME NO ADAPTER IS PERFECT.
THIS IS ONE OF THOSE.

Guitar Heros Adapter.... $14.95
Guitar Heros II Game.... $79.99
Playing Guitar Heros on my PS3... WORTHLESS!

I purchesed all this stuff today during lunch...
... now after reading these and other reviews on different forums, I'm gonna return it all and wait for GH3.

i don't know what people are bitching about... i bought this adapter and it works fine with my PS3. Once you set it up right. Make sure you switch it to GH2 if you are playing Guitar Hero 2... Everything works fine, including the whammy.

For those that are curious, the adapter DOES work with windows. Makes for a nice game controller for those that enjoy the ps2 controller feel.

FYI, I'm using the nyko i-type2, whose keyboard also works fine in windows :)
