DIY USB to PS3 (to) PS3 to Xbox 360 converter
Posted: Mon Aug 29, 2011 11:59 am
I just had this little idea. In theory you should be able to use a device like the XCM Cross Fire Converter for the Xbox 360 with the DIY USB to PS3 adapter (I believe it's similar or the same method used, just the other way around, when people use the XIM with the PS3)
*** Skip to 2m 59s ***
My only concern is whether or not the converter requires an original PS3 controller. If it supports third party USB PS3 controllers I'd image it'll work right out of the box.
I'm gonna investigate this some more because I've been getting a lot of PMs on YouTube regarding Xbox 360 support in GIMX, so this could potentially be a temporary solution/workaround, until there perhaps is official support. Unfortunately the converter is $80~100+ the places I've looked so I doubt most people would be willing to go for it.
