A keyboard with a PS/2 connector...

[Gulshog]

Will the Playstation 2 recognize a USB/PS/2 adaptor?

No one knows?

I dont really think poeple know what you mean. All you need is a USB keyboard, and plug it into the ps2's usb port. In game stores they have a pretty cheap one called "the power board" that is only 20 bucks.

I picked up a non-USB keyboard by mistake. It's plug is called PS/2, an old type. But, they make PS/2 to USB adaptors. Nevermind, I'll just return it like the idiot that I am.

Yes, it will work. It is what I have used since RPGM2's release.

I use a ps2/usb adaptor for both my laptop and my ps2 so yes, it works.

When I went in to reserve my copy of RPG Maker 3 at EB Games, I found a used NYKO iType 2 controller with a mini-keyboard built into it for $12.00. Not a bad setup, really. Nice to be able to work from the controller without switchin from controller to keyboard.

Those don't work too well...

Seems like the keys are small on those things.

if you want a keyboard/controller hybrid, just get the logitec netplay controller. it's around 40 dollars, but it rocks.

Well, so much for my crappy controller find...

The game store near me said those were out of production when I tried to order one.

I guess I'll do some research.

Any suggestions?

Well, I just got the Logitech PS2 keyboard from amazon.com.

Re: A keyboard with a PS/2 connector...

yeah me too. it's a little akward but it works just fine.

Re: A keyboard with a PS/2 connector...

Thanks, I'll check into it.

I just hate using credit cards online.

But if the idiots I rely on for information are that wrong (it's not used on Amazon, is it?), I guess I've little other option.

Thanks again for answering.

Peace.
