They have a mind-boggling array of these type of things at
Lik-Sang, too - even ones to connect PS2 controllers to 3DO, PC Engine and NeoGeo.
Also they can spell converter. I know people's experience with them has been a bit random, though.

Yeah, I got a PS2 pad converter for my xbox just to play Tony Hawks, after years of honing my skills on the PS1 playing it with a mahoosive xbox controller made me vewy angwy

The adapters are out of stock just now. Did you pinch the last one bobbins?
Without wanting to plug Play yet again, I like the fact that all their prices are inclusive of delivery from the start, instead of discovering really late that your new game will cost an extra tenner to have put through your letterbox.

You too huh? My copy of BEEF2 took 8 weeks I think before it finally arrived.

I got mine from Game in town in a mere matter of minutes, and for a penny under £20 too. I often forget that real shops are sometimes still quite good for things other than food and clothes.

I need to go out at Lunchtime to buy a new frying pan, there is a Game on the high street, do I:
A: Go out and buy a frying pan, look in game, go back to work
B: Go out and buy a frying pan AND BF2
C: Shop for a frying pan in Game, not find one and buy BF2 instead.
D: Buy BF2, take it home, try and make an omlette in it.
E: Stay in all lunch time cos it's cold and wet outside.

I want to say E:, but I'm going to go for B: instead. I need a new frying pan too actually. My old one was cheap and shite, and has buckled a lot. Since we now have electric hobs and not gas, this is now shit as it takes forever to heat up properly.

I'm starting to feel guilty about trundling off-topic now (this is the Grid Wars review, and nothing to do with BEEF2), but after playing BEEF and COD I really feel that BEEF would benefit from the bullet 'whanging' effects that COD has. I usually only know I'm being shot at in BEEF when I die. In COD it's made extremely clear by the sound of lots of pieces of metal hurtling past you.
