Adding a PS3 AND a PS2 to a cab (Update 4/11: PS3/PS2 Game Compatibility list)

SAD UPDATE:

 I was worried when 2 games wouldn't recognize my wheel as a wheel (it would see it as a reg controller) and my worst nightmare has been realized. I can now confirm that NO PS2 GAMES will see my wheel as driving force wheel. It seems that it is a limitation of the sony ps2 emulator and not of CFW. i did some research and it seem that no ps2 peripherals work in emulation mode so, its not specific to my wheel, CFW or ps2 game.

PSN GAMES and PS3 games read my wheel just fine so, i will keep the ps3 but, im going to go back to my original plan to mod my original PS2 system to netboot. Now my wheel will run triple duty in my cabinet. PS3 system, PS2 system and PC.

For information sake, the following PSN games read my Driving force GT without issue.

Outrun Online Arcade
Daytona USA Online
Sega Rally Online

The PSN version of Crazy Taxi does not have wheel support.

My MCBOOT memory card arrived today and i got it up and running right away. Games are currently running off a USB thumb drive. I tried network loading today but it wasnt working. I will try again but i think im just going to stick an old IDE harddrive in there for simplicity. The best part is that games see my steering wheel as a steering wheel and not just a Dualshock controller (the issue i ran into when loading ps2 games on my PS3). i can finally race with my wheel.

I will update this thread with the stuff need to get a ps2 and/or ps3 running in your cab. I think im going to have all 3 in my cab. ps2/ps3/PC and just use usb extension cable to quickly plug my wheel into whatever im in the mood to play.

Ignore the mess. the control panel is currently being redone to incorporate my new wheel. The PS2 and PS3 will ofcourse be hidden once im done setting up. This is Initial D running of the USB stick on my PS2.

I didnt know you needed a McBoot card, I coulda made you one :p

Im workin on a driving set up myself (racing seat with a stand in front of a TV, not a cab) so I'll be watching how you do the consoles. My Fanatec Wheel works on PS2, PS3, 360, and PC so I plan to try and utilize them all. Already have a backward compatible PS3 (thanks to Haruman) with CFW on it, I was hoping that'd take the place of a PS2, but I have a PS2 as well (thanks to jmike!)

You'd have to PM him, he had a first run PS2 backard compatible PS3 for sale and I bought it, then I took the time to update the CFW and Multiman,etc  psx-scene.com is a good resource.
