PS2 Controller Hack Nets Codes for GTA

Posted by Zonk on from the imaginative-gaming dept.

glengineer writes "Gotta love edisoncarter for his cheesy, brute force, and effective hack of the PS2 controller to discover cheats for Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas. He used the parallel port of his PC connected to relays on the PS2 controller to step thru the combinations of button pushing needed to obtain cheats that were not released by Rockstar."

    I believe the controller vibrates when you hit a cheat.
