no really i don't know of one that works for both. this is a nice one for PS2

and you could always get the PS2 to XBox adapter or XBox to PS2 adapter.

Hmmm.... I've never seen that adapter before. Have you used one? I'm tempted to get one of these to use with the Logitech wheel.

Any thoughts?

For the Xbox there's the Fanatec Speedster 3. Teamxbox.com recently did a review of the wheel which seems to have settings built-in for a lot of the popular driving games including the most recent release Forza Motorsport.

"As with most wheel’s table mounting systems, the Speedster 3 ForceShock does not function well on a surface that is overly thin. You may have to shim the table or mounting surface with scraps of wood, or cardboard to build up some thickness for a secure clamping force. The Swedes like their furniture thin, so for our office’s Ikea table, we used the newer slim-line PS2 as our shim, and it performed admirably in its new, under-the-table role."

the adapters do just what they say they do. i've used a few of them for the consoles and one for the keyboard and mouse to the xbox.
