Using a PC? Not a PS2 controller to a PC but the other way around. I'm sure it's possible but the technical details are way over my head but I'm sure reverse engineering home-made Ps2-to-PC set-ups would work...

Also I ask this because I was watching videos on my PS2... through my PC... through my PSP. I then tried a game. Noticed there was a bit of lag, but it was live-able. I had an idea of combining the PSP app wificontroller and the VLC TV program to allow you to play other consoles on your PSP. Hell, combining just VLC client and wifi controller would allow you to emulate N64 games using your PC at pretty much full speed(turning down the VLC cache seemed to make it almost run full speed).

Nice idea, we could build this into yet another homebrew software. I could come up with some diagrams to demo how it works. Also how would you connect the consoles output to the PC, via tuner or something??

This could be made to have your consoles portably accessible, sorta like the Sling.
