Thinking of getting rid of my Sega saturn ps2 pad and replacing it with a saturn usb pad for my ps3. Do the usb saturn pads work with ps2 games on a ps3? Thanks.

Unfortunately, they don't work for PS2 games due to their lack of "PS" button.
When booting PS2 backwards-compatability mode, the PS3 turns off all controllers and you need that PS button to "sign" the controller back in. They work fine for PS1 games, but you'll be screwed if the game makes significant use of the SELECT button, since there isn't one of those either.
I got my genuine one from ebay. Can't remember who from, but they highlighted the difference between fake and real with pictures in the auction.
