A small amount of online PS2 games are actually compatible with USB ethernet adapters, such as SOCOM: US Navy Seals and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. The following product is a USB ethernet adapter that's specifically designed for use with the PS2, and the front of the box lists some of the games that work with it:

But even if you are only interested in those few games, and want to save money by buying a cheaper USB adapter, it is possible that those games' on-disc drivers don't support the chipset of the particular USB ethernet adapter that you are looking at. So either way, you're probably better off buying an official PS2 network adapter.

yeah, i think ill buy the official ps2 adapter, the costumers reviews are negatives.
