Just a simple USB mouse, that doesn't require extra drivers will work.

If you use something complicated, like the Microsoft Intellimouse, I doubt it will work.

Sure it will. USB hardware rarely requires drivers. This Microsoft Intellieye works, as does my Logitech cordless RF keyboard and RF optical mouse.

Oh right, ok. I hadn't actually tried it, but I had been advised by someone not to.

I didn't realise you could use a mouse on PS2 games. Which games are compatible?

I made a list once, but briefly:

Half Life
Unreal
TimeSplitters, possibly
Come to think of it, Fur Fighters probably

Plus I wouldn't be surprised if the RTS/PnC style games do. I know there's at least one.

Oh, and don't bother with and "Mouse for use with PS2" things, they cost £20 and are just £5 USB mice in black. You can get a lovely optical USB for that, and that's PC World's prices.
