i have a stock model ps2

i was wandering if it is possible to use a usb splitter cable so that i can use a usb keyboard and usb mouse per port for both players in unreal tournament.

I say to try it, as it shouldn't draw on that much power; but if you do have some trouble, just buy a multi-port hub. That would be my plan if I were you.

The question in my mind here (which is why I didn't post) is whether or not UT will properly recognize the ports. Some PS2 games are rather specific about which port stuff goes in (I know KBM II decides which side you're on based on which port the keyboard controller is plugged into) and plugging in something that increases the number of ports on the PS2 may cause the game to not recognize the stuff.

I have heard that it's possible but I can't confirm that. You might try GameFaqs.com.
