I think not, because there's the problem with the steering wheels too. In acc. to Thomas Jackermeier from Fanatec (company which makes steering wheels for PC, PS3 and XBox360), there's another electronic in it than for the PC compatible ones, which are in the majority of cases also compatible to the PS3. All wheels for the PC, instead of the new PWTS, aren't compatible with the XBox360, but a lot of them are compatible for the PS3 too. So it could be possible, that some FFB flight sticks for the PC are compatible for the PS3 too.

PWTS = Porsche Wheel Turbo S

He said (translated from german to english):
The electronics of the PWTS is doubled. At starting the wheel, you have to decide, whether starting the XBox360 electronics or the PC/PS3 electronics of the wheel. Therefore is the PWTS more expensive than the Fanatec Porsche GT3 RS Wheel.
