How to Use an Xbox 360 Controller with Your Mac



If you like to play games on your Mac you may tire of using the keyboard and mouse and not like the available third-party controllers available for OS X. Instructables user fungus amungusshows how you can adapt either a wireless or wired Xbox 360 controller to work with your Mac.
The basic process is the same for wired or wireless controller use with the exception that you'll need a $14 wireless gaming receiver if you want to be wireless. You'll use a USB driver utility called Tattieboogle to recognize either the controller or receiver and the $5 app Joystick Mapperto get the controllers working. After that you should be good to go, but some games you might have to spend a few minutes remapping the buttons before playing.
