This is a great piece of programming and the source code is available if you want to look at it.ģ. Download and install the OSX driver for the Xbox360 Controller from.
I found Gamepad Companion easier to use and the 45-day trial reinstalls for another 45-days.Ģ. This allows you to use the controller with any game! Gamepad Companion is a 45-day trial and ControllerMate is a 10 day one. Both of these programs allow you to map the controller buttons, d-pad and sticks to keys. Download and install Gamepad Companion for MacOs from or you can also use ControllerMate from. It was, in fact, a relatively easy process.ġ. I enjoy retro games just as much as new ones and I though it would be “interesting” to see if I could get the xbox controller to work on MacOS. Ergonomically, it’s a perfect fit for the hand, the buttons are exactly where you want them and entire controller is just the right size! Constrast this to the Sony PS3 controller which feels small and flimsy to me and just a bit more difficult to use!
You can tell everything about the success of Xbox as a gaming platform from the controller.
