Gamepad companion ps3 pc update#
You will need some third party software to get the most out of it.Įven on the Windows side it's being phased out (last update was in 2010) since all new games use "X" mode (which is basically the 360 controller software) instead. It only works in "D" mode and there's no Mac version that I'm aware of. Sorry for the stealth edit on my previous post, I thought I changed it before anyone saw it. Just didn't know if I'd have to buy something like that or if the software is included in the box. Is that something that comes in the box or something I'd download separately? The reason I ask is because there is an app on the Mac App Store called GamePad Companion that costs $8 and will allow you to set up different controllers. It says "customizable with profiler software". I'm looking at the F510 on Amazon right now, but am not clear on something. Like I said, it's good in that it splits the difference between the two in sizing with a stick layout that's more Sony-like. I haven't had experience with that one as I don't do PC gaming far away enough from the screen to make wireless worthwhile at present. The F310 is the non-rumble version and the F710 is the rumble model but wireless. The wired style 360 controller that you used to get with the cheapo version of the console *do* talk over USB. IMHO that's almost as big of a fail as having the controller not compliant with the pre-existing standard for controllers on Windows. The controller doesn't talk over USB at all. The one sold with the console includes a USB connection for charging. They're different, but you can upgrade the console one to the special dongle. Yeah, the huge 'gotcha' with the 360 controller is that there's a bluetooth PC connection kit for Windows and a wireless controller sold with the console. Hmm, might have to go PS3 because it uses bluetooth and doesn't require any driver installs like the 360 controller.
