Xbox 360 Controller Now Mac Compatible
With the release of a compatible driver for the Xbox 360 controller onto PC-based systems, someone decided they would make the bulky 360 controller dual-compatible with both PCs and Macs. As an ongoing project at tattiebogle.net, the initial release has been slowly revamped twice in the past 5 months to allow for directional pad controls and the ability to recognize extra vendor/product ids.
One of the most interesting parts of this story is that Microsoft didn’t develop this first. With everyone pushing to develop anything and everything for the 360 and its accessories, one company that has seen the short end of the development has been Microsoft. Even though Microsoft didn’t develop the Mac compatible driver for the 360 controller, they still have many secrets up their proverbial sleeve that they will unleash when the time is right.
