How to Use a PS3 Controller on a PC

One industrious modder out there has created a simple program so you can use your PS3’s SIXAXIS controller on a PC like a game pad. Here’s what you’ll need to do:

  • 1. Download this archive and install the filter driver (libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.10.1.exe).
  • 2. Unpack ps3sixaxis_en.exe
  • 3. Plug the SIXAXIS into your PC.
  • 4. Run ps3sixaxis_en.exe once.
  • 5. Push the PS button on the SIXAXIS once if it doesn’t see it straight away.
  • Unfortunately, the motion sensing features aren’t possible on the PC (not yet). But still, this is pretty easy way to net yourself a free usable game pad.

NOTE: SEEMS TO WORK BEST ON WINDOWS XP
