    I'm looking to play games on my MacBook Air. I want to buy a controller. What should I buy? I know that Playstation controllers are bluetooth. Should I buy a PS3 controller or wait until the drivers are released for the PS4 controller? Is it even possible for me to use a 360 controller on a Mac? Thanks.

    If the Xbox one controller works I'd vote for it, I think it is the best controller I have used yet.

    similarly, if you prefer Playstation controllers, go with the Duel shock 4

    At the moment the 360 pad is the best controller for a mac. I sold my Macbook a year ago so I could buy a real PC, so I cannot test my X1 controller on it; I would be surprised if it works as well as the 360 pad at the moment.

    There's software out there to make both controllers work. Just pick the one you like the most.
