So now i've got Dead Space 3 and Battlefield 3 on Origin and Dead Space, Mirrors Edge and Crysis 2 Maximum Edition on Steam. Holy Christmas Batman!


To be a PC gamer and thus save a fortune on games!


These are all great games but some will have to wait until I finish my console games outside of Battlfield. It is glorious though. All I need now is a good client to use my PS3 controller with my laptop. Know any good ones? I hate using the mouse unless the game is FPS.


Try using these:

I haven't personally used PS3 controllers on the PC, I prefer the SNES controller for platformers. (Keyboard+Mouse for everything else!)

I wouldn't recommend Motioninjoy. The thing is practically malware and the drivers (once installed) are really hard get rid of. It also needs to be online to work (standard version) and sometimes pops opens ads in your browser. BetterDS3 I hear, is fine though.

I personally did this. Took me a few minutes to install and it works like a charm. Works by tricking Windows into thinking that the DS is a Xbox 360 signed controller. Alternatively, there are other ways of getting a DS3 to work on a PC but they usually involve a lot of dabbling and generally take more effort.

All you just need a standard Micro USB cable or bluetooth device/adapter, a Dual Shock 3 controller.. and you are good to go.
