Hi, could somebody please send me a link of a PS3 controller which will be compatible with my Macbook Pro (to play games such as Grand Theft Auto with) from http://www.ebay.co.uk or any U.K. website as I do not know which ones will work as I have been told that some of them are not compatible

Thanks guys :)

Just use an official ps3 controller. It should connect via bluetooth and be good to go.

Will this work with MAME/Steam under Windows too? Is the experience generally better or worse than with the XBOX360 gamepad?

Bristol, England.
The official controller can just be paired natively over bluetooth. I have been using it for GTA:SA and it works well.

You'd need motionjoy for it to work on Windows, and I don't know sorry.
