I was wondering about USB controllers for my iMac. If I already have one that works on a Wondows comp, can I use it on my Mac? Will I need drivers for it? Is thre any place you would recommend that I could buy a cheap USB controller for my mac?

All I really want is a functioning USB controller for my Mac. If I could just use a 360 wired (Or wireless, doesn't matter to me), that would be perfect...

Any suggestions?
 
It is all dependent on the game. Some games have support for game pads. Unlike OS9 where the OS did all that work, OSX passes that off to the applications. Best thing I can say is to try.

Oh, I actually just found a driver to use for my 360 controller. Works like a charm, and it saved me some money. :)
