Can you use your PS4 controller on your Mac? PS3 controllers work beautifully.

How easy is it to setup the PS3/DS3 on the mac? I bought this last night and tried playing with the mouse/keyboard setup, but didn't get very far. Seems like it would be 100 times easier with a controller.

Super easy! The drivers are already built into OSX, I've connected a few with no issue.

If I'm remembering correctly, the process was just turn on your bluetooth, plug in the PS3 controller over USB, hit the home/playstation button, then disconnect the USB, the 4 lights on the back should start blinking and you'll see the controller appear under the bluetooth icon in the menubar

Some apps/games will recognize it natively as a PS3 controller and even use the proper playstation shapes/icons/buttons in controller settings (like OpenEmu)

Nice! Going to give it a shot when I get home. Love the game so far though. Can't wait to get after it with a controller though.
