Can you use the PS3 controller on the PC?

Can i use my ps3 controller with my pc?

• Also my call of duty world at war says compatible with xbox 360 controller for windows and thats the game that i want it for.

• Answer:

  you can use both 360 and ps3 controller on pc. but, youll need software like xpadder to setup the buttons and assign the configuration. and if you have wireless it can be a pain trying to deal with drivers. 360 controllers are much easier to deal with. or buying a pc controller (usb) that feels and looks like a ps3 is a 20$ option. the 20$ in my opinion is better spent than time trying to hook up a ps3 controller to a pc because ive tried doing it before and didnt care for the hassle..then again ..xpadder is pretty straight forward... its getting your pc to recognize the ps3 controller everytime( in my case..)
