I know that all of you that play on the PC don't want that, but to be honest, you should want ANYTHING to keep people playing and a way to open up to new players. Consoles may not have the power or the graphics, but the do have the mainstream and simplification. Insert disc, pick up a controller, play. No configuration, No Button Mapping, just game playing. Also, Speaking of button mapping... I still can't get this 360 controller to work on my PC.
    Awe!..But here is the thing, it's been mentioned many times in many different threads on how to get those controllers to work on your PC and also been mentioned in many different ways to do it too.

    Still can't get it to work, so... makes no difference if it's been mentioned.

    the xbox 360 controller is plug and play. The only time you have to do anything tricky is if you want to use the triggers instead of the bumpers for macros.

    And that's exactly what I want to do. At this point it's all muscle memory and I want the same flow for the PC

    Not sure if you're willing to buy a PC gamepad for XI, but I've found the Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2 to be a great controller for it. I actually just bought a practically brand new one off of eBay for around 40 dollars recently (they don't produce these anymore), not because I needed a new one yet, but just as a way to future-proof my experience. Logitech has a newer version of this controller as well (the F710 and the corded F310) which is still in production but I prefer the older version for the feel of the trigger buttons.

    You do need to install drivers for them, and map some buttons, but in the end it's really just a minor inconvenience. All three of the controllers listed above allow you to access all of the buttons (including the triggers) without any need for 3rd party solutions.

    Map the triggers with Joy2Key to Ctrl and Alt. That will make them work as macro buttons. There are multiple options to make them work. If they aren't working for you, you are doing them wrong, and you may want to set up a Skype/TeamViewer session with someone that has made it work to get assistance.

    I did that, and it still wasn't getting them to show up as macros. I tried it with my Xbox, PS3, and my PS4 Controllers. :/
