Any suggestions on something easy to use that is close to PS3 controller? Many have suggested Xbox controller but not sure if that too requires downloading drivers in the hopes they work.

Any help is much appreciated :-)
I use the motioninjoy driver. The secret is that there is button in the DS3 Tool that you have to click that actually downloads and installs the driver.

I think it's under the driver tab. Once you do this, look up "Better DS3" and download it from it's website. It's a better controller for the driver.

Another alternative now that PS4 is out is to just buy a DS4 as it doesn't require 3rd party drivers.
