Windows 8 and PS3 Dual shock

http://www.motioninjoy.com/ This is what I use to play with DS3 on my PC. DS3 does not work without 3rd party tools on PC.

I would highly recommend against motion joy. I now consider it bloatware/malware. (I had as much trouble getting rid of it as I've heard malware takes.)

Try The Scarlet Crush Drivers instead.

The drivers are even signed.
