Mac’s trackpad and keyboards are not the best controllers in the world, so if you want to play some games, better get yourself an Xbox One Controller. It is simply the best gamepad you can play with. Comparing with Windows 10, where Xbox One Controller is natively supported, macOS works a bit strange with Microsoft’s gamepads. Luckily enough, connecting Xbox One Controller to Mac is very simple. Sometimes it works natively and wirelessly, but sometimes it requires wired connection and third-party app (driver). This article has all you need to know about connecting Xbox One Controller to Mac.
Tip. Xbox One Controller works better with Windows 10, so our advice is to use Windows 10 (Bootcamp is fine). In addition to better gamepad compatibility, you will get better performance in your games.How to Connect Xbox One Controller to Mac Wirelessly?
And with the release of Soul Calibur IV, and games like SF IV,SF HD, and Marvel vs Capcom 3 on the horizon, I needed an arcade style stick.

First, make sure you have an updated controller which supports Bluetooth connection. As we mentioned in the article How to Connect Xbox One Controller to PC, only update Xbox One Controller (2016) supports Bluetooth. You can find out which model you have using the picture below:
*Make sure Bluetooth on your Mac is enabled. You can simply ask Siri to turn it on, use menu bar or open System Preferences > Bluetooth and press Turn Bluetooth On.
*Now it is time to take your Xbox One Controller and press big Xbox One button at the center of the gamepad. It will start blinking slowly. At the back of the gamepad, there is a small button in between LB and RB. Press and hold it until the Xbox logo on the gamepad starts blinking swiftly.

So I got an amazon gift card for my birthday and considered finally getting an xbox controller for my gaming PC's. Atm I'm still running windows 7, eventually planning to get a better rig with windows 10 probably.
The main question is, I'd like to buy this controller here. https://www.amazon.com/PDP-Afterglow-Prismatic-Wired-Controller-Xbox/dp/B00ZJRHSRW/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1526583871&sr=8-9&keywords=xbox+wired
Being that it's third party, I wasn't too sure about a lot of things, but a friend tells me that Xbox One wired controllers won't work on Windows 7 but will work on anything newer. I was wondering if this was true or if there were any work-arounds? I'd love to get this controller for now and as something I'll be able to use in the future on my newer PC. Just wanna make sure I'm not wasting money on a controller that can't even function on my PC atm. All the more if it's from a third party where maybe even microsoft's drivers for Xbox controllers wouldn't support it or something? Any help would be appreciated, I've been looking around and my results yield 50/50 results so far x.x;
EDIT: Just asked the manufacturer if it'd work on windows 7 now(didn't think I'd get an answer). Manufacturer replied 'Yes, you can download the required driver for Windows 7 here https://support.pdp.com/hc/en-us/articles/218228088-Does-this-controller-work-on-a-PC-'
So I'll go off that and try it out, maybe I'll post in a week or something to let people know if it works or not. Thanks for the replies though!Windows 7 Xbox 360 Controller Driver64% Upvoted
