Works Perfect!
I'm very pleased. So far it
has worked with all Mac games I've tried: X-Plane 9 (the prime reason I
wanted a gamepad), HyperTank, StuntMani, RC Helicopter Simulator, Colin
McRae Rally, Flat Out 2 and Halo.
I even get the 'rumble,' with
the one programs I have that supports that feature (Colin McRae Rally).
After many years of having a Mac computer it's something new to have
access to so many games and this is my first such gamepad and/or
joystick thing. And it's fun and quite a new experience at the computer:
real video arcade quality with some of these programs.
On the
Mac it installs itself on the System Preference Panel, so you can check
that all the buttons and sticks work. The Big Warning -- thought -- is
not with the gamepad but not all the software programs are so clear
about how to set it up, assign the sticks (um...especially the 3-year
old Helicopter simulator was a hassle to get right and still seems 'too
sensitive,').
So setup for each program will take a little
learning and I'd check to be sure the program says it will work with a
gamepad (Bioshock Demo, for example, seems to indicate it only work with
the X-box gamepad)
But, the iShockX, itself: 5-stars; plug and
play; it works.
A great gamepad for a
mac
After 25 years of using PC's I
decided to buy a Macbook Pro. Great machine, anyway, I wanted to play
some games on it and I had played tomb raider back in the days. I need a
gamepad to go with it. I saw good reviews on this one, ordered one and
received it, it didn't work. I called Macally tech support and they told
me my gamepad was bad and to get a return. I contacted Amazon and
within an hour I had a prepaid return label and a new one that had been
shipped. Got the new one, worked the first time. Took a little while to
get used to the controls but it works fine!
It Just Works...
Great gamepad for the Mac. As
always, good quality from Macally. Works great under Mac OS X 10.6.X
