Is this game controller compatible?

I like steam, I got the game off of it. It is a good experience I downloaded Max Payne 3. I love the graphics and they are PlayStation 3 graphic quality. I brought a controller for my windows 8. I tried using my controller and it does not work. Why doesn't it work and is there something that I am doing that is keeping my controller from working? I brought a steel series controller. I thought I read that this game is controller usable. It is impossible to play with a keyboard having to memorize every control on the keyboard. Also using the mouse making sharp turns while shooting the bad guys. What can I do? I am highly disappointed. Is there any help that you guys on here can give me? Thank you very much.

Does a regular x-box controller work that I already have for my x-box with cord or do I need to buy a windows xbox controller with an adapter? If I need to buy an x-box controller with an adapter can I use a x-box controller that I already have with my x-box and buy the adapter piece off amazon seperately? What EXACTLY do I have to do?

How do you shoot so accurately in this game? This is half the battle, if you know how to aim you got this game beat. Thank you.

by using a mouse and not a controller^^ i like to use controllers for platformers a some other genres, but shooters? just pratices some more with, you will soon shoot a lot better.
if it is too hard you can take a look at the aim assist options.
you can change the keybinds at any time btw, just mentioning it since you seem new to pc gaming.
another thing, get a decent mouse, one designed for gaming perhaps.

an adapter should suffice.

I use the X-box controller. I am new to PC, I want to get better but I need to learn the controls. It has been awhile since I owned a game console and never really played game on PC. Got any tips?
