Does it work for any other games?

You may not have the drivers loaded for it. I use an afterglow 360 controller. You have to manualy instal the drivers.

I'll find a link to the tutorial for you.

@Spawn
this is a neat idea, except that link to microsoft doesn't work, and also that's for a 360 Afterglow; this person (and I) are using PS3 Models. not 360s.

I know the shortcut i click on is Xpadder from xpadder.com. I haven't used it in a while, so I'd have to fuss with it again to remember how it works, but I did eventually get it to work.

Try holding down the start button and then hold the reset. My Afterglow was not recognized by older x input games like gta3 and San Andres. By doing so I now use my controller on both.
