How to use a wired USB Xbox 360 gamepad on Mac OS X 10.10.5?

Many sites refer to d235j's 360Controller-n releases but there are no downloads available

I installed Tattiebogle's 360ControllerInstall but installing and restarting had no effect.

  1. Open the terminal.

    Press Command+Space and type Terminal and press enter/return key.

  2. Install brew if you don't have it yet.

    Write in the Terminal app:

    ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" < /dev/null 2> /dev/null ; brew install caskroom/cask/brew-cask 2> /dev/null
    

    and press enter/return key. Wait for the command to finish.

  3. Use brew to install xbox360-controller-driver.

    brew cask install xbox360-controller-driver
    

    The controller will start working without restart. You might have to disconnect and reconnect the controller and to restart the game using it.

Many thanks to macappstore.org's post for providing the solution.
