 Works Perfect! April 27, 2010

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 September 5, 2010

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!
 Great! Can't wait to use in a game. June 21, 2010

Set up is easy and diagnostics indicate it works fine. Now I'm just waiting for Steam or Valve to enable Joystick/Game pad functionality for Orange Box.
