I love gaming on my computer and am truly considering purchasing the Logitech Wireless Gamepad F710 due to its great performance and slick look along with its color design. The only question I have before I order it would have to be whether or not it's compatible with Mac? I own a Macbook Pro, they would match perfectly. If not, does anyone know of a way to make it possible with this product?
I think Logitech lists it on thier web page, if it is compatible or not, but usually Logitech stuff does not work all that well on a Mac, or atleast they did not use to, Might have changed so is worth a look ^^

it: Seems like it only has drivers for Windoes, so I would not reccomend buying that one im afraid :\
Logitech have improved there control centre for mouses and such, but they have poor support for macs. I used to use the xbox360 pad, someone made drivers for it on leopard, not sure if they ever updated them though.
is getting a mac for gaming that bad of an idea =/ I had my friends and family get me mad gift cards towards a mac. Recently I have been reading that it can not game for crap. oh well I guess I will eventually buy a desktop in the future.
>Mac >Gaming I think this is what's known as a 'Troll thread'.C_Rule
Why Troll Thread, he merely asked if a mouse/pad would work with his mac?

I wouldn't say "can't game for crap", there are a lot of games out there that work with Mac, but if you are buying a computer for gaming, PC would be a better choice

Not a lot of mainstream ones though. The only big company I know of that develops for both Mac and Windows is Blizzard. Even then, Macs have terrible (gaming) specs for their price. (Note I said specs not value. You can decide the value yourself)

Yes, it is. Put your gift cards towards a something else and build a PC (unless the shop the gift cards are for sells PC hardware).
1. There are not many good games on Mac.
2. To get a Mac even half capable of gaming, you need to spend double what you would on a PC.

No, mainstream ones sometimes don't make it to MAC, but there is still a wide selection if Mac is the only way to go for someone...
To avoid having this thread turn into yet another "Mac is terrible for gaming!"-"No they're not!", I think I will close this, especially since it is a bit off-topic for this forum anyway... Hardware inquiries belong in the Hardware Forum. :)
