Can I make an Xbox 360 controller emulate a PS3 controller on PC?

I have an Xbox 360 gamepad, which I want to use as a PS3 gamepad. I want to make it compatible with the game Shin Sangoku Musou 6 Moushouden (Dynasty Warriors 7) on PC. Is there any emulator software can do this?

To clarify, I am trying to find a PS3 Controller emulator. I know there is an Xbox 360 Controller emulator, I am trying to find a similar one but for PS3 controller.

I am doing this because Shin Sangoku Musou 6 Moushouden (Dynasty Warriors 7) on PC supports the PS3 controller best. When I use my Xbox 360 gamepad it doesn't recognize the buttons correctly and fully, and vibration also doesn't work.

It may be easier to invest a couple of dollars and buy a second hand PS3 controller from Gamestop or similar store.

It wouldn't be that expensive and you can have a controller for any other titles you will get.

I believe MotionInJoy allows you to emulate a X360 controller using a PS3 controller if that is what you are looking for.

If not, MotionInJoy is basically the unofficial driver for PS3 controllers on Windows.

This is a driver which will make your ps3 controller recognized on PC if that is what you are looking for, if not than sorry..

To me it seems you actually have to get a ps3 controller. Sorry. I cannot find an emulator. I think it might be because of the possible button differences (triangle,square,circle,x, rather than a,b,x,y). I know this isn't what your looking for, and I really am sorry... I spent quite a while trying to find a sufficient answer but couldn't find a single thing, except for one youtube video that I cannot seem to find again, and wasn't super helpful anyway (I believe it was just using a ps3 controller with an emulator, but titled incorrectly).

I believe that what you are looking for is a different driver needed for your XBox controller. Visit this page for the official direct-input drivers.

Do note that:

-The left and right trigger buttons will act as a single button, not independently -The vibration effects will not be available -Querying for headset devices will not be available
