Just for anyone who was struggling like me to get the 360 driver working on Mountain Lion. I'd like to share a finding. Credit goes to Garret Main on YouTube.

------------------- This information was taken from this YouTube video: This method works on Mountain Lion 10.8.4. I tested it on my Retina MacBook Pro. Make an account on Download KextBeast from: Download this uninstaller: (removes installation of other drivers) Download version 0.8 of the 360 driver: Make sure your 360 controller is unplugged Extract KextBeast to the desktop Open the terminal and type in 'sudo sh', with no quotes Enter your password Then type 'sh ' with no quotes (don't forget the space). Drag the uninstall script to the terminal and hit enter (this will do uninstall the older versions) Now open the the 0.8 version of the 360 controller driver.

Go through the installation steps. It will probably say the installation failed but don't worry because it worked anyway (confirm this by seeing if the 360 preference is in your preferences) Navigate to: /System/Library/Extensions/ Copy the 360Controller.kext to the desktop and then delete the original Right click the 360Controller.kext on the desktop and click 'Show package contents' Navigate to Contents and then open the Info.plist in a text editor.

Pick one of the keys that refers to a 360 controller. For example: BigBenController CFBundleIdentifier com.mice.driver.Xbox360Controller IOCFPlugInTypes F4545CE5-BF5B-11D6-A4BB-0003933E3E3E 360Controller.kext/Contents/PlugIns/Feedback360.plugin IOClass Xbox360ControllerClass IOKitDebug 65535 IOProviderClass IOUSBDevice idProduct 1537 idVendor 5227 You can pick any of the controllers between the and marks. Now we need to change the vendor and product IDs to match your controller. Plug in your 360 controller. Click the apple icon in the top left corner of the screen and go to 'About This Mac' Click more info->system report-> USB Find the 360 controller and click it. You will see product and vendor ids.

Replace these values with the ones in the Info.plist file. Using the same example as above, let's say my Product ID is 0xf900 and Vendor ID is 0x1bad. We would now have: BigBenController CFBundleIdentifier com.mice.driver.Xbox360Controller IOCFPlugInTypes F4545CE5-BF5B-11D6-A4BB-0003933E3E3E 360Controller.kext/Contents/PlugIns/Feedback360.plugin IOClass Xbox360ControllerClass IOKitDebug 65535 IOProviderClass IOUSBDevice idProduct 0xf900 idVendor 0x1bad You can also change the name to match your controller if you'd like. For example, mine said Afterglow so (again this is optional) I changed it to: Afterglow CFBundleIdentifier com.mice.driver.Xbox360Controller IOCFPlugInTypes F4545CE5-BF5B-11D6-A4BB-0003933E3E3E 360Controller.kext/Contents/PlugIns/Feedback360.plugin IOClass Xbox360ControllerClass IOKitDebug 65535 IOProviderClass IOUSBDevice idProduct 0xf900 idVendor 0x1bad Now save the Info.plist file.

Make sure the 360Controller.kext file is on the desktop so it can be found by KextBeast. Open KextBeast and install Open Finder and navigate back to System->Library->Extensions and make sure the 360Controller.kext was installed there. Now unplug your 360 controller, reboot your machine, plug it back in once you're done rebooting and then you're done! ---------- Hope this helps others out. I followed the steps given by thed0ctor and as a result my xbox controller has become extinct. It was working fine on windows platform, now it won't be recognised at all.
