Let me start off by saying that there is little-to-no information about this topic on the web with the exception of one or two comments in various threads on this forum. It definitely warrants a dedicated discussion.

THE XBOX ONE CONTROLLER CAN BE USED WITH MADDEN 08 PC.
So what we're going to be doing is fooling a pre-xbox one game module into recognizing a device which was non-existent when it was released. Everyone here knows and understands that the XBOX 360 controllers and XBOX One controllers are fairly identical right? 'Right...'
So here's the short version, and I'm not going to get into the long, extensive, list of failed attempts at resolving this which I've performed.
1. Do the registry edit. You're going to go to run> 'regedit', or otherwise open your windows 7/vista/8/8.1/10 registry. BE ADVISED. Should you modify the wrong file here, or accidentally delete something, you could do serious damage to the infrastructure of your operating system.
- Go to FIND (Ctrl + F) 'OEMName'. This is the generic Microsoft registry name for the XBOX One controllers.
- Modify OEMName's value to 'XBOX 360 Controller for Windows'. It probably looked something like 'Controller (XBOX One For Windows)' before.
*** NOTE: There's at least three variations of that phrase in parenthesis which work for most games. This one worked for me.
*** Note2: You're not RENAMING 'OEMName', you're right clicking> Modify value, and pasting 'XBOX 360 Controller for Windows' without the parenthesis, and then saving. You will do this for the new folders in this directory which spawn with new controller connects as well.
2. Boot the controllers before Madden 08's mainapp.exe, then on the bottom right of the dashboard go to File>Profile>Controllers... You get it. You should see options for Keyboard, Keyboard + Mouse, and 'Xbox 360 Controller'. Guess which one you want?
3. When you're scrolling through play menus, simply hold the Left Trigger.
In the STANDARD configuration, once you've selected a play, you'll notice that the sidebars (options & audibles etc) are forced onto the screen for each controller player after you're on the field. This function will be negated by simply pressing the Left Trigger half way and releasing it. Once those menus disappear, the Left Trigger will no longer interfere with your gameplay. (At least not as far as I've noticed).
So as sad as I am to report that I have had ZERO success in disabling the analog functions through drivers and calibration , it's actually 100% playable with the Xbox One controller if you can understand these two points. (At least in two weeks' gameplay I haven't found it to impede anything).Hope this saves some googlers a headache (and Yes, I'm using Windows 8.1 with the iso-disc version, and it worked before I installed the FF XV mods). This modification appears to NOT affect games which recognize the Xbox-One controller itself. Also, for you OCD cats, this method is highly advantageous over an alternative joypad configuration file mod or xpadder etc as it will display the corresponding buttons on the screen nice and professionally.updated as of 8-31-12
* Generic PS controller (only) setup & button image pack link
* Offline patch for the regular PS3 controller (to use MotionInJoy while disconnected from internet). Install the .0.6.0005 program below first.
for the initial set-up of a regular ps3 controller,
1. download Version 0.6.0005 (make sure by looking at file save name).
* 'How can I tell if my computer is running a 32-bit or a 64-bit version of Windows?'
- if you dont have winrar, download it from here and install.
- double-click the motionjoy download, continue thru, JUST click on 'extract to', continue thru, and it should eventually extract it to where ever you downloaded the original download file to. then click on the new install file.
2. plug in your ps3 controller with its usb cord. download any software needed automatically.
3. run the new motionjoy/ds3 tool program.
4. click on 'driver manager' tab.
5. check the box next to 'playstation controller', and then 'load driver'.
6. be patient and let it all install properly. then click on 'install all'. be patient again.
7. click on 'profiles' tab at very top.
8. select 'Xbox 360 Controller Emulator' under 'Select one mode:',
9. and then, right next to that, click on 'options'.
10. where you see dualshock 3 controller highlighted in dark pink, change that to xbox 360 controller.
11. hit save changes on that same screen.
12. go back to 'profiles' (tab).
13 click 'enable'.
14. next, and also whenever you want to use your ps3 controller for madden in the future, if you havent unplugged your controller, make sure 'xbox controller' is selected under 'Select one mode:', and 'enable', and then make sure that orange loading bar is finished loading @ '%100'.
15. leave motioninjoy running, begin madden.
16. in the controller section in madden just switch 'keyboard' to 'xbox 360 controller' and you should be all set. reminder; always start the ds3 tool, properly, BEFORE starting madden, otherwise the controller will not show up.
* if you unplug your controller and want to use it again, plug in controller, 'load driver', 'install all', go back to 'profiles' tab & 'enable'.
- TIP: if you click on the 'options' tab and check the box next to 'Placing it in system tray when click close button', itll help your game run smoother by safetly minimizing the ds3 tool program window.
as for madden controller configuration, you shouldnt have to change anything but i would make sure your resolution is at least 1080x720 (via madden system options) to help the controller deadzone act perfectly. if your right analog is off, go into xbox360 controller options and toggle the right stick x & y reverse option.
