As I plan on using Steam Controller or Xbox 360 for the two upcoming triple a racing games in future.

I think kernel 4.3 has drivers for the controller, for other kernels you have to have Steam running for the controller to work, and you need to be in Big Picture Mode to configure it (you could also edit file with the default mapping I guess). You can add your GOG games to Steam though. I've been playing some Witcher (GOG version) recently, added the PlayOnLinux launcher to Steam, customized the configuration, actually works quite well with the controller.

If you want a challenge you should map the left touch pad as a virtual steering wheel. Once you get used to it it is pretty epic. Reminds me of the special joypad you could get for Ridge Racer 4 on the Playstation.
Yeah I plan on using Steam only for gaming so that is no issue, just wondering how good it is in comparison to Xbox 360 controller to mainly racing games. Anyone got a steam controller yet and played a racing game?
I've used it on racing games. It works perfectly for me. I haven't even picked up my Xbox 360 controller since I got the Steam Controller.

I figured out my issue I had, I basically knew the error but I just wasn't thinking properly it was just a usergroup error permission. After I fixed it from help online the Steam Controller and 360 worked marvellous ;).
Now I never need to go on Windows for controller fun. Thanks for all the replies in response.
