For the past while I have been using an old Dualshock 3 controller with my PC using a program called SCP DS3. Here is a video guide of how to set it up:

I also had to follow this guide to get my bluetooth drivers working properly for it:

Basically you just connect the Dualshock 3 controller to your PC via USB, install the Xbox 360 controller drivers, then follow the guide. When you are done it should work perfectly via bluetooth!
What I just discovered today is that this works with multiple controllers. It appears that this will work with up to 4 controllers. I bought a new Dualshock 3 controller today for $30 at a clearance outlet. All I did was pair up my old one first, then I connected the new one to the computer via USB. I opened up the SCP monitor and sure enough, it paired up as controller #2! I let it charge up a bit and then it paired up via bluetooth as well.
I tried it in a couple of games and everything worked perfectly with no configuration necessary at all. I tried Split Second and Lego Star Wars 3.
Both of the controllers are emulating Xbox 360 controllers so they should work in any game you want and your system will think you have Xbox 360 controllers.
I hope that can help someone out! It works really great once you have it set up. My bluetooth adapter is an Asus BT-400 but apparently you can use any bluetooth adapter that you want. Good luck!
