... so here's a troll.
People who don't invert the y-axis in FPS games are sick and wrong.

I always invert the y-axis. The standard/default way is bass-ackwards to me.
There was a sniper game on the Dreamcast years ago that I rented that
wouldn't let you invert the way you aimed the scope. I stopped playing it
five minutes into the game.

FPS is not a flight sim.
"Y axis" is not inverted on a flight sim or airplane, either. When you
"pull back" on a stick, you are controlling the elevators, not the whole
airplane. Pulling back on the stick causes the elevators to go up, and
pushing it "up" causes them to go "down".

Dear me... you ar so 90'ish !!!
Get a touchscreen overlay for your monitor you twat, and the new
smack-o-rama software.... that way you can whack the badguys to a bleeding
pulp with your old flight-stick.... or a big kitchen spoon for that
matter..... or even your dick if you are well equipped...... in your case
you could always just poke them in the eye !!!
Beats the hell out of just dropping them with the shotgun !!!

Funny you should mention that... I bought Logitech's Wingman Warrior
during the initial explosion of FPS because i wanted every possible
advantage in Doom's deathmatch. I ended up returning back to the
keyboard after giving the joystick and it's special Z-axis spinning
knob (meant to help with turning while the Y-axis was forward/back and
the X-axis was strafe-left/right -this was before the popularization
of the keyboard and mouse in FPS games). HOWEVER, i found the
joystick to be an absolute *dream* for MechWarrior 2. The spinning
knob could twist your mech's turret around like a dream while the
joystick itself controlled movement; otherwise, it was all hype.
You wouldn't be curious in a novelty joystick.. would you?

I played the original Jedi Knight with a joystick for movement (left hand)
and my mouse to look (right hand). Kinda awkward, but so is using a keyboard
if you think about it.
