Hi Hayden,
Well, part could be your sound setup. Understand that standard stereo
headphones and/or speakers will not accurately render a 3d virtual
audio environment. To really do this correctly you need a 5.1 stereo
sound card, 5.1 speakers with 5 or more speakers, or some of the pro
gamer

I spent some cash on some hd205s and hd201 senheiser headsets
but and with my cheapy realtech the games sound quite good.
I don't have room for the speakers or the cash for those the card and
really good phones.
As it was I was lucky I got those headphones.

Hi Damien,
Right. Generally they aren't the kind of thing you can just go in and
buy from any electronics store etc. I think I got my set from
Amazon.com, but other online retailers should cary them as well. The
last time I looked at them they started at around $99 USD and went up
from there.

Hi Philip,
Yeah, I pretty much figured as much. A lot of people, blind from
birth, are of the opinion that joysticks and mice are just extra
controllers. The reason is they have never been exposed to the kinds
of games that can benifit from alternative controllers and believe
that the keyboard is
well I got a joystick.
I tried a force feadback stick for a bit but it never worked out.
Its to big for my desk as it is.
I have a mouse but I still prefur the keyboard.
I may eventually get a propper gamepad or gaming mouse.
THe one with 10 or more buttons something compact.

Hi Philip,
That's understandable. Right now with Mysteries of the ancients I am
recommending at least a 10 button joystick, but it really is better to
have a 12 button joystick or gamepad. Most can be purchased for under
$50 in the USA which isn't really that expensive. Unfortunately, as
you say

HI Damien,
I see. Well, I guess I understand your logic to a point, but it
definitely isn't very portable that way. I guess I was assuming you
were like most laptop users that install all of your apps to the hhard
drive, and store books, movies, setup files, whatever on the external.
That's what

well, I have the data on my external and run that.
I also have a backup.
I have had a drive fall over.
I almost lost everything I owned.
And that would really suck.
I managed to get it back partly by fluke from another broken drive
and partly from some other backups.

Hi, Ok the path finding can be reserved for pro, but I really think that the
mouse support should always be available. Not everyone will want to make a
paid game with mouse support, so paying $100 just for that is a little.
hmmm.

Hi Philip,
Well, I guess this all depends upon your view of what is
important/essential. You are considering joysticks and mice advanced
input features. I don't see it that way. It is my firm believe that
all input devices weather it is a keyboard, joystick, and mouse is
equally important.
