99%+ of players use keyboard and mouse. The feeling is that keyboard simply can't provide accurave enough aiming. Which is true, especially in my FPS of choice - Tribes 2. In Total Annihiation (RTS), of course, your main tool is your mouse and in Freespace 2 you use a joystick and keyboard. Andy Dawn Falcon
