I've always inverted my mouse, but a lot of my friends dont do it. I guess it all started with the Xwing games and flight simulators. And when I converted to FPS I also inverted my mouse. How many people here invert their mouse and why do they do it?

i don't play flight sims with a mouse, so i don't invert. plus, quake was by default not inverted, and thats how i learned to play.

Oh man if I don't invert the mouse it feels so awkward I can't even play. Gotta have the invert;)

Must.....have....Inverted.....Mouse.....

I can't play any other way, I played Q1 that way, even DukeNukem...Just an old habit, not sure I could break it.

All the people stating that flight sims are the reason they started with INVERTED mouse, what about normal day to day surfing. Do you somehow invert that too?

up is up and down is down on the desktop. I could never go to invert.

have to invert, much, much, much more natural. Can't play if it isn't.

Think about it. When you look down you push your head FORWARD, to look up you pull you head BACK.

Well, I have never used invert on FPS games for the PC.

However, when I recently purchased my xbox, games like Splinter Cell and Halo, I always want to press down to look up and up to look down

So FPS on PC = no invert

Xbox = yes invert

woohoo! post #500 :)
