Do you set the controls to inverted for looking up and down or do u play normal?

Personally i always use Inverted as i cant get used to the normal way for some reason.

Yeah I know ever since I got into games with analog sticks (Goldeneye, Super Mario 64) I have been using inverted controls. I just dont know what it is but I prefer it that way.

A group of about 10 of us all use inverted controls. We have one player who uses the Bond Style controls. I can't use them and anyone else that accidently picks his character simply sets it down and walks away.

I use the regular controls. When I push up, I look up...when I press down, I look down...go figure?!? :D

Inverted. The first time I picked up Bond, that's how the controls were set.

Played regular for a little while on Halo, but decided to go back.

Inverted , I suppose its 'cause I'm so used to flight sims, I played Goldeneye with 2 controllers the left controller to look and the right to move around.

normal, who ever thought of the idea of inverted for shooters. when we move our head up, we don't look down and when we move our head down, we do not look up. WHY?? well, remember in the old days of DOOM and Wolfstein, there was no "up" and "down" view. the elevation aiming was automatic. i actually used inverted as my first way, but i kept crapping up so i changed it.

Actually I use the normal controls, but on Halo, I set the configuration for "Boxer" mode (melee with the left trigger, grenades take the old melee button). I use the melee attack as part of my main arsenal because I have preference for close quarter combat as opposed to sniping.

Inverted is like the joystick is a pair of goggles, and you are looking thru them to the other side...and you bend down to look up, its too weird

I use regular. My friend who played nintendo games alot back in the day says that some games only had the invert setting and he got used to it that way...

Rebel Assault got me used to inverted flight controls. Stuck with inverted ever since.

Because I was inverted. *coughs* bullsh1t *coughs <-movie reference

Goldeneye, and just feels right to me is why I play inverted.

I just played Goldeneye last night/this morning...I played it once or twice before, not my favorite game of all time...but my friend got me hooked on one hit kills with no radar...he knew every map and I was running around like a chicket with it's head cut off...i got 6-11 kills every time tho...not bad considering I dont like the game much...
