Default On the PS3 I play Inverted/Regular

Just wondering what you guys choose. I'm the only person in my entire group of friends that plays inverted. I think it's because of too much Wing Commander and other flight sims back in the day that makes me think that inverted is the only way.

Regular for me. I think that people who play inverted played a lot of flying games. For me, playing inverted, is like using the restroom upside down.

It's the way you think about it. Pulling back on a stick is like leaning back and that makes you look up. Pushing forward leans you forward and you look down.

I used to play inverted, but now play regular. It works so much nicer that way.

Depends on the game, I've noticed some games switch regular to what inverted is, and inverted to what regular is. If I hit up on the stick it should go up, if I hit down on the stick it should go down.

At first I played regular, and I sucked really bad. I kept thinking up was down and down was up. I was about to give up on FPSs and then my brother showed me a nifty little trick called inverting, and I have been addicted to the genre ever since.
(By the way, I have never played any flight simulators, so I have no idea why my natural inclination when it comes to FPSs is inverted, it just is.)

Inverted. No question about it. It feels better that way.

That's what she said.
