All but red is subjective, as I prefer the opposite in all instances. I find a controller clumsy. (I'll give you a controller in bed works better than KB/M but it's not un-doable.)

I don't want to insult anyone or start a flaming console vs PC war, but, on a hardware level, the mouses sensor is simply much more precise than anolog. Whether someone is proficient with it is another issue.

There are games I prefer using a controller with, but not a TES (RPG/FPS genre) game. I'm waaaaay more accurate with a mouse. Not to brag, but I'm a freaking awesome quick scope head hunting sniper in TF2. I usually have 85+ percent head shot/kill ratio when I'm warmed up.....quick scoping. Not sitting there zoomed in waiting for some fool to just casually walk past my dot. Give me a controller, I couldn't hit an elephant at 6 paces.

See, this is very true. That's why I'm just asking for the option to use a fully configured Xbox 360 setup. Many people prefer controllers, others prefer keyboard/mouse.

And what I mean with the mouse being innacurate is that you have to actually MOVE the mouse, to move the cursor. Sometimes when trying to turn around/look in another direction, you have to move the mouse, and then lift it back to it's orignal spot and move it again.
But with an anolog stick, you just keep it pressed in a direction until it gets to where you want it. Also, I'm MUCH more accurate with an anolog stick. A mouse does indeed have the potential to be much more precise, if only in the right hands. My hands are NOT the right hands

I'm all for options, and wish them to. Just don't kill my KB/M is all I ask. (Even if the mouse isn't used there is no reason to kill it.)

Gaming mice! I can do a full 360 in games within in a quarter of an inch if I set my DPI to 5700. If you play with a mix of DPI and mouse speed you can dial it in just right and it's very smooth an accurate.

To each his own as we seem to have agreed on.

I can't play tes on pc, I've tried and failed. It's crippling.

Try harder. Must....have.....MODS!

That's why I have a trackball. Whee!

Simple.

Aiming with a mouse is clumsy. Aiming with an anolog stick is simple and precise.
Movement using ASDW and the mouse is clumsy. Movement with two anolog sticks is again, simple and precise.
Attacking and defending by clicking the mouse is clumsy. Attacking and defending using two triggers is very simple, and precise.
Using space to activate things is annoying. Simply pressing A is much much better.
Having to press a certain button for sprint/always spring, and also sneak is annoying. Simply applying varying amounts of pressure to the anolog stick to alter your speed is simple and makes sense, and clicking in the anolog stick to sneak is also simple.
Navigating all the menus with the mouse and having to click on everything to activate it is VERY annoying. Simply moving the anolog stick up/down or left/right is a much easier way to navigate, as well as using the two triggers to change between menus. And pressing X to drop an item, or to "take all" is incredible simple and makes sense.
Finally, sitting up close to your computer/laptop, and having to be near a table/desk/other flat surface to be able to use the mouse is annoying and uncomfortable. With a controller, you can recline and sit comfortably, you don't have to be up close to the computer/laptop, and the ergonomic design of a controller is much more comfortable than using your fingers on a keyboard and your hand on a mouse.

That's why controllers are MUCH preffered. I like simple, precise functionality, and the ability to relax while I partake in a 5 hour gaming binge.

Oblivion's big mistake was the crappy button configuration in general. Not being able to remap things like casting spells to a mouse button was completely [censored], like a lot of things in the game (goty my ass).

Mice are more precise on the fly, especially when you have a Razer Naga but controllers feel more comfortable (at least to me) and allows for me to sit back and relax while I play the game on my 52" tv instead of my 17.3" laptop screen and basically use my computer as I would my 360 except maxed out graphics and no lag. Also the controller allows for smoother control of running/walking and is just as efficient if not more and binding keys and making them easier to access. I love playing with a keyboard and mouse but I like the 360 controller better for things like TES and other non-FPS games. If I can get the 360 controller with the PCs graphics, I'm in heaven and that's why I'm going to do. Some people might like the keyboard and mouse better for things like AC and TES but I like the 360 controller better for games like that and you shouldn't judge someone because they would rather use a controller that feels more like an extension of oneself and allows them to sit back and relax.

Who the hell is judging anyone? All we're talking about are controllers. And honestly the only valid improvement is the fact that you can sit back and relax more, which granted, may be important to some people (quite a few it seems).

You could remap spells to your mouse buttons just fine.

The game would not let me remap actions to mouse buttons and some of the keys.... really irritated me.

It allows you to map keyboard keys to your controller.

Yes controller schemes are a must if any of the controls exhibit different behavior when being either pressed or held down because usually these are split up on the keyboard making it impossible to emulate the entire scheme on a pc gamepad.
