My point was that no matter how well you use your mouse, it doesn't change the fact that I can precisely control my movement speed with a controller, but can't with a keyboard. The mouse may be fantastic, but the keyboard sucks. |
I personally recommend this baby:

It allows you to plug in two PS2 controllers into a single USB port. This is particularly nice if you already have a PS2 controller(or two) and its great for using Analog with Mouse(the more complex games usually benefit from a mouse with 4 buttons + wheel w/click) due to the PS2 controller's double shoulder buttons, analog button, select button, and dpad. The PS2 controller has the most buttons I've seen on a controller, and the buttons all mirror each other, so you can use it left or right hand without issues to mouse with whichever hand you're comfortable on. It takes a bit to tweak teh controls for optimum performance, but Psychonauts and Thief 3(not sure about the first 2) play wonderfully on this setup, though both can also work fairly well with just PS2 controller too. Not sure about FPS, it basically depends on how well they support joysticks and analog controls, but there's really no certainty of whether any particular game will support it, so it's all kind of on a game by game basis.
