Re: The TMSR Post 1. The news summaries show the level of excitment that surrounds Half-Life. 2. The post is kinda misleading. They are referring to the fact that "Half-Life: Day One" is bundled with the FragMaster controller (not the other way round). 3. Keyboard and Mouse are the only way to go. These wacko controllers never work out in the long run (my opinion). I used a SpaceOrb controller for about 6 months and thought it was great! ...until I damaged my thumb severely from overused, then I went through the learning curve and discovered how much better KB+M really is. FWIW, in a week or so, I'll put up an article on SlicerWorld (http://209.20.237.60/SlicerWorld) on the config that I use. 4. The bizarrest controller I've seen so far is the TitanSphere, a big beachball-like thing with handles on either side (http://www.sgrl.com). It generated lots of interest at E3. I thought the thing was totally unusable because you can't hold it still and turn at the same time. BTW, I can't get to their website anymore, they may have gone under. Chip
