I play inverted. Notice the period there, as this is an unchanging statement. Pyramids could be constructed upon the rock hard base upon which this statement is founded.
What I mean is that in the console based first person shooter gaming genre, I play interveted. Doing it on a CPU just seems silly. Which is the problem. This is atopic on which there is no sympathy for the other side. Thankfully most games now come with a simple options menu which can quickly be accessed in-game to perform a switch in under 5 seconds. Modern Warfare 2 is a good example of this, it is quickly visible under the options.
This is necessary because gamers do have friends IRL (in real life), despite what XBox Live might insinuate. And I spent a fair amount of the holiday season "controller swapping." The understood circular rotation which must be obeyed in single player gaming. During this the basic elements of gaming were uncovered.
There are 3 fundamental rules of Controller Jockeying:
1. You play Vert or Invert, there are no ambi-players
2. Once you have learned your style, it cannot be changed.
3. If a change is attempted dire consequences will follow.
The best origin that has been given for the despairityin play styles is initial exposure to console gaming. Did you play flight simulators? I.E. Pilot Wings on the SNES. If so you are likely to be inverted. Likewise those who played Goldeneye of the N64 seem to be more likely to play inverted.
The truth though may forevere be shrouded in mystery.
