keyboard + trackball.
of course some game (yes Fallout 3 i'm looking at you) are designed for controller and designer doesn't spent time to make a proper keyboard layout (and sometime doesn't even allow player( to fully customise the key setting) that's the only case where i play (or not ) with a gamepad.
i use a controller when i play emulated game of course, or on my console.
change of mood, december is usually a busy month for all of us, so december will be a month without ORC. Spend some time with your familly and friends and see ya next year.
I was playing a bit with the dragon age toolkit. Need to get use to it, it is not as friendly as the GECK or the TESCS.
Also you need to play with some files on the go with the steam version.
