hey guys i have halo2 for xbox and i play on xbox live alot. i got halo pc cause i want to make my own maps and play on them. i was wondering how the controls work? i have the game but i cant play it because my graphix card dosnt support it (ima have to get a new one i guess) i looked in the book and seeing how fast i fight on xbox live i can imagine pressing keyboard buttons that fast?

do most of you have controllers or do you guys just get used to it>?

No, in fact gamepads/joysticks are an immediate disadvantage.

A mouse is easily more superior to a joystick as far as control. I find that the keyboard is pretty freakin' fast for movement and other stuff. Realize, though, that if you've played with a controller all of your life, a keyboard and mouse will take getting used to.

In general, though, because Halo PC has no auto-aim unlike it's console cousin, it will be much harder to use a controller. Most pc games have no auto-aim, unlike consoles, because the mouse/keyboard is more accurate...
