Usually you find this in FPSes, but sometimes you can do this in other games.

Preferably, I invert the y-axis since it just makes more sense to me for some reason.

I don't even believe in conflict diamonds. That's just a movie. Think about it. Ain't nobody thought about nothing about no conflict diamonds until the movie came out.

It depends on the game.

FPSs, no, I don't. But for flight games, like Star Fox, or Battlefront 2, I invert the y-axis.

For flying games, definitely. I can't play them any other way.

But then again, there usually isn't a choice.

I invert my x axis in a lot of games, but oddly not in FPS. In FPS, I leave it in the common style it starts in.

Flying game, Y-axis. Anything else when I don't need to be precise, no.

Oh yeah, now that you mention it, I tend to invert y-axis on flying games as well.

I invert Y-axis on all console FPSes, TPSes, flight games, etc. It just has felt natural to use an inverted y-axis since I played Turok and Goldeneye back on N64(and still do, too).

I've seen the option in games like DKRDS and Star Fox 64 (I think).

Never changed it, though, as far as I remember.
