To invert or not to invert "Poll"

Inverted under 30 or played games less then 20 yr

Inverted over 30 long time gamer

Normal under 30 or less then 20 yrs gaming

120

Normal over 30 long time gamer

30

I have always played inverted. Maybe its because of my age. As I remember, almost all of the original first person games were inverted because they used flight simulator engines. I also do not think it is backwards. You don't hold your controller vertically, you hold it horizontally. Inverted doesn't mean down is up, it means backwards is up. You tilt your head back to look up, Right? Anyways I'm interested to know the numbers so vote and If you would comment your age as well to see if my suspicion that gamers over about 30 probably invert more often

  • 31 and inverted. Ive played shooters since doom on pc. I dont think goldeneye on 64 had the option for normal? Could be wrong.

  • 23 and I have always had to play inverted. I think it mainly started because of 3rd person action games where the camera movement seem to always be inverted. Whenever I get back into an FPS after a hiatus it does take me a little practice to get used to again though.

    When I started out gaming I know I used inverted but at some point I switched. I don't remember when either...I'm 28 btw. My brother who is 27 plays inverted tho. I guess he missed the switch lol

  • I used to play inverted as a child, it just felt right. Now I'm 21 and I have no idea when I switched to normal. I tried going inverted too recently, but I just could not get back into the groove.

  • I've played inverted ever since ace combat 6, I don't know why and all my friends call retarded but it just makes more sense to me; at least I know if someone has been playing on my account since it's always changed lol

    • 35. Playing games since Atari 2600. Inverted. Strangely, my best friend of the same age (life long and very similar gaming history) is normal.

    • A lot of flight games feel better inverted but it's weird in FPS games in my opinion. 14 years of gaming (20 years old) :D
