Controllers instead of keyboard and mouse??

I have just downloaded Everquest2, AA and really would like to use a controller instead of keyboard and mouse. Is this possible??

I know alot of ppl will say it is better/easier to use keyboard/mouse.....for me (as of right now ) it is not.

I have heard that games will have to have 'incorporated' the option of using a joystick/controller, but have also heard that there are 'programs/software' that will let you use one for whatever game u want....

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Dave

There's USB controllers, basically look like a PS2 controller with a USB connection and no vibrating. Mate of mine has one, But it only seemed to work on Grand Theft Auto games. Not sure of any programs that could make them compatible for more games though.

Saitek.
These controllers can be mapped to keyboard keys through
software if the game doesn't support controllers.

Pretty sure Xbox360 controllors work with windows pretty well.
