if you looked at some of the times posted by kb players playing 2010 you wouldn't be so confident in your conclusion. there will always be people, like me, who are just going to play this game with kb, and play it decently and have lots of fun. if every equipment thats required for different types of games are bought then the money spent would be much much more than the amount of money spent on a gamepad. true a gamepad does not cost much, but money always adds up from various things, never just one.
