Since I've replied to countless controller vs keyboard threads, for me the argument always comes down to mouse vs analog stick precision, I'll just leave this here http://trackballcontroller.com/

I have one, it was like learning how to play again, I can't recommend it enough.
This!

Thumb Trackball is almost as precise and versatile as a mouse. Add that the comfort of controller and it's perfect.

I have some old videos playing with thumb trackball:

I use this mouse for work everyday, and sporadically play single player FPSes with it (hardest available difficulty, from the couch). I still use a regular mouse for serious matches, but I'm sure if I had 12 years of experience playing with it instead of mouse I could play at just the same level as with mouse.

I'll record new ones.

Btw, there's kickstarter campaign for one controller of the kind:

I have no idea why it's not the norm for consoles, or at least to be an optional official controller.
