I was looking at the TIE Fighter GOG had up, most of the reviews were complaining it wasn't the CD-ROM Collector's Edition. But now GOG says that is coming, so now I wonder if I can still play it with a mouse and keyboard (with invincibility on, of course).

Yeah when they first released it, it was the original release. But just this weekend they added the CD-ROM edition and upgraded everyone who had already bought it for free.

I've heard you can now play with controller support as well if you don't own a joystick.

I'm just waiting on some cash in the card to get the xwing/tie fighter games now that they have the collector's cd edition, that is THE best version for both games.

I played the original CD collectors edition of Tie fighter 16 years ago and finished it with the mouse and keyboard (had no joystick), it may sound a pain in the ass and it was actually, but once you get on track with the learning curve is not that hard. PS: Remove your mouse pad and get some space for the mouse since you'll be doing a loooooooot of huge mouse movements.
