You sound like a PC Gamer, the goldeneye controls were fantastic IMO. 
Most of your problems were probably related to co-ordination of your 
hands.  If you have not used a gamepad much you _will_ obviously find it 
different to what you are used to, the "old keyboard mouse combo".

First time I used a keyboard + mouse it felt wierd, but sure enough 
after 30mins or so I was loving it.  Try playing an FPS with the mouse 
in your left hand and I am sure it will take you a while to adjust to it 
again.

Cheers

JG
