PvP FPS recommendations?

[forgotten_aria]

After my wrists are completely healed, I've decided that I need to look for good FPS PvP*. Back in the day I used to play a lot of CTF Quake with runes on a private server and loved it and I'm looking for that kind of thing again. I can look up game reviews for FPSes, but can't select based on their PvP quality. I also need a practice arena, since it's been a really long time, so I can't do one of those PvP only ones (like Team Fortress.) Also idealy, I'd like one that plays well with mostly keyboard or joystick controls, since using a mouse makes me unhappy. I don't own a xbox 360 yet either.

I think that list might have just made it impossible, but my friends know much, including which of the older games still have followings. So, any suggestions?

* if you don't know what FPS PvP is, then you likely can't help me. However, it means First Person Shooter Player Vs Player which is a genre of video games. CTF means capture the flag.

Not many recommendations here yet, but I can recommend what you want to avoid.
