New Mouse - Page 2

Luthais · 06-21-2006, 11:18 AM

really It depends on what you play and how serious you are about gaming and which one is more comfortable.

I for example play games, want good performance, but dont really care too much about how well Im doing unless its an MMO that I like. I play CS:S to kill time, and the laser mouse is really nice. I do have a wireless, and as any FPS gamer knows wired is just plain 100% reliable and wireless isnt. I havent noticed any problems gaming wise with my MX1000, but then again I dont play FPS's hardcore

I love the wireless for flexability. If i want to chill on my couch and play I can, I dont have to be stuck to my desk.

I guess I'm gonna have to go with wired since I do play fps harcore/competitively.

I had a mx310, but one day it just crashed ( my comp couldnt find it anymore) So I bought a new mouse, mx 518, I just love this mouse. 10 times better than mx310

Fits perfect in my hand and its gliding smoothly

I myself will be in the market for a new mouse soon, as I tend to go through them quite fast...only problem is I like the bigger mouses and only small ones and wireless seem to be made anymore. My selection is thinning out.

I currently have the 518 and went through about 3 of them already....don't ask.... I guess I abuse my mice..lol Thanks WB I'll take a look at it.

Two thumbs up for the MX1000 (I have two...one for each computer I run). There is another Logitec mouse that has weights you can add to them that I was looking at. The newer model has more weights than last years and there's one that has two batteries that you can switch out. I like how the MX1000 has a battery indicator light (like I ever look at that) and it'll still work when its in the red for a few hours. Recharges fairly quickly too.

oh BOO it's only wireless? Well maybe Ill try wireless but I steared away from it cause of so many people having issues with their mouse during raids... most of the time it was one of the pivital players, the MT or Main Healers.... it always held up the 3 hour raids an extra hour or so...pita.

I need to ask the mouse size question too, I have very big hands, I'm 6'5" and my hands are huge, so I don't like small mice/controllers, that's why even with the original xbox controller I never had issues. I constantly have 1 or 2 fingers not on the mouse and it bothers me so, if you guys could find a big wired laser mouse that would rock.

This is the mouse I'm using.

I've had my hand on the majority of mice, and this one seems the best out of the others so far. I was picky about the action of the clickers and wanted the forward and back web buttons.

The laser is really precise. There's a noticable improvent over my old optical mouse.

I was a bit skeptical of the wireless at first, but so far it works great without any problems, and the batteries last seemingly forever.
