best gaming mouse

[MRBIG85]

I am currently building a new system.I have made my choices on every component except one.The mouse. I would like the opinions of yall on what is the best gaming mouse.currently i am useing the microsoft laser optical mouse.i am content with it I was just wondering if there was anything better out there?:)

[LA_MERC_Avatar]

well i use the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer2.0 and it works great...

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

As long as your mouse does these things you can't go wrong:
1) COMPLETE plug and play capability, i.e. you can take it and plug it into a system and go
2) It's an optical mouse. Rollerballs are so 90's...
3) It has a easy to use mouse wheel. I don't use this much in CS, but dang it's useful in everything else in the world.

I use an IBM Optical Wheelmouse, it's saweet. Although Omega couldn't find the left mouse click... hehehe

I use a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer.. think it was the first optical they put out.. its GREAT... has two BIG extra buttons on my thumb side that i use like crazy!

[LA_MERC_Avatar]

tyler you need to get the ver2 then...man it blows the ver1 away...better dpi and smoother game play than the orginal...oh yeah, i love the two side buttons...

[IamTylerDurden]

really... ??? ill check that out.. didnt they make the side buttons small though???

i was just thinking i might not like that, but if the dpi is better i need to check into it... you know where i could get a good deal on one?

thanks man

[LA_MERC_Avatar]

well i got mine at office depot but i would imagine that you could find on somewhere online for cheap...yeah the buttons a little smaller, but you get used to it quickly...

[IamTylerDurden]

cool deal.. ill def check it out!...


thanks man.. and see you tonight... gotta head back to work!

[LA_MERC_Avatar]

later...

[MRBIG85]

Do they still make razor boomslang mice? I thought that i had heard that they did not.if they still do does it come in am optical version?

[LA_MERC_RiverRat]

I use a Logitech Optical iFeel Mouse and its saweet cause I gots mine set up so that the mouse vibrates whnever I get shot or when I am shooting someone - different vibrations for each action....

[eNdOfBeGinNinG]

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

[Big Mama Funk]

[IamTylerDurden]

Avatar... apparently they have all gone to V3 now... but i picked one up .. let you know tonight what i think...

[LA_MERC_RiverRat]

uhhh...onji - that link dont go anywhere man! it's a redirect back to their homepage at http://www.logitech.com/cf/country.cfm

[LA_MERC_Cowboy_From_Hell]

Ima left too. All the dern mice are ergonomically designed for righties. Sux. Kinda strange though. The only two things I do lefty are comp gaming and hockey, everything else is right.

Well that sucked, i must of had it cookied, well i just edited it with a post of the pic, oh well.

[LA_MERC_RiverRat]

LOL...mine is similar but its a 4x optical

[haduj]

mama,
i really like logitech,
and most of them besides
the ergonomic ones arent oriented
for left or right, you can simply change
the handed orientaion in windows,making it
a left handed mouse with no difference,
in other words all my optical mice are
exactly the same left as they are right.

[eNdOfBeGinNinG]

wOOt got my intellimouse from IATD thanks bro ;)

[Crazy White Boy]

Best thing to stick with for the mouse is the standard wireful ball mouse (unless u have a dual optical mouse)

[Crazy White Boy]

as far as im concerned though, if it works, is cheap, and dont talk, use it


Why does that not sound good?

[IamTylerDurden]

no prob man.. glad you like it!

[IamTylerDurden]

lol.. it wasnt free

[[[Corvette]]]

I got a Logitech Optical scroll. I had an Intellimouse Explorer, but the darn thing would quit working if I bumped the cord wrong. So I took it back and got this Logitech. And I'm glad I did, never had any problems with it. Plus I bought the Explorer for $20 at Wal-Mart (reduced) and took it back to Office Max, so I got a $30 Logitech and $20 cash, hehehe.

[El2l2ANT]

The only thing I cant stand about optics is the pick up factor. When I pick up the mouse to reposition it on the mouse pad it drops the pointer down more than half a page. Of course in CS this means I'm looking at the ground all the sudden. I pick up the mouse way to much to change now so does anyone know of an Optic that wont do this? If so please explain way.

M-

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

I have MSoft Intellimouse Explorer (3.0) and I don't have that problem...sorry.

Use a logitech optical mouse on a bumpy table if u hit it right you do a leet spin which ur upper body spins faster than your lower body.

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

Uh....ok.

[MRBIG85]

I have never heard of the "leet spin" what advantage does it give you?

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

Probably the "Dizzy Luck Shot" or something...

[dA nYc pIMp]

u can kill everyone around u with a couple of bullets :d:
