Mice

[Deftscythe]

I need a new mouse, but I've not bought one before(always just used spares we had laying around.) Can anyone point me to a site with good reviews on mice or recommend a good model? Looking for optical or laser, preferably wireless and if wireless having long battery life.

walmart? (never thought a mouse was good or bad as long as it was lazer)

do you play fps at all? if you do, get a wired mouse.

if not? I'd start at newegg and go from there.

Personally I like Logitech's mice the best. They have a wide varriety, so you just need to find one you like in the price range.

I agree. I use this one from logitech and it is very comfortable. The side buttons are a wonderful addition over standard two button mice, and the device itself fits my hand like a glove.

The website lists it as $50, but I do not think I spent that much on mine (it was a long time ago).

Logitech seems to be the standard as far as gaming mice go. I have a MX510, and the only thing that bugs me about it is that the bottom feet are wearing off pretty fast. So much for durability.

Microsoft make awesome mice. Mouses? Mice?

Anyway, it's dirt cheap and will be really reliable.

same mouse, but with one side button. Best mouse I've ever used and its so sexy with my g15. I'll never use a wireless setup again, they can even be annoying in mmo's.

absolutely LOVE the weight cartridge for FPS's, makes me want to get competitive again ;3 mmm and the instant sensitivity changing

Same mouse I have, just wish when I bought it I had known they changed the color scheme. Everywhere still had the original G5 picture up when I bought it and then this ugly blue thing arrives in the mail... bah! Still a good mouse for my purposes though. First mouse I've ever used with a tilting scroll wheel, love that feature.

Don't know how relevant it would be to you since it's about wired mice for fps purposes but here's an article on mouse sensitivity on some of the more popular mice. Laser mice still outclass optical at the moment despite what reviews and the like may lead you to believe is, I suppose, the important point of it anyways. As for wireless, I've heard nothing but good about logitech's two upper level wireless mice(the G7 and the VX? something or other mouse), particularly the ease with which you can pop the second battery into the mouse when the first dies but they come with the highest price tags I've ever seen on a mouse . Not that the G5 is much cheaper ._.

The blue one is quite ugly.. but I can't live without the two thumb buttons. I had to go to 3 different Best Buys to find it. But it was on sale for like $45 or something so that wasn't too bad, considering how much I've spent on mice/keyboards before.. like the incredibly shitastic Logitech MX5000 set.
