5 out of 5 stars Simplicity is Perfection   September 19, 2008

This mouse moves accurately, runs without a driver, and is more comfortable than the G5, G9 and Death Adder (yes I do own all of them). Simply the perfect mouse. The only thing they could do better is the scroll wheel having the lean left and right buttons like the G5/G9. If you are looking for a cheaper gaming mouse look no further. I wish I'd found this before buying the others! No problems with acceleration (once you have properly tweaked windows)

The program enclosed on the cd is used to set the two dpi settings, once you have done that you no longer need it. I have mine set to 400/1600.

This is a must have if you want a precise mouse for fps bliss!

NOTE: (added later) On some surfaces the lift off distance may be too high. Paired with the SteelSeries I-2 this isn't a problem.



5 out of 5 stars Finally a mouse with a perfectly placed thumb button   December 12, 2008

This is a great mouse. Originally, I went to a local store and tested the gaming mice they had. I was interested in the MS Sidewinder. But the sidewinder thumb buttons weren't under my thumb with a normal grip. So I took a chance and ordered this... It's perfect. The first thumb button is directly under my thumb, but because of the mouse design and how it allows your thumb to rest on the extension below the button there is no worry about pressing it accidently. Most of the other mice that tested also had thumb buttons that weren't easily usable with my normal grip. This has been the best mouse I've ever used. Highly recommended.

I have been using mices like razer copperhead , IE 3.0 , Deathadder whcih are one of the best mices for FPS games or especially Counter Strike . It has no auto correction so It helps you when you reduce the recoil and increases spray accuracy. Has better feeling than Deathadder . Design is tight nothing to comlain about.If you are CS or CSS player this is the mouse that is better than any other now! Just to let you guys know that


4 out of 5 stars Best gaming mouse ever used   April 8, 2008

If I were to only rate this product's preformance and comfort, it would definitely be a 5-star. The only reason I gave it 4-stars is beacause of the limited driver and not many customiazable functions.


2 out of 5 stars Definitely not a professional gaming mouse   December 2, 2009

After owning one for about 5 months the cable from the front of the mouse began to short so i would lose connection for s few seconds and hear the "Sol-Do" usb unplugging sound. Then after a few seconds you would hear the "Do-Sol" connecting sound and it would work again. I really think this has to do with my play style though, really low sense and i flick a lot. (quake live rails) Almost all my mice have struggled from this problem after 3-6 months though so I will not dock this mouse for it. But ok, onto the real review.....

Although i had a hard time proving it (using test)this mouse just felt really inaccurate. No matter what settings i used i could not give it a natural 1:1 feel. It felt like it added small amounts of acceleration either positive or negative when you use flick shots. As that was not enough i noticed my accuracies fall quite a bit.
Since then i have switched to the death adder my rail accuracies have improved again. From about 50% to about 65% some games hitting 80%-85% =p So I can say that I strongly feel that it was due to the mouse's inconsistencies. I have also heard many other fellow quake live players (a few pros too) complain about this mouse.

For the price they are asking I do not think it is worth it at all.
