Picking the right mouse for gaming - suggestions?
nite_monkey:
I know I am going to get a bunch of people disagreeing with me here, but In my opinion, a mouse is a mouse. You don't need an over priced mouse with so many buttons and configs that you need a third hand just push all of them. I use a simple cheap wireless keyboard/mouse combo for games, and it works perfectly.

Am I the only one who finds a trackball to be a very good gaming "mouse"? I have a trackball explorer by microsoft, on my second one, and I have not been able to find a good replacement for it. Nothing comes easier than this trackball. I am looking into the kensington expert mouse which our very own KenR has recommended. Thoughts?

Logitech MX1000 wireless laser moose here.
Absolutely no complaints, ever, in the past three years.

Alright, NewEgg had a rebate on the G9 (normally $100, it was on sale for $80, and the rebate took it to $60!) so I went and got that. I absolutely love it. The cord is the only negative to the thing (IMO, I'm a wireless guy). The options for it just blow away every other mouse I have used. Definitely worth consideration if you are a heavy mouse user of gamer looking for a new mouse!

I bought the Logitech Mx310 a year or two ago,
it's cheap, bisexual ehh, you can use it left or right hands, it does have back/forward buttons, & a button on top - it's easy to ignore them - I've never used the one on top, dont even know what it does (just tested, nothing obvious happening at the moment :D)
