Yes, I have been using a wireless keyboard/mouse combination for sometime, and have not had any problems when playing games.

In my exp, wireless would often cause me some grief in games. Keys would stop responding, Mouse would lock up.

Switched back to wired and all was fine

What sort of level are you gaming at? For most players wireless is more than sufficient in terms of response speed but at the highest levels (and some people claim they notice latency anyway although I can't say I have) wired is still probably the way to go, partly because it will be marginally faster but also the fact that you will never run out of battery life.

agreed, i wouldn't dream of turning up to LAN with a wired combination, but for general home leisure gaming it's perfectly fine!
