Gaming Mouse

prescott28 · 26 Feb 2009 at 14:40

I suppose I have'nt really bothered about getting decent mouse for gaming but I think it is about time. I am looking and the Logitech G5 but noticed the Microsoft HABU mouse and wondered if anyone here had used one and how it was. It looks rather low and I have big hand so it may not be for me but any comments would be gratefully received.

Got to consider the Deathadder at this price, best mouse I've ever used.

If you have a big hand, then you are sure to be a palm holder, so the Microsoft HABU or Razer Deathadder would be the suitable choices.

Deathadder.

Nothing else comparable for the price imo.

Deathadder. By far the best mouse I have used too.

Helios1234 · 26 Feb 2009 at 16:31

Deathadder or Diamondback 3g

Thanks for the advice, guys. I am surprised that no one is keen on the Logitech G5 but the Razer certainly seems to be the popular one here

I was intigued by the look of the HABU so would love to hear from anyone who uses one.

Expensive, but for me the best mouse ever, also has a very wide design which fits my relatively large hands really well: the SteelSeries Ikari Laser

DeathAdder is a great mouse.

Im using a G5 and i cant fault it at all. I opted for it after trying various mice in a shop, and found it to be a nice size and comfortable to use.

I have got a g5 and deathadder.
Both are nice but probably prefer the g5 for comfort as i have big hands and prefer the thumb position on it.

Recently upgraded from the MX518 to the DeathAdder (great price at the moment) and have to say I prefer the DeathAdder (only got it yesterday so still need to get used to it)

Deathadder great for big hands

willy · 27 Feb 2009 at 00:41

What about small hands?

Mini-laptop mouse for you

.

Razer Diamondback or Copperhead would probably be suitable, although that is if you are a claw death gripper.

sorn21 · 27 Feb 2009 at 01:04

Logitech G9

or the G5

I have big hands but I use a claw grip.

jak731 · 27 Feb 2009 at 01:13

go out to a shop that have them on display and try them.

i prefer the G5
