Hi All,

I'm in the market for a new gamepad as my old Bekin Nostromo is coming to the end of it's life. :(
I've looked at this G13 on youtube but would like some feed back from anyone who has used one please.
(Pros & cons)

If not G13 what game pad would be best.
 
The razer tartarus is the modernised version of the Nostromo, you might want to consider that. I had an original N52, then a g13, but now used a TKL mechanical keyboard rather than a game pad as it still allows me to have my hands in a more comfortable position than a full size keyboard, but offers more keys.

IMO, the g13 isn't bad (It's got more keys than the n52), but I found the game profiles irritating if they magically got applied when I didn't want them, and in general it would forget or switch profiles at in-opportune moments (Although that might have been fixed now with firmware/driver updates). The N52 was IIRC slightly more comfortable than the G13 (The g13 has a flatter palm rest), but I found the mouse joystick on the original n52 fairly useless.

The one thing I used to love about the n52 was the thumb button.

Thnx for the reply, same thought as you on the mouse wheel on the n52, as I never used it. I was also looking at the Razer Tartarus Chroma expert RGB Gaming Pad, as it has no mouse wheel has anyone got or used one of them? before I make a decision on what to order.
