Your ultimate gaming mouse

Razer Mamba

Can't think of anything better, have used a Deathadder, MX518 and a G5, all good mice don't get me wrong, the mamba is just better.
 
MX518 for wired, Revolution wireless...and as far as I'm concerned there's no difference between wired and wireless so Revo it is!

Another happy user here of Microsoft's IntelliMouse Optical.

Not too tall, and side-buttons big enough not to miss. Perfect - and cheap!
 
Hate mice with gimmicks and have always preferred simple designs. Maybe as am left handed and prefer the 'claw' style grip.

Recently moved from a Microsoft Laser Mouse 6000 (over 2500 hours of gaming and never failed) to a SteelSeries XAI, which I am loving atm.
 
There hasn't been any really great strides in gaming mice for ages imo, still would like one that can execute loads of keybinds from a few buttons, something along the lines of the naga but better designed.
 
MX518, but I am tempted to try the MX Revolution only I hate forgetting to charge wireless mice and them running out for cheese mid game.

I think if you use an MX Revolution then you have to keep the MX518 in your shoe ;)
 
I have used so many mice over the years and gone through a great deal of trying to find the most reliable and comfortable one for me.

Here is my summary:

Intellimouse ball mouse - very good in its day in both comfort and accuracy.
Intellimouse 2.0 Explorer Opitcal - when it first came out it felt like sheer perfection.
Razer Boomslang - Extremely precise and fast but not very comfortable.
Intellimouse 1.1 Explorer Optical - much like the 2.0 but not as comfortable for me.
Intellimouse 3.0 Explorer Optical - Again, felt like sheer perfection and had big improvements over the 2.0
Logitech MX500 - Felt like a big leap in accuracy over the 3.0 Explorer but I had issues with the left mouse button sticking.
Razer Diamondback - Extremely fast and accurate but not very comfortable.
Logitech MX518 - Like the MX500 but with better DPI but again had problems with left button sticking and becoming faulty.
Razer Copperhead - Comfortable, precise and very reliable.
Intellmouse 3.0 Explorer Optical NEW version - Horrible casing material (rough instead of the old smooth plastic), loose side buttons which easily broke and more problems with the mouse scroll.

I have gone back to a new Copperhead because for me it has been the most reliable all round mouse. I plan on trying something else again though when it dies.
 
G500 is the best mouse i've ever used 5400DPI is just plain ridiculous and the weight system really helps keep things smooth with my big club hands
 
Razer Diamondback made out of the same material as the Deathadder. and the tech of the razer deathadder.
 
I still have a working Razor Diamonback, I really liked the shape and feel of the mouse, but driver support was a big let down for me so I went back to Logitech.

The new Saitek Cyborg RAT mice are looking interesting. I'm just wonder how pratical they might be. And come in a verity of different prices to suit every pocket.

Also Logitech are releasing there wireless G700 gaming mouse soon. Which reminds me of the old mouseman shape type mice they once sold. Which I fould really comfortable.
 
Is there a mouse that makes a mould of your hand so its a perfect fit?


There would be if you covered your mouse in plastercene, put your hand on till you were as snug as could be then make a latex mould from the impression and fill with some type of gel that sets, attach to mouse and there you go the ultimate personal customised mouse :D
 
First optical mouse bought for gaming was the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer, after the side buttons stopped working I moved to the Logitech MX510. When the Setpoint software wasn't supported in Vista I moved onto the Logitech MX518, which I am still using now.

I have tried the Razor Diamondback, but the shape isn't comfortable for me.
