Any recommendations for a sub Ł15 mouse to replace my tat that is the mighty mouse? Not concerned about tons of buttons, now that my FPSing is on the Xbox. Just enough to browse and play a few RTS games.

i remember when i was ready to spend Ł50 on one of the last razer boomslang's when they went bust.

i've got a mx revolution and its fucking brilliant and its not a silly gamer mouse with exorbitant features.

i use every single button on it daily

Err looks pricey. Anything a lot cheaper?

These are pretty bulletproof in my experience. Used them on Mac and PC.

Is the wheelie okay. Got stunk the last two times with MS mice and their wheels.

Get the Razor, there's a bunch of them on Play for under Ł30 and they have orange neon up the wazzoo.

You wouldn't want to be a chainsaw n00b, right?

Bought so many Ł30 mice and not found them to be special, so looking for a cheap option. I don't really game on the Mac.

I have one of these. Best mouse I've ever owned.

Thirded!!!

I`ve had different razor mice for a few years now and the diamondback is the sweetest of the lot so far. Totally awesome on almost any surface, but glass/hard mats are incredibly sweet.

I'm looking for a new mouse, at least if I cant fix my old Logi G5. I obviously don't want anything that will feel like a downgrade, but I also don't one that's too expensive.

I want one ofthese bad boys.

But fuck me, how much ? That's ludicrous!

That's not a mouse, it's the freakin' Batmobile!

Bumpage.

I'm looking for a new mouse, after my current one decided that the scroll nipple needn't work.

Nothing clever required, and I don't mind wired version (in fact, prefer 'em). Not a big fan of the whole "make it look like a Star Trek spaceship" design philosophy, so if it looks more-or-less like the Apple mouse I'm happy.

Any suggestions?

Heh - I was just looking at that on Amazon. At 11 quid, I can't really go wrong, I guess.

Ta DB.

Well, I guess I should have expected it, as it costed only a tenner, but what a tacky, cheaply made piece of shit this is.

So - can anyone recommend a well-built mouse that doesn't feel like it's made of polystyrene and glue?

The Razer 3g listed above, I'm cack handed, with hands like shovels and it fits perfectly.

Logitech G5. Still the best of all mouses.

Anyone got a Sidewinder X8?

I bought (and then sent back) dozens of 'gaming' mice - before settling on the Logitech MX Anywhere mouse. Nothing else came close in terms of comfort and performance.

Deleted user 6 December 2010 00:51:46

I'm starting to consider going back to my MX Nano, I just found it wasn't very precise and was unresponsive at times which annoyed me. But that is probably just my table. I bought the Madcatz MW2 mouse (it was very cheap on sale) and I hate it. Too big, bulky and clunky.

Still going strong! \o/

Bumpity.

Need a new mouse to sit nicely with the new pc which should be arriving shortly.

I love the Razer mice (owned a few already) but the build quality lets them down after a while (double clicking buttons etc). Tempted to buy another but thought i mgith give someone else a try.

Thinking of the Logitech G500 mouse. Anyone used one? Any good?

If theres any other recommendations i`ll have a look see.
