Gaming mice – beware the hype

A list full of features that you probably won’t need to care about

Totally agree. I do hate those mice with a zillion button on the side. I just don't see the point of assigning all those buttons to one finger since that is almost always going to be slower than assigning keyboard shortcuts, also by moving you thumb around that much you could move your mouse along with it which would be bad.

Finally the Logitech MX518 gets some recognition, never had the inclination to try one of those lame Razer wannabes.

Logitech do make some awesome Mice but I love my Razer Death Adder.

+1 Have had my Mx518 for years and it still works perfectly, don't need any other fancy things.

Is there a part of the article missing?

So if all of the above isn’t really important, what is? Well comfort for starters, and features that you can actually notice in game.

I can surely notice a 300dpi vs 900dpi+. When I play FPS I don't want to move around my whole table, I prefer as little as possible where as slower speeds are better for something like a mmo.

I don't get the article

Side note, best gaming mouse mat I currently have is a R10 plastic thin cutting board. It is vastly superior to the roccat R400-something mat...

I wanted to like the MX518, but.... I am left-handed.

That's why I love the Razer Krait. It's a gaming mouse, just without all those unnecessary things that you're never going to use anyway.

I've had my Razer Krait since 2006 only sent it back once for the left button.

I also Have a Razer Naga Molten, I like all those buttons even when your not using them in a particular game, I do use them in other games, They do rather come in handy even for FPS.
