eh, I've bought my share of gaming mice... sold most of them/gave them away, though, cuz they're not THAT much better than your basic optical. Yes, I can tell the difference, but not enough to warrant the price, IMO. I still have my G500, in case I ever wanna "get serious" again, lol.Kami you cheap mofo! Yeh, me too. I shop eBay for M$ mouse. Usually bulk stuff. Good enough for me. I wouldn't mind a dedicated gaming mouse tho. Im sure they're a lot better than my basic opti mouse.
