What Mouse Do You Use?

Mon Mar 03, 2003 8:26 am by aerundel

Since the whole game is centered around the mouse, we should talk about it, don't you think?

I use the Logitech Dual Optical. Great mouse. And before that I used a Logitech iFeel Optical (2 buttons w/scroll, not the Mouseman). That's a great mouse to play Medal of Honor with, btw, since it has force feedback. I like Logitech because its mice have a good heft to it that MS doesn't. My next purchase will probably be the MX500, unless a newer one comes out by Christmas.

Also, if anyone uses the MX 700, please tell us about it! I'm all for wireless mice being the next big thing in gaming, and only testimonials will get the ball rolling.

I still have to buy a new mouse yet, but it'll probably be a iFeel or MX700

At least it has to have a scrollwheel.

A worn out Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 1.0

Paint is coming off and I cant move the mouse as fast anymore in twitch games.

Whooooosh...moved to OT.

I use a Logitech Optical Cordless.
Nice mouse, batteries last only 1-2 weeks but theyre rechargable

I just use a regular old mouse, the one which couldn't be more standard

I'll be buying a new mouse before FL hits the shelves though. Probably a Logitech iFeel or MX 700 or something like that. It has to have at least a scrollwheel.

Logitech MX 500 here! I have no complaints, although once I accidentally bumped the side buttons (the ones that move you forward or back in your browser) and lost a HUGE post I was making. Otherwise, it's the best mouse I've ever used.

The MX 700, from what I've read, performs just as well as the 500. Only difference is that it's a little heavier.

Hehe, titbits.

Right now? I'm using my sis' mouse. It's a standard HP mouse. I use a Thrust cordless Optical mouse. Works fine for me!

So far been going with th echeap $12 mouse/keyboard kombo I bought when I built the computer a few weeks ago. I figured it was one area I could save some cash on until I had the system up and running, and paid off the compuetr.

Planning on getting an optical logitech as soon as this one fails...any day now.
