This "gaming mice" category is becoming the growing grounds for the exact same mouse being made by many new "revolutionary" designers.  All gaming mice gets categorized as such:<br>1.  Office palm mice made pretty (logi-g5,g7)<br>2.  Full palm mice made spaceship (logi-g9, MS-sidewind, saitek-cyborg)<br>3.  Small, light flat mice (razer)<br>4.  Chubby and short (Fatal1ty, 'oldschool' wingman)<br>5.  Totally weird mice (r2,evoluent)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pretol]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 10th 2007 12:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ROCCAT intros new line of gaming peripherals]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</guid><description><![CDATA[what more do you want from a mouse? I have had my mx518 for 2-3 years now, and want to replace it, but I haven't found any mouse thats worth the price compared to what I already have. Problem is, theres nothing else they can add to a mouse that is worth the price of a new one. All they can do is add marginal improvements for the day when my mouse does break, so thats what they do. No point tryign to improve what is already perfect.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 10th 2007 6:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ROCCAT intros new line of gaming peripherals]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</guid><description><![CDATA[I want new and revolutionary...  I remember when boomslang came out, it was like nothing else...   I'm just commenting that mice is not interesting anymore...

Guess thats not important for a gaming mouse huh ROCCAT? Looks great but I'll wait to see some reviews before I shell out $100+ for it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[makishima]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 10th 2007 1:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ROCCAT intros new line of gaming peripherals]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well that is because this magnificent 'dpi' is a marketing gimmick. Yes, the sole thing most gaming mice are marketed on is a gimmick. Holy dubious marketing scheme Batman!<br><br>If you've done any research on the subject, you'd know that dpi isn't what counts. Just check under ROCCAT's section 'stop the fairytales' on the site. <a href="http://www.roccat.org/index.php?ROCCAT=Fairy+Tales" rel="nofollow">http://www.roccat.org/index.php?ROCCAT=Fairy+Tales</a>. The other manufacturer who has also taken no bullshit line in making gaming accessories is steel series (<a href="http://www.steelseries.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.steelseries.com/</a>).<br><br>Overall it's nice to see someone not trying to piss into the consumer's eye for once. I wish that consumers themselves would also see that 3200986647689 'dpi' won't really make a mouse. So to answer your question: No. dpi isn't an important fact in a gaming mouse.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Omecha]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 14th 2007 2:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ROCCAT intros new line of gaming peripherals]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</guid><description><![CDATA[nice logo...<br><br>Thunder...

Maybe when it comes down in price after the launch. I was liking keyboard too, but the backslash key (\) is in the wrong spot for me and that is a complete deal breaker.

It seem quite nice and smooth (though there was a problem with the scroller, which the guy at the stall said was because it had been dropped on the ground or something, but it had removed the "clicking" of the scroller and if you spun it hard enough it got stuck/sticky). It was very very smooth when used together with their mousepad. One thing that I thought was lame was the color LCD things, but I couldn't try that as the driers weren't completely done yet or something.<br><br>The keyboard also seemed nice. Though nothing out of the ordinary (compared to similar keybords, but a cheaper alternative to a keyboard with backlighting).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Holger]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 11th 2007 3:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ROCCAT intros new line of gaming peripherals]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/10/roccat-intros-new-line-of-gaming-peripherals/</guid><description><![CDATA[of course, engadget forgets to mention the best and most revolutionary feature of the kone, the dcu, a distance sensor so the cursor doesnt move when the mouse is lifted for repositioning, experienced gamers are familiar with this problem.
