Why you need a Gaming Mouse?

A common misconception about the gaming mouse is that is just a way of getting extra money from gamers and they don't actually provide any benefit to the player at all. As an avid gamer I know this isn't true and know that a gaming mouse is one of the most import pieces of hardware you can have to improve your game.

The main thing that is different between your bog standard Microsoft mouse and the G5 is the DPI of the mosue (DPI being Dots per Inch). A higher DPI basicly means that the mouse can see more pixels making the mouse more sensitive. There are also the added feature of extra buttons on the side of the mouse, If you want to quickly change to knife in game you can simply bind this key to the mouse saving only a fraction of a second but that could mean the difference between getting the kill and not.

If you want to make your gaming experience even more worthwhile you should invest in a gaming mouse mat. Again this may seen like a money grabbing scheme by the manufactures but I can asure you, its not. Adding a Quality mousemat such as the Icemat can make that extra difference because the mouse becomes even more sensitive because the mouse can move much more freely it helps with aiming.

Personally I would buy the Logitech G5, I've gone through many Gaming Mice in my time and even destroyed a few of them out of frustration. Out of all the Mice I have tried I like the G5 the best, because of the weights in the bottom of the mouse so I can have a different setups for different games. Its very durable as-well, knowing first hand as I've thrown it against the wall and it still works fine

Bellow is a very excitable review on the G5, although its the 2142 game version its still virtually the same and applies to the ordinary one.
