My 1st Gen Razer Mamba is on its way out the door, its been roughly 4 amazing years but I am starting to feel the left button stick a little.
So I have been doing some research into gaming mice and the market has expanded quite a bit since I bought this one.
Some info: I play primarily FPS, with some MMO on the side. I like HIGH DPI mice. Whenever I am at a friends house and I use their lower grade DPI gaming mice I cringe on the inside. Also I like them heavier. I like to actually feel the weight when I move my mouse. I am not sure of what grip style it is but I move my mouse with my wrist primarily. I used the diamond Back mouse back in the day and I DO NOT wanna go back to a claw grip. Lastly, I do not like Logitech's line of products, I know alot of people swear by them but I do not like them at all.
Some of the mouses that I have been looking at:
Roccat Kone XTD.
-I LOVE the DPI on this bad boy. However I have also heard some nto so great thinsg about the company as a whole. I have heard their products feel cheap overall and that the mouse wheel breaks frequently. Is there any merit to this?
Razer Ouroborus.
- Again this looks like a beast gaming mouse. I love the customization of it, plus the amazing DPI it offers. However I have some concerns.
A) it's a Razer product and from first hand experience their quality control is trash. I have ordered 4 headsets from them, 3 keyboards before I finally realized that I just got lucky with my mamba.
B) It seems overpriced
C) It does not seem to be available to the public yet and waiting might not be an option.
Commenst on any fo those points are appreciated.
Steelseries
- I have heard very positive things abbot steelseries from friends, however none of them are actually gamers and buy whatever Blizzard/Activision tells them to.
What seems to be the premiere mouse in this lineup to even look at ? I keep hearing things about the sensei but they have been mixed. I have heard that they have a kind of cheap feel to them. Also, the 5700 DPI pales in comparison to the others I have mentioned.
Razer Mamba
- Maybe I struck gold the first time aroudn and should try for it again? Is the mamba still king of the hill or has it faded into the background?
