SteelSeries Unveils The Ultimate WoW Mouse

[BenMster]

I just received my SS Wo.W mouse and i am having some issues with it.

I had one on order for 6 months up here in Canada, but found it on a shelf in the states over the weekend.

I'd read the poor reviews, but wanted to satisfy my curiosity after all this time, so I disposed of some disposable income and picked one up.

For starters my buttons feel like they're made out of cheap ass plastic, as in really cheap ass for the $ i paid..WTF?!?

It gives me the tingles in my fingers and i thought i had a major issue with RSI after playing for 5 hours straight but no, apparantly it's some issue where there's electricity being leaked out onto the chasis. I want to return mine but their tech support hasn't gotten back to me. So much for money well spent.

I think im going to hit up a G5 or the mamba, which is kinda too expensive. there's even a bunch of guys suing blizzard for it at http://petitiononline.com/wowmouse for flouting the TOS. sign up if you're facing problems with your mouse!

seems like there's so much complaints about the mouse in every forum i searched for. wtf

Well this is a useful tool. I might ever get one, but not for WoW but Dota. Anyway, what I really wanted to say is :

STOP ADVERTISING SHIT UNDER DIFFERENT, USUALLY LAME, EXCUSES ! Well that is, unless you people receive money for this stuff...

Are you talking to The Escapist editors here? I think this is definitely gaming news. I really don't think they're getting payed for linking to an IGN article, and there's no Escapist referrer id added to any of the links.

What I have more of an issue with is companies sticking game brands and logos on everything and labeling it as the next big thing, such as WoW energy drinks. In this case though they did a really good job to integrate the mouse's software with the game. If it was just a mouse with a lot of buttons and the WoW logo then I wouldn't see the point in this apart from obvious hyping. But I see they did a really good job to integrate it with WoW, so I think it deserves its place in the market.

I've a simple 2 button+ scroll wheel Microsoft mouse with a flashing red light. And I can still own in TF2. What the hell is the point in having this then?

I have sworn to one day own one of these. I wouldn't even necessarily use it for wow so much as... everything?
