Best overall gaming mouse?

Hi guys,

So i've decided i've had enough of my old basic mouse and want a gaming mouse instead. That said, i'm spoiled for choice and wondered if anyones got any advice? I play a variety of game genres and so it would need to suit that but at the moment i'm more ficused on mmo's.

My left hand is a bit messed up from having to get a metal plate in it from a boxing injury and so it feels stiff and slower than it used it I can operate WASD effectively (just) , so I'm looking for it to have a fair few customisable buttons so i don't feel handicapped and slow for pvp or deathmatches etc .I've got a budget of around £65 pounds tops

So far sites say the Naga, G500 and Cyborg Rat 5-7 are good, Heres what i found out;

The Cyborg has precision aim, loos like a transformer but only has 5 buttons (even if ergonomic) and apparently has awful customer service.

The Naga has 12 buttons but seems to only focus on mmo and the buttons seem small and unergonomic. I noticed they have released the Naga Hex, anyone used this, looks like the buttons are in better positions but only half of them are there?

The G500 has a good rep but doesn't boast anything special. (Have i missed the point on this one?)

What do you think? Anyone had any of these mice and care to share their opinions? Or have/had a gaming mouse which they rate?

Thanks

I love the G500. It's comfortable, precise, and has all the buttons and features you'll ever need.

I got its older brother, the G700, its 7 customisable buttons and also different profile sets for games, also an adjustable DPI.

I agree the G500 does look very good but did you feel held back in MMO's as it only has 5 button that can be used for gaming? (realistically)

Anyone used any other mice? Opinions. thoughts etc

I heard the Cyborg MMO7 was good for ahem MMO's.... Any thoughts on the Hex?

Thanks

I also have the cordless G700, it controls better then any mouse i've had before. Only downsides is the buttons are in somewhat odd locations and take time getting used to. Also the left and right click buttons are a bit too easy to hit by accident... especially the right click.

And the battery life is extremely short, maybe 1 or 2 days at high usage (not a big deal though since u can swap in any AA rechargable battery within seconds) And i have a ton of AA batteries sitting around, its actually kinda useful to keep my AA batteries in a good charging cycle instead of sitting around aging and not having their cells charged up.

My old mouse was a logitech mx1000, which had superior button layout, but not as accurate movement control as the G700... tough switch, but overall, the better movement of the G700 beats the mx1000... even though the mx1000 feels much better.

I recently got razor naga.... and having a blast with GW2 and BF3

Sounds like the G500 is good then. Anyone had experience with the cyborgs or the new Naga Hex?

mx510 nuff said.

all comes down to preference and grip style. as well wether or not your left or right handed.

so yeah technically any mouse is a good overall mouse. i like my diamondback 3g. others prefer the mx510 or the rat 7. heck i know folks who still use gneeric logitech and microsoft mice. i even know a dude who games using a microsoft curve mouse *shudders* i could neevr see myself using a curve.. that thing is jsut foreign to me

I was going to get the Logitech M510, but I just recently found the Microsoft Wireless 7000 Rechargeable Laser Mouse. The 7000 wireless laser only uses one AAA battery, so it's very light, it's got extra buttons, it's got a rechargeable base, and it's almost identical to the $200 Logitech MX Revolution. And you can find them for about $20 now, so I'm going to go ahead and get that one personally. The best mouse that I ever owned was a MS mouse. Hopefully this one won't disappoint...superclocked

seer may i ask what game you play professionally? i think u just butthurt over something and are afraid to admit it

any old cheap optical mouse http://www.amazon.com/Jasco-Products-Co-98529-Optical/dp/B004Z2991K

Razer lachesis perfect shape for fps.

I have a G500. Its a pretty good mouse but I have my complaints about it.

I dont like the placement for the thumb buttons. They are a bit far back so its a little awkward reaching that last button because when you curl your thumb back that far, your index also has to curl (anatomy). Also the wheel is a little weak.

only people who ever beat me were people with custom quake configs have weapons binded to certain buttons i just used default controls for weapons cough numbers and scroll wheel on mouse they could switch weapons faster.

i considered it cheating though.
