I have a gaming mouse. so much better than my old oneDivergeUnifyi use the original Microsoft Sidewinder mouse, and find it pretty much impossible now to game with other mice. It's extremely comfortable and VERY functional. Highly reccommended. And no, there's nothing wrong with a regular mouse and keyboard, but keep in mind that they're not designed with gaming in mind, and thus are definitely not as good when it comes to gaming. My old Gateway keyboard and mouse worked GREAT until i got the Sidewinder, and then everything changed.
They're worth it, although less for the 'gaming' classification and more for the build quality.
I don't use a gaming keyboard, but I do have a Logitech G5, which is easily the best mouse I've ever used. It could stand to have a forward button beside the back thumb button, but it's got a great shape, decent weight (with the weights added), and tracks across large screens beautifully.
A gaming mouse is all that's needed really. The only reason I would get a gaming keyboard is because it lights up, and that is only some that do that.unrealplaya55Same for me
ya i have a logitech g11 gaming keyboard and a razer diamond back mouse
both were well worth the money.
I have a Razer Diamondback mouse. Honestly, I don't think it was worth the price. It feels and acts pretty much the same as any other mouse, but with a few more buttons. A friend gave me a G15 keyboard, but I hated the thing as its extra marco buttons were all configured in such a way as to make it completely useless for a leftie like me.
The two gaming perihperals that I do have and can't do without are my TrackIR headtracker and my trusty old MS Sidewider 2 FFB joystick.
I'm upgrading to a Razer mouse tomorrow and I might go ahead and get a new headset too. I'm not sure about the headset though; not a whole lot of people actually use voice chat in games these days.theafiguyIf you're referring to the Barracuda Headphones, I'd advise against them. The rear drivers are complete crap and nifty at best, but I guess they do provide a bit of spacial awareness, as you can track enemies who are on the other side of a wall. The mic in it is insensitive and you need to scream to be heard, so a Zalman clip-on mic is pretty much required. Sound quality is good enough, but you'd likely expect more for what you pay.
I use a Logitech G15 first gen keyboard. This thing is great. The best part of it is the back lit keys.
Otherwise looking to replace my Logitech Media Click Mouse with a gaming mouse soon, this one is starting to show its age.

Same thing here :P
I like how everyone says "its amazing" yet they never explain why! -_-Daytona_178I have a Razer Tarantula, mainly because it can register more than 5 keys at once.

My old Gateway keyboard and mouse worked GREAT until i got the Sidewinder, and then everything changed. im guessing you have big hands for the sidewinder to be comfortable :) i have a gaming keyboard (a microsoft reclusa (powered by razer)) and i love it because of the jog dials and extra macro-able keys. i also have an a4-tech x7 gaming mouse (again, i need the macroable keys). i, too, cant go back to a normal mouse now. im looking into buying a mouse with buttons for my now-idle pinky finger :P
Razer lycosa keyboard
