Wow...terrible. But at least Amazon is throwing us a bone with the DOTD. I'd prefer crap than no deals ever.

Ugh, this again? Last time it was $7.99 and somehow managed to make it into a top seller spot.

I guess I'm one of the people the helped it get there. I bought it, and laugh all you want, but it does what it's supposed to do.

It really hasn't reviewed all that badly either (and the reviews were written with it's original $69 price tag in mind)...

It's ok.. it just takes getting used to. Needless to say I haven't been using it because of the learning curve. Back to my trusty MX518 for me.

You say this to every DotD. I didn't even know they made this for other systems. There are games for the computer. Don't be so ignorant

While this is a terrible mouse.(There's way too much play in the trigger.) It makes a great conversation piece on your desk at work.

I call it my "ergonomic" mouse.

Why any big PC gamer would give up their mouse for this one I have no clue. as a gimmick its kinda cool (like the chainsaw controller for RE4), but to pay $6+S&H, it just isn't worth it IMO.

Oh dear god, I remember this item from a few months ago and people defending it. *shivers*

lol, it's back! but whatevers, it's cheap and if you want to mess around. The build quality is fantastic.... Sadly it was not fun to use after an hour and just started becoming a pain in the ass. Spending this little cash on something like this is non dumber than paying a premium on rare games like so many people on this board seem to embrace......

There was a guy at work who swore by it, and I remember making fun of him for it. To each their own.

I also remember when they were showing it off in Kentia hall in E3 and laughing at the people who were trying to sell it... I kinda feel bad now, it isn't that bad of a product and if I still played FPS' as regularly as I used to I might get one.
