Exclamation All you '3D shooter' players!

Which optical mouse is better?
The Logitech MouseMan Dual Optical (which has 2 lasers but needs to be USB connected for optimum results) or the Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer Optical?

don't use optical mice for shooters, just use an ordinary 'ball' mouse. (too jumpy, and unconsistantly-sensitive)

I would have to agree with dkjsafbjk its hard enough with a ball mouse. I would imagine that a laser guided one would be jumpier. Plus most shooting games require good precision.

Laser has better precision than ball.

And that's why we use laser.
