Logitech set to takeover the world.
lAboMbA | 12:54 PM on 08.21.2007 3 comments




The new-fangled G9 Logitech mouse comes out this week without much fanfare. I've currently owned the last few generations of Logitech's gaming meece (mx510, mx518, G5) and I'm fairly pumped over a new release on an already rock solid hardware line-up. Logitech claims upwards of 3200 dpi, interchangeable grips, and personal mouse settings for up to 5 profiles. Seems nifty, but i still have some reservations...especially after having to resort back to my mx518 on a few occasions due to some crap ass BF2/QuakeIII G5 issues. Any plans on obtaining one of these little guys? Dropping a hundo seems a little steep at the moment.

Oh yeah, and what about the newly redesigned G15 programmable keyboard? Seems pretty swooft, you know, with the orange backlit keys and lcd as opposed to the original blue. I dunno though, seems like they bastardized it by removing 12 of the 18 macro (G) keys. Also, the volume knob has been all borked up. I'm hoping i can get one of the original G15's on the cheap...i think i saw it on buy.com for $60.

At any rate, happy fraggin' to alls and to alls a goodnight.

That's way more features than I can ever imagine needing on a mouse... but that doesn't make it any less awesome.

 about me

ah, let's see. Nobunaga's Ambition (nes, snes, genesis) is my favorite game. I currently own...nes, snes, genesis, dreamcast, ds, xbox 360, and a wittle wii.

I hit 30 this year, so i'm not quite hardcore anymore. BUT. Games are probably the mainstay of my current extracurricular activities outside of being a father and husband. I gots TWO little whiper snappers, a boy and a girl. My daughter (age 4) has a knack for the video games and is currently enjoying what ever random wiisports/play event i throw at her. My wife hijacked my DS and has logged 30+ hours in Super Princess Peach and continues to play it...regardless of how many times she beats it. My son is less than a year old and currently unable to partake in any reindeer games, but i did recently purchase some robot encrusted jammeys for him to sleep in.
