No thanks. I'll play my FPSes without looking terrible thank yous.
Re: trackball vs mouse
the good thing about trackballs is that you can use the underside to smash spiders

I don't have an opinion of trackballs, I think they are an odd interest. Never been a fan of them.
Re: trackball vs mouse
Beherith: that's the exact same model I'm using right now.
I like it very much. After years of using a regular mouse, its a little odd at first, and even now that I'm well acquainted with it I find it a little less exact than a regular mouse, but its much more comfortable and I can use it wherever I want.
Its exceptionally good in enclosed spaces, and when I'm leaning back relaxin' while surfing the intertubes.

I also use that same model Logitech trackman. I switched to a trackball at work when 12+ hours of computer use per day (no, not all at work) was causing wrist pain. The pain is all gone now, but I still use a mouse at home for gaming.
Re: trackball vs mouse
Beat me with a mouse and you with a trackball playing an fps and I'll use a trackball.

I'll never use a trackball.

I have met some good players who use trackball. I think it just personal preference.
Re: trackball vs mouse
I've met a good fps player with a single hand but he can't win against a good player with two hands.
I agree with the fact trackball can be better for health purpose but a mouse has a better accuracy, speed, ...

I use that mouse.imbaczek wrote:the mother of all mice
It was the cheapest one i found on ebuyer with 5 buttons, that is the only reason i use such an over the top mouse.
Switiching sensitivity on the fly (when i scope up a sniper) does still feel a bit like cheating tho.

I use the same mouse, its awesome, and so reliable.rattle wrote:
The weights just made the whole thing perfect, pointless to me at first, but i found having the right weight meant i didn't pull my mouse up while playing FPS.
My only problem is that the side button, the furthest button away, (mouse button 5?) is a tad to far away and a bit to small for my liking, i have big hands, so it must fucking suck for people who have small ones.
Or, i could have been holding a mouse wrong for 12 years of my life?
Also, LOL@thefaggotsusingtrackballs.
go get a job guys.
