Which is the best gaming mouse?
I need to buy a gaming mouse and have come down to two options:Logitech MX 518 and Razer DeathAdder after searching the internet. I am right-handed and have a claw grip(for those who don't know about grip types:http://www.razerzone.com/mouseguide/ergonomic) and medium sized hands. So which is the best?

I would think the best mouse would be one that's not broken. Okay, I'll be serious now: I have a claw grip and use a mouse that uses a laser light on the bottom part instead of a sphere to move the pointer. Could you post pictures of the mouses' (mice?) you're interested in? A visual may help.

Honestly you are choosing between two very good mouses but my preference would not go past logitech. That one looks a bit like the G7 (which I have previously owned), and its friggin' awesome!
Here are some links for images

The problem with mx 518 is a palm grip mouse.
would it be comfortable for me?

Hrmm, not sure...
Try looking at other mouses.
i bought the cheapest logictech 1000dpi mouse i could find. i think it was around $9 on newegg.. it has 2 regular buttons. a scroll and a "scroll-click" (ie: middle mouse button). It's all you "need" and most importantly it's cheap and does the job. start adding a bunch of shit beyond that and you're paying for features you will very likely never use. if you're playing on the pc anyway (obviously) then you can just macro everything else you need with the keyboard and/or buy a gaming keyboard. I think "gaming mice" are rather pointless for the most part.

What are the odds that I think the opposite to you and think that gaming keyboards are completely useless?

I saw a wireless Microsoft mouse that was completely flat but could be snapped into a curved position for use. There's a spot of drool on the Best Buy floor in front of it now.
Anyway, I use a Logitech VX Nano, mainly because I do everything off my laptop. It's a fast mouse, has everything I need (two buttons, back/forward buttons, a window flip button I never even use, and a scroll wheel that a. can go sideways as well and b. can be "unlatched" to spin freely and fast), and cripes is that receiver small.
Now with 100% more inline comments!

well... to be fair. i consider gaming keyboards to be mostly useless too (i have a $12 wired logitech keyboard... it has 12 F keys.... they are at the top). but i could see them being more useful than a gaming mouse.
