5.0 out of 5 stars Good gaming mouse, August 5, 2008

This review is from: Ideazon Reaper Gaming Mouse (Personal Computers)

First of all, I own 3 of them, all used heavily for gaming, and that in itself says something. It does have some problems but I still gave it 5 stars because despite them it is in my opinion the best mouse I ever had, including some more expensive gaming mice.
Let's start with negatives. It might look unusual but if for somebody those negatives are really critical, there is no point reading about positives. So:
1. It isn't really programmable. The side buttons are Home, End, Backspace and that's pretty much it. It usually isn't a problem since you can redefine buttons in game, but if you want to assign some complex macros on them, forget about it.
2. Sensitivity is usually reset to the default 800 when switching between fullscreen and windowed mode, sometimes between applications but I don't remember it resetting during the actual play. But wouldn't bet too much on that.
3. Optional driver does provide visual response on sensitivity change but it usually doesn't work in fullscreen.
4. One of the side buttons is hard to reach with your thumb, at list for me, so I push it with an index finger. Still better than not having a button at all.
5. One of the mice came with a defective cord that failed a few months. See, however, below about customer service.
Now the positives:
1. After that mouse left a request on their site, was asked to fill online some form and was given an instruction how to send it back. Which was to pack it in any box and call UPS for pickup. So the guy came took my box and after less than a week I received a brand new mouse in a sealed retail box. All completely free of any charges, no shipping, no nothing. Frankly, I was impressed. Don't have any problems since then.
2. Works very reliably on various surfaces.
3. Glides smoothly enough.
4. Aforementioned third side button.
5. Feels comfortable in hand (for 3 of us, your hand may be different).
6. Illuminated logo allows you to easily find it when screen went dark in a dark room. It isn't gaming related but still nice, I think.
7. Wheel button offers enough resistance to not press it unintentionally while switching weapons. That's important for me because I almost always use this button, usually for some weapon related activities like withdrawing weapon.
Overall, if negatives don't scare you I would highly recommend this mouse.

3.0 out of 5 stars Would be great if you can get drivers, December 16, 2008

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Ideazon Reaper Gaming Mouse (Personal Computers)

I just recieved this mouse from Amazon.com today. It works great until you go to switch user accounts on Vista. Then it freezes and you have to unplug it and plug it back in. I tried to obtain a driver (version 1.3 fixes this issue per [..]) but the company has been bought out by Steel Series Gaming Gear that only offers information, software and downloads for it's 3 newest mice and other equipment. No mention of Ideazon products anywhere. There goes any support for my Fang Gaming Keyboard that I bought earlier this year. Needless to say, I have searched everywhere for this driver with no success, so I'm forced to return it.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Ideazon Reaper Gaming Mouse (Personal Computers)

This thing is great. If you constantly are having online game trauma, this mouse is all you need. I can BREATHE and this mouse moves! It is redicuous. And the programmable side buttons ensure revenge on your opponents who think they have an advantage! Take that reflexes!!
