Check this mouse out, pointed out to me by my old WoW Guildmate, Evil Monkey.

It's a custom made mouse for World Of Warcraft with a mega arse-ton of buttons and options.

World Of Warcraft Game Mouse
 
And here's the configuration software for it. It even has the same look as the game. Pretty slick.
 
WoW mouse configuration software screen

It says some of it's features are:

  • Program all 15 buttons with over 130 preset game commands
  • Create custom macros (supports in-game macros)
  • Develop up to 10 profiles, each with a unique illumination scheme
  • Choose from 16 million colors, all with 4 levels of intensity and pulsation
  • 3200 Max DPI (wow)

Full info can be found on it's page.

If I didn't already have a new Logitech MX518, (love it) I'd probably pick this bad boy up. Just make sure to hide it when any chicks walk in. Wink

You can get it from here or here.

Re: World Of Warcraft Mouse for the Uber Geek

Oh I know quite a few who would love this.  I'm so glad my kids aren't WOW kids.  I do have one who is addicted to Final Fantasy.  That's not a bad price for all that it does Big Grin

Re: World Of Warcraft Mouse for the Uber Geek

When I played, I used to run into countless couples who played together. I'd even say at least half of players. Tons of married couples. And there were almost as many women spending countless hours a day as guys. Especially on WoW.

Re: World Of Warcraft Mouse for the Uber Geek

I wonder if those yellow lines on it actually light up. That would be cool looking! I also wonder if all ofthose buttons can be programmed for use outside of the game. Imagine all the things you could do in window, or photoshop or so with so many programmable buttons.

Re: World Of Warcraft Mouse for the Uber Geek

you can get a mouse like this: 

Logitech MX518 8 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Optical 1800 dpi Gaming Mouse

That is 8 buttons you can program as you want (it comes with the software).  I have a Logitech mouse that I can set 4 programs on (so does my one son).  Side buttons drive me nuts where as my son loves them.

Re: World Of Warcraft Mouse for the Uber Geek

Yea those are lights behind the "armor" and they do light up.  They actually change color and get bright and dimm and stuff.  there is a small little preview movie you can watch on there website. 

I"m pretty sure you can use the mouse and buttons outside of wow.  At least I would hope you could.  I just think that the software was desinged for wow and gives you a way to easilly program the buttons in game.  Probably for other games you would need to just program them to key commands and set those in game.

Re: World Of Warcraft Mouse for the Uber Geek

These are pretty slick.

I dont like to admit that I play wow. I took a year or so off to check out other games but i'm back to wow. It's fun. But if your not carefull it can become a problem fast! It is like crack. I play very casually and never when my kids are up and want to play. I work a full time job, go to school and have a 3, and 1 year old, 2 dogs and a morgage. I save it for later at night and weekends. But I do know people that play every night and for a long time. Not sure how they get anything done!
