I've been using an older Logitech Marathon mouse for the past year and a half. Mostly just for every day use with some light gaming. It recently started becoming unresponsive, and with Diablo III approaching I think it's time to replace it. The mouse worked well for every day use, but I plan on playing Diablo III pretty heavily so I would like to go with an actual gaming mouse.
I'd like to move away from Logitech and have been looking at Razer or SteelSeries. I'd like to keep it under $80. I also don't really care for MMO gaming mice or anything with more than 2-5 extra buttons. Simplicity is key.
The Razer Deathadder was my first choice. It's reasonably priced, and has gotten a lot of solid feedback. Only problem with that one is that it's a bit large, and I have small hands. Seems like it will be harder to use for me unless I used a full palm grip, which I don't like.
My second choice is the SteelSeries Diablo III mouse. It looks fantastic and is reasonably priced on Amazon right now at around $60. The only problem I see with that one is the negative feedback. Not about design, but about durability. Apparently a lot of people have had them break after short usage.
I play some shooters, mostly CSS and CoD, but the majority of time spent using the mouse will be on Diablo 3. Does anyone have any suggestions, or input on the two I am currently looking at?
