We take a look at Creative's new Fatal1ty Professional Laser Gaming Mouse and see if it can take it to the big
boys at Logitech, Microsoft and Razer
Over the last couple of years a niche section of the PC accessories market has taken off in a big way. That section is Gaming Mice – high resolution, highly featured mice aimed solely at the hardcore gamer market. For a normal home or business user to buy one of these mice is simply a waste of money. Because so much of the high-end PC components and peripherals market has always been driven by gamers, there will always be a market for these specialized mice, no matter what the price.
This section of the market was kicked off with the Razer Boomslang Gaming Mouse, which was released in 1999, and even though it was based on an old ball-mouse, it was still very well received by hardcore gamers. Razer is still around today, releasing industry leading gaming mice, and has even recently paired with Microsoft to make the MS Habu gaming mouse, but the current gaming/high-end mouse market is certainly dominated by Logitech. Their G5 and the more basic G3 gaming mice are sweeping the floor with their competitors, carrying on from the success of the MX510 and MX518 mouse (which I still use at home). So is there still hope for a newcomer to enter the market? Well… yes.
Enter the Creative Fatal1ty Professional Laser Gaming Mouse.
