Yeah I know....I've used those before and just wanted an idea of what the other gamers here used. I hardcore into gaming so wanted something a little durable. I think I'm going to go with the Func one or that Ultimat. Haven't fully decided yet.

Look for a review once I buy it.

Lemme tel you a story about my Ultimat. I was at a lan party and I was packing up my truck afterwards.. I left the mouse pad on top of the truck cab. It stayed there the entire trip home, about 3 miles. I did a top speed of about 60 mph on the way home. This speaks for it's non-slip ability.

Now that's a review if I ever heard one.

Ideazon Counter-Strike FragMat Gaming Mouse Pad

My son uses this for the 3 hours a day of Games I let him play.

I tried it and liked it ... he likes it and it is reasonable in cost and value and just the right size.

XTRAC Ripper Optical Mouse pad

I use this one and cut it in half so I would have 2 of them.

I prefer just a tiny bit of cushion with a smooth surface that will not wear out the G5 mouse shoes.

I've been using a WOWPAD, has nothing to do with World of Warcraft, and I really have enjoyed using this one for about 18 months. Some how, the tornado didn't get it.

It's the lower, right hand 11.5"x12.5" LFR48. Produces very accurate movement.

I use a 15 dollar allsop brand mousepad I got from bestbuy, good hard surface, metal base for weight, with a nice rubber base. Works great for my g5, and it was cheap too. They dont sell one quite like it anymore though, although they have one that's a little more now (about 18 bucks)

Yeah ... my G5 lets me up my mouse speed on the fly ... so if I am flying aircraft and need the extra ... I up my speed versus needing extra mouse space.

So a smaller mat works fine for me since my mouse can increase its sensitivity on the fly.
