I received three items for gamers from SteelSeries to review. QCK Mousepad for World of Warcraft, Kinzu Optical Mouse and Zboard gaming keyboard. My initial reaction for each was they were OK. Then they were given the ultimate test, Don.
If you’ve read any of my other reviews you’ll know Don is a PC gamer so he was the logical choice to test these products.
OCK Mousepad for World of Warcraft. $14.99 
Pros:
- Large surface area
- Grips well, doesn’t slide on the table or desktop
- Soft -to me it had a satin feel
- Thin and flexible for portability
- Mouse tends to track well
- Not as grainy as a regular cloth mousepad
Cons:
- Couldn’t find anything he didn’t like
Kinzu Optical Mouse $34.99 
Pros:
- Solid, good construction
- Response time is good
- Small, fits well in your hand
- Skates well
- Braided cord is a nice feature
Cons:
- Missing side buttons which are fairly common on gaming mice
- Sensitivity controls for mouse is adjustable only by installing their software
Zboard gaming keyboard $50.00 Additional keysets $24.99
Pros:
- Well constructed
- Responsive
- Keys are fairly tight
- Interchangeable keysets is a novel idea. Can have keysets which are game specific as well as a standard QWERTY keyset for everyday use
- Multimedia buttons which are unusual for a gaming keyboard
- 2 USB ports on the keyboard
Cons:
- Couldn’t find anything he didn’t like
All in all he was very impressed with this gaming gear and felt they were well worth the money.
