Thoughts On... The Anker High Precision Laser Gaming Mouse with 8000 DPI

Oh yeah!  Time to get my gaming on!
Hey there.  What's in a computer mouse?  It's just a thing to click on stuff, right?  WRONG!  A great mouse is everything when it comes to gaming.  It needs to have precision, it needs to be responsive, it needs to have buttons that are fully customizable, and it needs to be easy to use.  It sounds like a lot is going on in that sentence, doesn't it?  Well, our good friends at Anker provided me with the Anker High Precision Laser Gaming Mouse with 8000 DPI and it is EXACTLY what you are looking for in a high quality gaming mouse.  After more than a week of trying out this mouse, I can honestly say that it's the best mouse that I have every used.  Not just for gaming but for every day use as well.  Let's get to it, shall we?

TellTale The Walking Dead Game Giveway

Hey there.  Who's ready for another giveaway!  I've decided that I'm going to give away The Walking Dead Game from TellTale!  If you guys have not played this game, you no longer have an excuse not to.  The complete first season (5 episodes) are now available on Xbox 360 and PS3!  Now, you too can take on the role of Lee and see what choices you'll make on your quest to keep Clementine safe and survive.  I've mentioned this game before and I've dubbed this game as the 2012 game of the year.  The game is extremely well written and the choices that you make stay with you through all 5 seasons.  It's a pretty deep game and you'll be surprised by how your decisions affect your relationship with the characters in the game.  I strongly recommend check it out.  I'm glad that one of you will win a copy of the game and experience it first hand!
