    My steelseries mouse came in! YAY so excited to see it waiting for me when I came home from work today. I can't wait to see how it works in-game. Apparently the mouse plumbob lights change color depending on your Sim's current emotion. So cool!

    Did anyone else buy them, or the steelseries headset one? Or the mouse pad?

    I paid $29.99 + $10 shipping directly from steelseries website.

      That looks awesome! I'm tempted to get one myself, but I already bought the Sims 4 Collector's Edition so I'll have the cool light-up plumb bob :D!

      I ordered it directly from steelseries.com.

      The mouse was $29.99

      But $10 shipping!

      Overall, I'm OK paying $40 for a mouse. I play other games, first-person-shooters, and always buy mice in the $40-70 range.

      I never bought a game-branded mouse before, though, but I know steelseries is a really great manufacturer!!!

      Thanks for asking!

      I... I need this in my life. I am so jealous. If only it wasn't outside of affordable range for me. T_T

      That is interesting looking. I don't think I could ever be without my current mouse though. We've become so attached haha

      Nice. Steelseries is a very well renowned brand.

      I can't tell... is it shaped symmetrically so a lefty can use it or is it only for you right-handed people who get everything handed to you on a gold platter curved just the correct shape for you and your right hand to grasp and hit all of us left-handed people in face with it?

      Huh? I looked on Amazon today and it said pre-order? Im guessing America is recieving it first then?
      It looks soooo pretty though, I am tempted xD

      I just ordered mine tonight and the headphones as well. £25 for the mouse and £35 for the headphones and about £4 for postage. I'm getting the CE as well so I'll have the usb plumbob. I'll probs look like a Christmas tree come the 5th September :-p

      It appears to be right-handed only, since the side buttons are only on the left (for the thumb).

      It says on the site that it's an ambidextrous mouse. :)

      Post a picture of the headphones when you get them!

      I wish I could get the USB plumbob. I still have mine from the Sims 3.

      I'm surprised they would say that. There are no side buttons on both sides, just the left side for right-handers.

      One more question (if I may) ....


      Is that a wireless mouse? Or, does it have a usb cord? Can't tell through the packaging.

      Think I spy a wire coming out the top. You can see a wire on the website, too.

      I'm planning on getting the mouse. Mostly so that I don't steal my fiance's mouse. He does not appreciate it when I do that. The sims is really the only game I use a mouse for.
