         I have been using this pad for about a week now and i have to say, after some getting used to the flexibility this keyboard introduces into your game play is astounding. Within seconds i can configure any key i desire to perform an array of functions and commands or simply mimic the current key mappings from my keyboard. This game pad has three modes each providing a beautiful custom back light color and a clean slate for our adventurous macro recording minds to setup complex one touch easy access to frequently performs tasks. Each game you play, the software loads a new "Profile" allowing you to fully program the G13 keys for each game and not have to carry around one standard key set. The best part is the on board storage that you can copy your profiles onto and take them with you, so you never have to worry about the constant reconfiguration that would normally take place every time you switched computers or software configurations. As with all products there seems to be a few things you would like to change and i myself have a few. One personal quirk that i have found to be slightly annoying but not unusable is the thumb stick. There is actually a button you can press if you push it down hard enough, but because of the shape and design of the thumb stick  your thumb doesn't typically provide enough force to depress on the fly leaving you "trying" to push it down. I have found that your normal TAB key is hard to find on this controller without training yourself to look for a smaller key, normally pressing in between G8 and G9. Having a great new piece of hardware looks nice on the desk but you also need to remember the space requirements as you will need to keep your keyboard handy for typing and performing normal functions. You have to keep in mind this is not in anyway a keyboard replacement and if your like me using the original blue G15 keyboard, space on my keyboard tray is already in high demand.

I think this new game pad provides the user with a gaming experience like no other and was deficiently crafted for the elite gamer in mind. It fits any color decor and will quickly attach itself to you like a new pair of lucky socks giving you superior control over your enemy.
