This was a hilarious comment, but because it was based off of a comment that was edited, it no longer makes any sense and has now also been edited. For shame!

Allow me to dismantle your argument:

Every press release is the “company line”. I have yet to try the thing out so I can’t give you my opinion of it. It clearly says “From the fact sheet”. I don’t know what other information I could give you other than to inform you about the item. Should we stop giving you information about gaming-related things? Is that what you want?

You can go to the website if you want to but they don’t sell this mouse on their website, so congratulations on your baseless accusation that I’m trying to drive sales. Almost every single post on Ripten links to a company or source website, so I don’t know why you think this is so different.

Maybe you don’t know how the blogging universe works, but I damn sure am not going to see any dollars for any of these things that get sold, especially since, as I already said, they don’t even sell this thing from their website.

I apologize if I thought that some gamers would actually care about a gaming mouse. Believe it or not, most people browse the interwebs on a PC, and they generally use a mouse and keyboard to do it. You are probably using a mouse right now. You don’t have to give a shit about a gaming mouse — I really don’t care either way. Please don’t insult my integrity and your own intelligence by leaving stupid comments like these. Put your e-peen away, and don’t make Dan Landis have to choke a bitch.

And DavidGX: More hours are spent gaming on PC’s than on consoles, so “gaming with a mouse” is sooo super “lawl”, right?

YWow, you guys are shameless. This kind of ‘stealth’ advertising is pathetic, and frankly insulting. I don’t think many people visit a games site to be feed the company line on a gaming mouse.

You may as well have just told us to go buy it from the website (which you’ve helpfully linked) so you’ll get your slither of the sale.

This site has really gone downhill recently.
