The Razer Abyssus Reviewed

Gaming mice have always been a confusing decision for gamers to make. Some mice give you 200 million buttons to use, but you end up using some or none at all. What if you wanted a high performance gaming mouse with all the bells and whistles, but wrapped in a simple 3 button design?

Well, if that is what you want, then the Razer Abyssus is the one for you. But what does Abyssus really mean? According to Google and Razer’s marketing blurb, an Abyssus is “a venomous pit viper, found only in the United States and is commonly known as the Grand Canyon Rattlesnake”.
