Reviewed on August 20, 2008Microsoft's pared-down SideWinder X5 Mouse is supposed to offer PC gamers a lower-cost version of its award-winning higher-end model. Instead, it comes across as flimsy and overly stripped down. Other mice deliver better control for the same price.TAGS:Logitech, weight, mouse, Microsoft Corp., games
