    Not only am I a big fan of laptops and PC games. I am addicted to gaming accessories. I would sometimes spend hours looking for new cool gaming gear, from keyboards and mice to graphic cards and rams. I started this thread to start a bunch of mini reviews of gaming accessories based on personal experience. Feel free to share you experiences so that we can all benefit.

    Thanks

    I once saw a silicone sleeve that was laying on a year old Toshiba Satellite's keyboard. Not only does it feel great, the keyboard doesn't look a day old. Unfortunately I don't know where to buy one but I'm pretty sure a little googling would help.

    I recently purchased Ghost Recon: Advanced WarFighter. I dont know why i bought it... Point is: inside the box there was a little panphlet. This little panphlet described a set of these 3D goggles. They also have stereo headphones. These goggles supposively provide the user with a 360 degree look-around of the battlefield, have a resolution of 800x600, 16-bit color panel and have motion-trackers. So suppose you move your head left in real life, so does your character in the game... neat. The stereo headphones provide for a better "in-the-game" experience by simulating real-life sounds.... The idea sounds sweet. However, having experienced something called GamerFX (3D goggles made in 1999), i have HUGE doubts about this thing. The GamerFX was a waste of $199.
