IMHO worth every penny for gaming. Easy to use, easy to program, comfortable to use and more user friendly than the key board. It is not a replacement for your keyboard or mouse, it's an gaming keypad alternative to using the keyboard for gaming. In my book a "must have" for gaming. The other must have is a good surround sound head set like the G-35.
