bit-tech Review

"It’s discouraging to say the least, but the reality is that the Xxtreme version just isn’t as good as the original Warrior. Worse, the effort that has been put in to improve the design has only worsened the product, removing the portability and creating a second, useless half to the product

I suppose, if you were very much into MMORPGs, which typically have more complex interfaces, then the Xxtreme may be a little more appealing – but you’d have to overlook the fact that there are other keyboards out there targeted at the most popular MMOs specifically.

That said, the Xxtreme isn’t a bad keyboard – half of it is still really good. The only insurmountable problem is that the only half you’d really want to use is [available on its own. The Xxtreme version doesn’t add anything essential over the original and that’s where it falls down." - 24th January 2008
