I'm watching the new episodes of Bluey and one story is presented mostly through imaginative drawings between the parents and kids. It culminates in a scene where the mum has to say goodbye to the horse she drew and for most people it would be emotional as the horse symbolises the character's own mum who died when she was young.

But I teared up because it reminded me of something else...

This is my review of the X3 from Attack Shark. I came across this mouse shopping on Amazon by searching "3395 Gaming Mouse". I took a chance and I paid it for $39.17 and received it the same day.

Specs

Sensor: PAW3395

Size: 118.5*61*39.7 mm

Weight: 49±3grams (my copy weighted in at 54g on my scale)

Polling Rate: 125Hz-1000Hz.

Main Click Switches: Kailh Black Mamba Micro-Motion Switches, 80 Million Click

Scroll Wheel: TTC ENCODER

Connectivity: 2.4Ghz Wireless/Bluetooth/USB-C Wired

Battery Life According to the item description: Up to 200Hrs

Build Quality: My first impression of the X3 was, for a peripheral that cost less than a sushi dinner for one, this thing is built fairly well. If I squeeze the heck out of it, there is no creaking or popping. When I shake it, there is a very slight rattle of the scroll wheel, but nothing that you would feel in game (there is no rattle at all on my lavender copy). The bottom of the mouse doesn't flex when I push on it. The clicks feel nice and snappy. They are a little heavier than I would like, but that is my personal preference. There really isn't much pre/post travel on M1 or M2. I enjoy the scroll wheel quite a bit, it has some really nice defined steps and isn't too loud or scratchy. Mouse 3 and 4 feel nice with some post travel. The weight balance seems to be okay, If anything I would say it is potentially a bit back heavy. That may be due to battery placement inside the shell.

Performance: I had no issues with sensor tracking and did not experience any spin out. The polling rate seemed to be stable, and I did not feel any stutter or jitteriness. My main shooters are CS2 and Overwatch 2. I felt I performed well, and the shape really grew on me. The shape seems to pretty much be the Ajazz Aj199 and doing a little searching around Amazon, Attack Shark might even be a sub-brand of Ajazz(?) I don't know that exactly, I could be wrong. I also used the mouse to play Dota 2 and the X3 will now be my main mouse for that particular game moving forward. I use a relaxed claw style grip and have baby hands (17cm x 10cm). I never dealt with cramping or discomfort. Battery life is pretty dang good! It holds are charge for about 10-12 days with about 5-6 hours of use a day. Overall, I had no real issues with the mouse in game. The software is pretty basic, but important to download so you can update the firmware. This will allow you to change the debounce timing.

Overall Thoughts: My overall thoughts about the X3 are that it is a pretty decent little mouse if you are low on funds. Is it anything that shakes up the market or adds something we haven't already seen? Not at all. Is it worth $40? I would say it 100% is. It will be in my rotation moving forward, and I am hoping its durability stands up with the test of time.

Edit: I now have two copies of this mouse and the first one (in white) is still going strong. My Lavender one feels even better build wise. Huge Fan of the Attack Shark X3

Watching my father play Gotham Knights is wild so have his best moments

Me, seeing the kids gathered at Bruce’s grave: Why are they all wearing their disguises

Father, switching the camera to Red Hood: At least you can’t see his face; the rest are like ‘Oooh I got a mask’

[Chooses Red Hood as starting character]

———

Father: [runs over a civilian]

Me: Dude

Father: Collateral damage.

———

[jumps down on a police officer] “…wait. These guys aren’t enemies-”

———

“Oh, you can press Q for other things. I thought it was only for, yknow.” [makes a gun gesture]

———

Mission: “Try to be quiet.”

Father: [Goes in guns ablazing]

———

Me, watching Father struggle with the investigation part of the game but excel at beating people up: oh my god the server was right you are just like Red Hood [gets bonked by Father]

———

“I wonder if we can die from fall damage.” [jumps off a building, Red Hood lands on another roof in a forward roll, taking no damage] “Nope I am superior martial artist acrobat-”

———

“I am naming my bike Bikey the Bike. He’s a great bike, I throw it away, crash it, and then call it back good as new.”

Michael as a dad part two

And the boys with the baby while Crystal is away, probably panicking over a dirty diaper or something.

Bonus points for this one because you know Luke would totally quiff baby clifford's hair and Michael would be giving her punk hair.

#i'm emotional #But I'm DYING laughing #I cannot wait to see photos of Michael with his baby girl #And see the boys with her too #It'll break the adorable scale FOR SURE #baby clifford #baby girl clifford #girl dad #michael clifford #michael 5sos #5sos #5 seconds of summer #luke hemmings #calum hood #ashton irwin #disney #gamer dad

The Beginning

This space is intended, really, for me. However, if you find it, please know this is a documented thought experiment and something I have talked to one of my best friends about. It is an attempt to understand my own enjoyment of video games and how fathers my age view and enjoy video games. The success of this site and this content is not the end game. I am going to be journaling in this space as I play through some of my favorite video games of all time. This experiment, as I am calling, is very organic. I know of one or two titles I will be playing through and have thought only that far.

It is my intention to add merit to enjoying a form of entertainment that has evolved tremendously over the course of my lifetime. I believe myself to be an academic of sorts and let’s be honest, the idea of executing an experiment focused on video games is something that piques my scholarly side, my gamer side, and through writing and hopefully some video editing, my creative side.

There are currently no sponsors for this experiment , no deadlines, and no grand expectations. I want to find out what it is about gaming and certain games, in particular, that have affected my life and have made gaming my number one form of entertainment.

For background, I am a husband, father of two beautiful daughters, and a lighting/performance engineer. That last title is something my company has developed for me. I went to college for Music Education and then obtained a Masters degree in Theatre.

Enough with the formalities, I want to get to the goods. I began playing video games at the age of five when Santa brought my a Nintendo Entertainment System on Christmas. Now, at the time, the system was definitely for my father who was the ripe old age of 24. A kid with kids having an exciting buy video games. Fast forward quickly almost 35 years and I too now buy my five year old video games so she, I mean I, I mean we can play together. Along side the NES, I was blessed to add an original GameBoy some years later. From there I owned a Sega Genesis, bought my very own PlayStation (lots of yards were mowed to dang that bad boy), a PlayStation 2, an XBOX, a PlayStation 3, an XBOX 360, an XBOX one, and a PlayStation 4, before finding my sweet spot with a Nintendo Switch, an XBOX Series S, and yes even gaming’s master race, the PC. Over the past three years, my switch has seen the most play. The convenience of being able to play on the big screen and then take the game with me with little to no stops cannot be beat. Also, as my family has grown, the ability to stop most games and turn them back on when I have a minute is amazing. Again, no sponsorship here, but the Switch has been the most clutch during the period of diapers and bottles for our family.

I digress. The point is, I have played a lot of games across a lot of platform forms and there have been a select few that have transcended the rest. The first two games I want to run through this experiment are World of Warcraft and Skyrim. In the next post I will lay out my World of Warcraft data collection, goals, and my history with the game.
