Microsoft Sidewinder X8 Reviewed by New Enthusiast

From New Enthusiast’s review: "When Microsoft resurrected its Sidewinder brand, it followed the usual path of differentiation from its competitors. Key among this was the inclusion of vertically-, rather than horizontally-arranged thumb buttons. This is perhaps the most wonderfully evolved feature of the X8, which has forgone the awkward round buttons and adopted a much more ergonomic design."
