5.0 out of 5 stars Great for MMOs and RTS games; maybe not for shooters?, November 7, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Belkin Nostromo Speedpad n52 (Personal Computers)
[ EDIT: I revised this review 12-17-03. See below for additions. ]

The Belkin n52 is the successor to the n50 Speedpad. Like the n50, the n52 is a mixed bag of plusses and minuses. Belkin has marketed the n52 as the n50 "remodeled by gamer feedback," with added buttons and functionality. They've also said that it'll give you "Faster and More Intuitive Frags!" or some other market-eze. I had wanted the original n50 for quite a while to help me out when playing MMOs and RPGs (AO, DAOC, NWN) and shooters (NOLF, Deus Ex). When I finally decided to buy one, I heard that Belkin was shortly releasing the improved n52. So I grabbed one, and here's the scoop.

Installing this thing was a snap, and using the profile software is also amazingly easy. In only a few minutes of use I was making my own custom profiles. Macros are easy to write. The profile software has a few bugs in it, which I won't get into here. Hopefully Belkin will fix this stuff in the next few weeks. The bugs I describe are... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great controller - once you learn how to move the handrest!, March 18, 2004

This review is from: Belkin Nostromo Speedpad n52 (Personal Computers)
The reviews on here and elsewhere mention that you should give the handrest a "good yank" to adjust it. Well, I yanked and yanked, and it didn't budge... until I finally figured out that it doesn't slide back and forth! It lifts upward, off the unit! Lift it up to remove it. Then, you'll see two sets of holes - a set closer in to the keys and a set farther away from the keys. So, the hand rest has two settings. And, you can just keep it removed if you don't like it.

I figured that if I can have this much problem trying to slide the hand rest out instead of lifting it up, then others might be having the problem too. Instructions are nowhere to be found on here, on the Belkin Web site, or in the boxed instructions.

Unlike the other reviews, the keys on my unit are quite flexible... the stiffness is very minor. The unit is quite responsive. Plus, it seems to be very solidly built. The rubberized pad on the underside of the unit keeps it from sliding around too much on my... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Photoshop Accessory, January 26, 2006
By 
Richard Drdul (Vancouver, BC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Belkin Nostromo Speedpad n52 (Personal Computers)
I haven't played a computer game in 25 years (really!), but I love this game pad nevertheless. I use it with Photoshop. I wanted to be able to keep my right hand on the mouse, as it was slowing me down moving my hand between the keyboard and the mouse all the time.

I have programmed the n52 Speedpad with a combination of single keys (such as Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Del, +, - and the left and right square brackets) and multiple key combinations (corresponding with frequently-used Photoshop keyboard shortcuts). Rarely do I need to use the keyboard any more - just to enter file names and rename layers.

The n52 Speedpad is a great Photoshop accessory. I can work faster and more comfortably. It takes up very little desk space, doesn't cost much, and works exactly as advertised. Highly recommended!
