    Fingerless Gloves

    Who uses them for gaming and do they help (especially in these cold winter nights)

    I was especially thinking about office on CSS, that snowman makes me freeze!

    I would find it hard to use normal gloves though. Are there any arguments to this.

    lol, I don't use any gloves, but if I were to use any I would use my biking gloves, as they keep my hands.. semi-warm, they are fingerless, and thin so I could type with them fine if I wanted.

    Well, if i am clenching my mouse then i can get cold (blood not getthing there?), and i have not got a P4 or an xbox360 so extra heating would be a waste of money.

    We need some thermal mice and keyboards. Or mabe specila HeXus gaming gloves!!!!!!!1

    Fingerless gloves are for bike riders and homeless people. If your hands are getting cold, you're probably holding your controller too high. Keep it near the waist.

    Here's an idea; Once you have finished a game on the hardest setting but wish there was a harder one (HL:2 for example) - try playing it with a pait of oven gloves on

    Fooking genius me. Do i win best idea of the month award?

    Maybe i could re-market oven gloves and a type of game Handicapping system. Yes, i'm going to be rich. nvening should get a small cut too. Maybe i will employ you as a consultant or tester. See you later suckers!

    I've tried it, and in terms of keeping your hands warm, it works just fine. Your fingers do feel colder than the rest of your hand, but that's not too surprising. On the other hand, holding a mouse with them on is, let's say, tricky. Maybe a rubber grip would help there, but either way, I probably wouldn't wear them again while playing something that requires a mouse (Games where you can use the keyboard for everything [NFS, etc.] are fine); typing and general computer use is fine though.
