From manufacturing gaming surfaces to headphones, keyboards to selling security software, SteelSeries is responsible for contributing to what they call "professional gaming gear". With the hobby of gaming evolving into a profession, the demand for mousing surfaces has never been stronger. People from all ages, backgrounds, and cultures meet online to duke it out - whether it be a game like World of Warcraft, or Counter-Strike: Source. As a once-hardcore gamer - not necessarily a good one, but an addicted one, I know how it felt like to be on top - or somewhat near there, anyway. When I was given such a product to review, I threw my discipline out the door and reinstalled Counter-Strike: Source, and thus decided it was the best choice in order to give us an overall look at the SteelSeries SP. I know that mousepads are beneficial in everyday use as well, but here's an excuse I can't let go.

If someone were to ask you "Who's your favorite mousepad manufacturer?", what would you say? This list is rather short, and not many companies are known for their pads alone. SteelSeries is one of those companies that many PC enthusiasts will mention, because they keep delivering innovative products to a category that many think of as mundane: mousepads. Many polycarbonite or plastic mousepads are slick, and are dubbed "performance" pads because the mouse can slide all the way to Alberquerque with a single flick. Other pads offer "control", which usually means more friction between the pad and the mouse. A good cloth mousepad, such as the SteelSeries QcK Heavy is a great example of a mat offering a high degree of control. What about the user who wants a good degree of control AND high performance at the same time?

Gaming mice are all the rage, with the ability to crank up the accuracy to 4000DPI and beyond, it's no surprise that hardened PC users are looking to grab one. However, the surface they glide over is as important as the mouse itself, not just in the realm of accurate tracking but friction and movement. Today I have a SteelSeries mouse pad that follows in there hybrid range, this time with a fully hard top with soft rubber backing to grip your desk. Named the SP Pro Gaming mouse pad, lets see whether it lives up to its name?

The SteelSeries SP mouse mat is the latest hard plastic mat from SteelSeries that builds on the legacy of the S&S mouse pad. The SP features a lot of new innovations such as a macroscopic surface and a solid rubber base. In our testing we were amazed by the glide performance, accuracy and speed of this mousepad which is one of the best gaming surfaces on the market today.
