There’s no doubt about it--Mad Catz’s new Cyborg R.A.T. gaming mice are nifty bits of eye candy--if you can’t pwn your competition, you can take solace in looking way cooler than then do.

These new R.A.T.s look a bit like something out of Battlestar Galactica. They are sleek and black, and at the high end allow for complete optimization for “the key points of contact between the gamer’s hand and the mouse.” You may not aim your weapon any better, but at least you’ll die with a comfortable grip on your mouse.

There are four versions of the Cyborg R.A.T. available. They range from the 3200 dpi laser, USB powered Cyborg R.A.T. 3, with a MSRP of $49.99, to the 5600 dpi laser, fully adjustable, programmable, and wireless (complete with rechargeable batteries), Cyborg R.A.T. 9, with an MSRP of $129.99.

Mad Catz says these Cyborg R.A.T.s will be available this spring.
