Gaming Mousepad Reviews - Razer, ROCCAT, ZOWIE
BCCHardware, Driverheaven, and OCModShop have reviewed a few mousepads from Razer, ROCCAT, and ZOWIE.
Let's see what they had to say:
- BCCHardware: ZOWIE GEAR G-TF Mousepad - It's Large:
"If you are looking for a new mouse pad, definately throw this one into the ring of consideration. It offers durability, meaning no edge tearing, and no little threads strangling off the edges. Also, liquid resistant material is an added boon to extending its lifetime. With a rubber “grip” bottom of the G-TF, it is more difficult to move the pad easily when gaming in the groove. The large surface area may be an annoyance to some but in that case you should be looking elsewhere already. Crumbs and other microscopic particles get caught in between fibers very easily so watch out when eating. However with a $29.99 price tag it packs a pretty good deal in a box."

- Driverheaven: ROCCAT Sota Surface Review:
"The Sota gaming surface is a superb all-round surface although I question whether it is really worth £17 when you can purchase a decent cloth surface for around half the price. If you’re willing to fork out the extra money though, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed as it performs outstandingly with both optical and laser mice."

- OCModShop: Razer Sphex Gaming Mousepad Review:
"The mousepad definately works as advertised in the performance department. It is thin and lightweight, but doesn't like to be rolled up. The reusable adhesive seems to work well, but be forewarned that you should clean the surface with alcohol pads to extend its life. If you don't go to a lot of LAN parties and don't intend on taking the Sphex with you then it will be a semi-permanent addition to your desk.
Regardless of the cleaning issue, I dare you to find another high-performance mousepad for under $20. It is so thin that it is more like a textured area of your desk rather than a mousepad, which is something some gamers may prefer. Then again, some users are accustomed to a little cushioning, so try it out and see how you like it. It is rather inexpensive, so you can show up to your next LAN with a genuine Razer mousepad without the deep pockets."

Mousepads, much like mice, really come down to personal preference and you really have to do your research to find the one that's right for you.
