What kind of headphones do you game with?



Page 1 of 3 1 2 3 
So ive tried many different types of headphones through the years. Ive been both pc and console player and needed something that would double for both. At first, when i had just started, it was a SOCOM II headset for the PS2. Then it turned into a USB plug and play for PS2 and PC. Then i went separate directions, a usb plug and play for both. then it turned into a bluetooth headset, and a logitech g33 headset for pc.

So now, as I have grown with gaming on both platforms, I have also grown in the area of headphones. My latest addition to my headset family is a Astro A40 gaming headset. I LOVE this headset. works great for PC and Console gaming. I always had a 5.1 surround sound system for console gaming and can hear EVERYTHING, but once you strap yourself in with a 7.1 and play, its like night and day.

That Astro Headset looks beautiful, and I was going to get it, but then friends of mine who had gotten them for competitive play had some issues and I went with the cheaper (but still great quality), Tritton's.

OT: Tritton AX 720's

I have the alienware Tactx headphones, but I actually prefer these cheap, 10 dollar ear-buds I got awhile ago that are actually for a cellphone. They just sound better, clearer and louder *shrugs*

I actually do have a real life, I just don't remember what the password to it is...

for music i would say the ath-m50's. for gaming though, i think the g930 is pretty decent.

Brilliant for gaming, magnificent for music, mind-blowing for movies.

What defines you is how you react to disappointments.

I use earbuds as well, and always have. The only problem with them is that they always seem to break after about a year. I've gone through SO many pairs of earbuds over the past few years... I'm thinking about buying headphones, even though I don't really like them.

Gamecom Plantronics 367. A cheap headset, however the sound quality is decent with a nice bass. They are also VERY comfortable. The other day i had them on for 5-6h straight. My ears were only a little warm, thats all. And i wear glasses
