Well, my plantronics headset has served me well for just about 3-4 years. Long beyond my expectation. Anyway.. it's dying.

So I'm looking for a new gaming headset. And I was hoping some of you had some advice or suggestions as to what I should buy.

Looking for comfort (most important imo) & not too pricey.

Plantronic Gamecom 377. Good price and a good Headset.

I use fatal1ty ones, are really cheap and good enough for gaming.

If you preffer something more in the high rank, get the sennheisers pc350, but more expensive as well.

I have met 50% of your criteria...

Sennheiser PC350, mine are comfy as feck but might hurt your wallet :)

Looks like I'm in the lead here, gaise!

#14 DONT BUY THE 5H

Worst headset ever, for real. Mine lasted for about... 1 month, and WvR couldnt stand its shitty sound. The volume is daaaamn low for music, the light sounds like shots and so are too high and theres no way to hear the important sounds like footsteps.

Get the SteelSeries Siberia. Its exactly like the old Icemat product, and im still using them since a lot of years.

20 mattiiii 2010-01-14 04:30:56 CET

Siberias are the best for a reasonable amount.

21 Steve 2010-01-14 08:49:02 CET

if you want great sound world for hl games, get vivanco stereophones, they are great and cheap, but hard to find. Headsets breaks easily and usually sounds bad. i have siberias and 130€ senheisers now, but i dont get the fuzz about them. sound world is more 2d than 3d.

22 gh0st 2010-01-14 11:03:33 CET

I´ve used my 5H V2 for 3 years. It´s not bad. But the Siberia V2 is much better.

sennheiser pc 350

24 slusken 2010-01-21 20:33:05 CET

25 Hogan 2010-01-21 21:15:43 CET
