4.0 out of 5 stars Taking you to the movies, 24 Jan 2007
By Mr. S. Hickie "Lord Tarquin" (Derby, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
When I first bought this, I was looking for something to replace my current microphone, which I use to talk to team-mates while I play online. They couldn't hear me a lot of the time, and when they could it was fuzzy.
So I looked around for a headset with a built in mic, and found this. I was mainly buying it for the high quality mic, not expecting to have sound quality better than my main speakers.
It was a dream to set up, I just had to plug it in and it ran out of the box, and it comes with adapters depending on whether you want to power the vibration using USB or using AAA batteries.
When I started playing Battlefield 2142, I was amazed by the realism it was giving me, I could hear everything around me at once, and tell exactly where gun-fire was coming from, not to mention the fantastic effects the vibration gives. Explosions are really brought to life, making you feel like you're in a movie.
It's also good for music, I've been hearing bits of my favorite songs I never even realised were there.
I've also been told by friends that they can hear me clearly, although I had to do a bit of fiddling with the sensitivity to get it the way I wanted it.

There are only a couple of down sides.
One is that it begins to be a bit uncomfortable after about an hours worth of gameplay, this might just be me, it would probably change depending on how you wear it and what shape your head is. Your ears get pretty warm after a while too, although I'm easily distracted from this by bullets flying past me in all directions.
It can feel a little strange at times, talking to people through the mic while not being able to hear yourself too well (it does a good job of blocking outside sound out), but that's pretty easy to get used to.
The last thing is that there's a bit of background noise, especially with vibration turned on, when the volume dial is put up high, but that's easily avoided by turning the volume up in whatever application you're using

All in all, I'd say it's a fine headset, well worth the money. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a bit of extra realism in their games, while being able to talk to people at the same time.

2.0 out of 5 stars maybe its just me but..., 10 May 2007
By R. Adams "Jakobite" (scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 
well i was looking forward to this headset coming..unfortunately it wasnt as good as i was hoping it would be..im a pc online gamer and should of known that the vibration effect would be the seller here..and it is...yes it gives you the sense that all hell is breaking loose around you..but what it doesn't do,is let you know in which direction your enemy is coming from..the headset makes you think there close or just behind you..but in fact there in the opposite direction..instead of knowing your foe is just about to get a bullet from you because you know where they are...your left bemused to find out there no one where near you..also gun battles between players sound as if there coming from out of the map...playing music with this headset isnt very good either..it just doesn't sound as crisp and clear..maybe its just me..but ive played online shooters for years now,and this headset will see you killed more often than not....but if you want a head splitting sense of war and a bit of fun..then this headset is for you!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as exciting as you might expect, 10 Aug 2007
By Creative Critic (London, England) - See all my reviews
Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 
As I already own a number of other Saitek products (Force Feedback steering wheels and pedals, X52 Flight Controller and Pedals) I thought I would give this a try - what a mistake!

In games the vibration effect is barely noticeable - the hassle of finding AAA batteries to run it (or a spare USB port) is not worthwile for the difference it makes.

In music, the result is slightly more pleasing - a test with some thumping dance music and you can notice an effect change when you toggle the vibration on or off - although the vibration is really not that bold, you could think of it as attaching a pair of Marshall speakers to your ears! That led to the major problem - I was quickly replacing the thumping music with a thumping headache..

Also, the earpieces are too tight for, say, a wider head - which left me with not only a headache but sweaty ears too - after just an half hour of play.

These aren't bad headphones, sound quality is good, bass is good, but the vibration will give you a headache and so it doesn't warrant buying them just for that, minor, effect.
