Darkened and Lookin's Headset Guide - Comments Welcome

wow......




those things are smoother than a baby's ironed scrotum......




I like.......




I like a lot......

I've already added that to my b-day list. I've been wanting another headset to use out in the living room, so that I don't have to turn the volume down to nearly muted levels.

Can't wait to try them out.

let me know what you think of them.. I still have 2 complete px21 and one rigged set so I should be good for awhile. Brock just got some Tritons too Dark. He's loving them from what it seems.

I like my shitty bluetooth mic.

I don't like you shitty bluetooth mic... It hurts my ears... lol.. Bluetooths without noise canceling suck ass.. I had a few.

It seems the bluetooth guys are alway much louder than the headset guys for some reason. So it is hard to keep my volume adjusted to where I can bear the bluetooth guys and barely hear the headset guys.??

I played again with skunk last night. His bluetooth SUCKS.. or it maybe the fact that he has his TV volume on fucking blow your ears out.

If these headphone are wireless there not gonna be foe me. I have a hard time keeping 2 controlers charged let alone a headset. The wireed headset work well for me.

Gnu can back me up he use my headset,

Bluetooth is useles... Always have echo because people still have TV up. I HATE echo!!

Got a pair of Tritton ax 180 only £39. And have to say they work a treat, seperate game/voice volume etc. ps3/Xbox compatible etc.

Agreed, I f'ing love my Trittons!!

Nothing better than being able to determine the direction a gun shot came from or being able to hear people sneaking up on you. Only issue I have is that I've only got them setup on one system.

Ram - You should look into the Energizer PS3 controller charging dock. You can charge two controllers, plus it's got two additional USB ports for charging anything else that uses a USB cord for charging.

I'll check that out Dark.

Thanks

Uh, Tre0 bluetooth headset. Works wonders...just saying'. Haha.

Two Things:

Are there chargers you can use from a plug? Instead of having to have the PS3 on?

Speaking of equipment, I got the Kontrol FPS Freeks earlier this week. Website:

Im still undecided on them, anybody else use them? Opinions?...

hehe.. I saw them dooley... Seemed like a gimic to me.. Let me know how they work out.. if you notice any considerable change...

Dooley - Yeah, they plug into the wall, so the PS3 does not have to be on.

I've seen those before, and have always wondered if they were worth considering. Let us know what you think.

If we need a test dummie for that wireless pair lookin posted, I'm your man.. I am so done with TB. My left earphone on my TB's stopped working again last night.. This is the 4th pair... Fluck TB..


I think it was sometime in September that wireless pair comes out.

My first impressions of the Kontrol Freeks are good. I play on sensitivity of 7 so that may be better/worse than lower sensitivity I don't know...

The only problem is sprinting... Keeping L3 down is a little hard but I'm getting used to it now.

It may be the same for knifing but I play tactical so that doesn't matter as much.

I can't play without them now! It feels strange without them. Would love to know other people's impressions when/if they get them....

Heevee: actually your bluetooth is better than most...

Rammy: they are out Sep 6th, i'll be waiting to hear peoples comments...i dont know if i can wait till my Bday in Dec to get em....uggg

Dark: yes if you had TWO pairs of trittions I'd have to slap you

Dooley: ya ive seen em, and the results they promise are fantastic, but i have 3 controllers so I'd need 3 pairs, i also heard they break easily, keep us posted on how long they last.

Skunk: you need a good headset more than anyone else in the clan right now..lol

BTW...my son bought me a 4 port 'controller charger' back when i got my ps3, it IS SWEET...not only does it keep all my controllers charged up, BUT it also keeps em organized (wife loves that) Best accessory i have seen in a while...HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I think Skunk has more problems on his plate than a headset with the baby coming...

Suppose it would block out the baby crying!!

EXACTLY...

da woman says "ohhhh skunk come make love to me i'm so horney!!!"

he hears "REVIVE LOOKIN!!!"

da woman says "uhhh skunk my period is late"

he hears "LOOKIN NEEDS A REVIVE!!"

da woman says "Skunk I'm about to have da baby!"

he hears "LOOKIN NEEDS BACKUP ON 'A'!!!"

if he only had the headphones...he would have missed the first statment...and no baby to worry about...see...woulda saved him a LOT of trouble...

ROFL... good point Lookin...

JOKER GOT PX21's!!!!!! He is clear as all get out now... Congrats man.. You sound a ton different to than what you did on your bluetooth. Great to have you back playing with the BO teams...

Maybe it's cus I don't play often enough anymore, but I had to lower my sensitivy down to 3 from 6 or 7. Anything higher than that and I can't hit shizzle, and I am constantly running into walls and door jambs. I could only imagine what I must look like to other players that are nearby when I'm running into shit. 3 kinda sucks, too, cus now I can't rotate fast enough to shoot anyone running past me.

I feel ya Dark.. Its pretty much all about your comfort level if you ask me. My sensitivity is 4 and I'm comfortable there.. so I don't mess with it. Alexx plays on 10.... Screw that... I can't do it..

well, i force myself to play 5, then i try to move up 1 per month, however i think 5-6 is my best balance between speed and accuracy...also i dont use "aim assist" which im told makes the game much easier...but i like to do it my self..

i see the guy,
i take careful aim
i pull the trigger
and he guns me down cuz he has aim assist...

HAHA take off aim assist THEN compare your KDR to Lookin

BUT BACK ON SUBJECT...
i saw the headphones on the PSN store...

ANYBODY GOT EM?

reviews people...i dont care if they cost $100...buy them people! and post some reviews...then you can just throw them away...

Pretty sure Eyesik got them yesterday.. He seems to love them. I'm gonna get the wifey to pick up a pair if walmart has them

early review:

ok, well first they have a master volume, then a balance switch, the balance switch can either lean to chat volume or game volume, i have been told it is hard to find a good mid-point

next they are ALL USB, no connection to the audio output of the PS3..wow! how did they do that? I was told the ps3 could NOT output game audio through the usb, just chat...well, cool anyway!

Eyzik say they hold a charge for about 8 hours, and can be recharged while in use.

Rammy's voice is about 1 octive higher when using them, but his voice is still clear. however i detected more 'background' noise than with the TB's

Eyzik sounds exactly the same as he did with his bluetooth, however i think he was using a 'higher' end blutooth headset...

weight seems to be about the same as the TB's

Ram says just getting rid of the cord give these an A+ rating for comfort...

also noted that the ear 'pads' are larger and softer...

Comments? Rammy?

u got a link to these?

You covered it all Lookin.... I do like them.. Alot.. Comfy. Durability will be the ultimate test. Can they handle 7 hours a day every day of RaMRoD.. Not many can.. we will see. I do believe I was on my 6th pair of px21's and was getting tired of them, the px21s are poorly built. I have had in all 2 sey where the rotater earpiece has broke. 5 set where the right earphones quite working..

My fingers are crossed that the PS H/S will last. They seem super well built and thought through. I loveing them.

here the link dooley:

Sweet! I'm lookin forward to getting a pair now for sure. To bad I'll probably have to wait until my b-day in October, though.

I'm with you Lookin. Not sure how they got the game sounds to output through the USB, but they did mention that movies will not output to these headsets, at least not BluRay. Maybe they updated the firmware to allow the game audio to output to the USB, along with the other outputs?

Pretty sure you could Dark. They supposly work with PC computers as well??
