^ This. I've heard really good things about the Astro MixAmp x AD700 combo, albeit the AD700 doesn't have a mic.What mic do you use?
I also heard the Sennheiser PC360 is really nice, but it's $250. Pricey, but it's cheaper than the Beyerdynamic MMX300, which is $350 for the headset only (but reportedly sounds incredible).
PO, for your budget, I heard the Razer Carcharias are great. They're $80. [Link]
Reviews on the SteelSeries Siberia V2s are favorable as well. $87 from Amazon. [Link]
Oh, and if you're interested in that new Official PlayStation 7.1 Wireless Bluetooth Headset in the video a few posts back... I think Amazon had a preorder discount on them. About $65 from the $99. Not sure if the promo's done, though. But that's taking a risk with an unproven product.
EDIT: Btw, if you're looking for a wireless headset, just be sure the headset doesn't run on 2.4GHz, since that might cause interference with most of your household radio devices.
And, if you plan on purchasing a surround sound processor (Dolby Headphone/Pro Logic IIz) in the near future, you basically have two popular choices: the Astro Gaming MixAmp and the Turtle Beach EarForce DSS.
- The great thing with the MixAmp (Dolby Headphone) is that you can use any stereo headphones that have a compatible 3.5mm jack. But it costs $130 for the wired; $140 for the wireless... pretty steep. Plus you need an optical audio output to have 5.1/7.1 surround (MixAmp 5.8 - optical only; wired MixAmp - can accept a variety of inputs).
- The EarForce DSS (Pro Logic IIx) retails for around $89.99, but you can get it on Amazon for $70. Accepts Optical Audio Out only.
In other news... I just learned yesterday that Skullcandy recently acquired Astro Gaming for $10.8M. I hope that doesn't affect Astro for the worse.

Last time I seen him on here, he made up that bogus story about getting it crackin with these 2 girls, got called out, and posted porn instead and got banned. Son aint been on PSN for months either, he's definitely hiding in shame. I msged one of the chicks on Facebook for fun and she says she barely knows him at all... I know he's feelin all naked and ashamed with the way he got exposed.
TIG IS THE HOMIE. THAT GUY FUNNY.

i just bought this labtec lva 7330 which was hard as heck to find to do the this mod, you just use velcro or those poster stickers and it sticks solid then plug into the mixamp but it wont get here till mid september...i bought a clip on mic should get here next week to hold me over
for him to use the razers or the steelseries he will still need the dss or mixamp for voice chat cause they are pc headsets
for 95$ just get the sonys, but if you play on wifi you might have a problem with interference...only if you have a lot of 2.4ghz in the room you play...but if you live in a apt complex then pass

^ Oh. That's right. I didn't mention they both needed the MixAmp or the DSS. My bad. Same goes with the rest of the headsets that you mentioned.
Yeah. Most routers run on 2.4GHz. Then you have the cordless phone, the PS3 controllers, etc. Even the Turtle Beach PX5s have taken some flak for running at 2.4GHz. The wireless MixAmp 5.8 runs on 5.8 GHz. The only other wireless headset that I know of that runs on 5.8GHz are upcoming Tritton Warheads (which are XBOX360 exclusive).
How about the PX21s? Compatible with the PS3 out of the box. They are decent if they are working. And they're widely available -at least it's easier to get them replaced if they screw up if you're in the US. *shrugs*

just got a PS3... took advantage of the price drop. Anyone here played or recommend that DC online game? Looks pretty sick, but is paying a monthly subscription worth it?

Platinum'd Transformers.
Could have been a great game, but the control is a little shaky. Online was pretty fun.
Taking it back to get one more game before the deal ends. One week with Hunted: Demon's Forge and hopefully Two Worlds 2.
