Thumbs up Re: gaming headsets

hi
thanks i'll check them out they look just the thing
just 1 question the quality of the mic how good or bad is it.
i had an ms gamevoice headset before but wasn't too impressed, things should have moved on since then i hope.

Hi grizz, the mic is good Sennheiser is a top name and they have to live up to it "they don't make rubbish ", have a look around as it pays to shop about.
