PC gamers rely on headphones to eliminate distracting noise around them, so they can concentrate on their game play and hear every nuance of the game audio. Stereo headphones with an integrated PC microphone are incompatible with the Xbox 360, so gamers are forced to choose between using standard headphones and talking online. Conventional Xbox communicator headsets cover one ear for chat, leaving only a single ear for hearing game audio from the speakers. The Ear Force X3 overcome this problem by pumping game audio AND online chat through high-fidelity headphones to deliver the privacy, clarity, and competitive edge of PC headphones on the Xbox 360 platform. They're also designed to enhance the Microsoft Xbox 360 gaming experience by enabling the user to independently control volume of amplified chat and game audio - a first for wireless headphones. Designed for premium sound, the X3s feature 40mm drivers in each ear cup and are powered by low distortion DC-coupled amplifiers for deep, rich bass sound. Engineered for long-gaming sessions, the headphones incorporate a soft, cushioned, adjustable headband, deep ear pads and tilting ear cups to fit the contours of the gamer's head. No matter if your priority is physical comfort, headset options or audio clarity, the Ear Force X3 wireless Xbox headphones will hold up to the test. Headset usable with other gaming systems (mic for Xbox 360 only)
REVIEW
Almost Perfect I bought these headsets to be able to play on XBox Live and listen to TV/movies late at night and they're almost perfect. The sound is amazing and the reception area is great. I can almost walk out of the a 17' wide room before losing reception.
The only problem I have with this headset and why I didn't give it a 5 star review is that it does not have a charging stand. So you'll have to get rechargeable batteries and replace them every so often depending upon your use. I got about 20 hours of use out of the included AAA batteries before having to replace them.

REVIEW
Only one negative! Like everyone else is saying, these headphones are amazing! My wife asked if there was anyway she could stop hearing all the shooting going on in my favorite games (Halo 3, CoD4). I said sure, but it's not gonna be cheap! She didn't care so I took the plunge on these and couldn't be happier!
The feedback loop that plays your own voice back through the speakers is fantastic. Sound quality is just as spot on as my home theater system.
The only negative is the line of sight issue, but if you can't see your TV you probably don't need to hear anything either! A must buy in my opinion!

Turtle Beach Ear Force D2 - the next step in enjoying portable gaming on your Nintendo DS Lite. Hear every beep, blip and bark in stereo sound without disturbing others around you. The Ear Force D2 also features a high quality microphone for DS chat or interacting with your portable game characters.
REVIEW
Superb The mic on my DS Lite inexplicably broke. I have no idea why; I've never dropped it on anything hard; it just broke one day. Anyway, forthe next few months, I made due with Nintendo's absolutely horrible headset, until I got this set for my birthday in February. The microphone is absolutely great; works perfectly with all my mic games, and based on the playback in games like Star Fox Command, the audio quality is better. The quality of the sound from the headphones is also great. Overall, a great headset for the DS, and I recommend it over Nintendo's official headset to anyone in the market for one.

REVIEW
I can play this game for hours!!!!! This game was alot better than when I first bought it. Its not really considered a volleyball game with many things to do on the island. I have to admit that I really like the volleyball action, it can get intense after the first week of the two week vacation. Winning all that money at the end of a victory can be fun, going shopping when I'm not playing a match and buying presents to the other gals in the game. The option that I really liked the best was being able to play your own music tracks by copying them onto the XBOX, instead of listening to the same old pop music already in the game. I didn't really like the casino to much because I lose alot of my hard earned money. Other than that this game is a must for anybody even for females because of the girly things to do.

REVIEW
Wii Wireless Headphone So -So Pro:
Works Ok.
Cons:
Some noise.
Headphone is a bit to small for an adult head.
The entire product is built very cheaply.
Would have hurt the vendor to use a thicker gauge wire in the audio jacks?
Summer Heat Beach Volleyball delivers the excitement of beach volleyball and takes players for the hottest 2-on-2 action on the sand!
REVIEW
Not the greatest game ever made this game is fun if you like to have long rallys where they only end on an error. You hardy ever get a kill unless it is on easy, and even then, it is only because they dont even try for the ball. It's not a terrible game, but it is not the greatest.
Amazon.com Beach Spikers offers intense beach volleyball action for up to four players. The game showcases beautiful female athletes as they battle it out under the fierce summer sun. Gamers will have to cooperate and compete as they take control of bikini-clad beauties and go two-on-two at the net. Players must perfect their timing and polish their technique as they take on World Tour mode, but first they should use the tutorial mode to round out their skills. Other modes include arcade and exhibition.
REVIEW
Toss it around I'm not too fond of extreme sports games, but Beach Spikers offers a refreshing taste of fast-paced, arcade-style volleyball. ... That I liked. Of course, the single player mode is short-lived and, as you progress, somewhat frustrating because your partner is AI-controlled. But multiplayer is good, quality fun (2 vs 2). The games setup may seem a bit intimidating at first, and it requires good response / reflex, but the fluidity and quickness of the match makes this a good game to play with friends when shooters and racers have worn their welcome.
