    I have been looking at the G35 and G930s for awhile because I've read they were both great. I was about to buy the G35s but I just looked on Amazon and the G930s were listed for only 89.99 which is less than the G35s are. Just two days ago they were at 104.99 so if anyone has been looking at them now might be the time lol

    Bought mine, Sold mine
    Was not happy with the quality of the sound, the build quality, the software & drivers, and the gimmicky surround sound.

    Spend $100 for some Audio Technica M50's or something
    Amazon.com: Audio-Technica ATHM50S Professional Monitor Headphones: Electronics
    5* review average, no gimmicks, better sound quality, will last longer and be more durable, can work outside of PC only with your other devices & players.

    Yeah...well it just needs to work with my laptop since every ipod I touch dies ): but other than that lol...I was planning on buying the 540s actually since theyre wireless and I had read that the surround sound stuff is very hit or miss with people. But for 5 dollars more I decided why not. Originally I had looked at he Megalodons from Razer...after reading a few reviews I decided I wasn't going to chance it for 140 bucks -_-

    I've read alot of people say to buy some good headphones and a clip on mic but I'm really kind of a fan boy with the whole gaming accessories, and in all honesty for some reason I can barely tell the difference between good headphones and crap ones other than the comfort factor. On the other hand I can tell the difference when it comes to full size home or car speakers...
