    Yes I have this headset too and it is superb. It does make my ears sweat though but it's no big deal to me.

    The software says 9 hours but I have not fully drained it before. You could also plug in to charge while you play.

    I recommended it to a few people when I had a coupon for $30.00 off but I never got one.

    The huge ear caps cover your ears completely, they do block alot of noise (pretty much all when you are playing something), but it isnt those that have a mic to filter extraneous noises.

    I always heared that wireless and Bluetooth headphones were not near as good for gaming then a wired set. Is there any notable difference?

    I would not game with bluetooth headphones because I have had trouble in the past with just listening to music with them. I have both the logitech G930 and the Turtle Beach X41 and neither has given me any problem such as lag or distortion. I think the argument you present was true a few years ago but I think now technology has caught up as far as wireless is concerned. The same can be said about wireless gaming mice too!

    Well I guess it depends how you use them. The G930 is primarily designed for the pc while the X41 can be used with anything with an optical port or stereo port. The g930s do isolate sound a lot better and they also sound a lot better to me too. The X41s are good in their own right since they are so light and are pretty much plug and play when using them on the consoles.

    had saw some reviews saying that you cant really hear where your enemies are coming from because of the current drivers?

    Are they Huge or Tight and strain your ears like some of the reviewer said?
    i know its hard to get the right answer since all of our head's dimensions are of different sizes :p

    i had yet to own a G930, but would like more feedback on it. ;)

    Thanks Guys In advance~
