Quote from Rick_Dbut everyone else in the office will know you as "that guy with the ridiculous fucking headphones: avoid him, he probably wears neon spandex"
I am deeply concerned with the fashion opinions of my cats and dog. They're really critical little bastards. Thankfully my wife will still love me even if I do look like a robot from the planet Plastotron.
Also, got this last night.

Health does regenerate, but you can bandage to heal during heavy fire fights as well.
Honestly, the Eurogamer and IGN reviews best reflected my experience playing the campaign during focus testing a few months ago. All the fringe reviews on the positive and negative side are ridiculous and wildly off base.
The appearance of headphones are a huge deal to me since I spend all my time wearing them looking in a mirror.
Quote from BungloWere these worth the price? I was just looking at them because I need a nice headset with awesome sound quality but I'm not sure if I feel like dropping a decent amount of cash for a headset.
So far I like them a lot. It hasn't been a perfect experience (see below), but overall they're the best headphones I've ever owned (including the Medusa 5.1 headset they're replacing).
Pros:
- VERY comfortable, even with my big head and glasses
- It doesn't sound like you're listening to headphones when using them. I had to keep taking them off because I thought the sound was coming from my speakers (it wasn't)
- Sound quality is very crisp and clear
- The surround sound is pretty amazing for the most part - the rear surround doesn't truly sound like it's coming from behind me, but all other channels are spot on.
- USB dongle connection allows me to keep my normal speakers plugged in so I can stick to using headphones only for when I can't be blasting full volume throughout the house.
- The range on the headphones is amazing. My computer is on the opposite end of the house from my back patio, and if I stand by the back door, I can still pick up a signal and hear everything clear as day.
Cons:
- Software set up was a total PITA. My advice, skip installing the software from the CD and just download the latest Logitech gaming software. It didn't recognize the headphones the first time, but a quick uninstall/reinstall fixed it.
- Some games with heavy bass cause a crackling distortion at high volumes (I listen to these way too loudly sometimes). Crysis 2 is the worst offender in this category. I've tried several workarounds, but I think it may be wireless network interference - won't know for sure until I have CAT5 run through the house and can stop using wireless.
- If you don't switch headphones to stereo mode when listening to a stereo source like Youtube or a stereo MP3, there's a subtle reverb effect from the sound virtualization. This can be fixed simply by flipping the switch on the side of the headphones, but it's still annoying.
I imagine for the price tag, you're looking for a perfectly working as-is experience out of the box, which you won't get with these - they require tweaking due to poor software, but once you get them running and tweaked, they sound amazing.
Quote from BungloShould I stop being a Negative Nancy and drop the $60 for it?
Yes.
I can't say much, but I can assure you that this game is most definitely not easy. 
Busy weekend!

Quote from BungloI couldn't find any good deals for this, I'm not paying $60 (I don't even feel like paying $50).Between this, arkham city, BF3, and then skyrim all at $60 (excluding batman), how the hell am I supposed to stay in budget at these prices?!?
Stop wasting your money on less important things like bars and women.
Been slowly getting into the Gears 3 multiplayer. It's actually turning out to be pretty fun when playing the casual crowd since they don't all use the shotgun+dodge faceroll method.
Can I borrow it till then?

I've seen bricks that big. You usually only see them in an environment similar to that. Not defending this game, just sayin'.
Quote from Senturawait, people play bioware games for other things than the story? :dumbfounded:
Kinda like how they play Battlefield games for something other than multiplayer? 
I've been using dreamhost for like 5 years now and I love it, never had any issues with my hosting.
This right here.
Mass Effect 2 on insanity was much more manageable with the DLC weapons. Though it did get stupidly easy by the end of the game with the Super Nuke 6000 missile launcher.
ok, but how will you handle the sweat on the slippery glass surface?

":1e9ziaiz]I don't like glass cos It's always cold so It's uncomfortable to settle your elbows on.
The surface being cold is a bonus to me. I radiate so much heat I'm like a furnace.
Ended up going with this. Plenty of space, and surprisingly sturdy.

Tuesday night seems so far away! 
You both stole it from Dead Space, so what's the big deal?
