Gaming headsets are almost a dime a dozen at this point, and Turtle Beach and Astro would appear to dominate the market, but that’s only because those are the two companies you hear that pretty much hang their hat on headsets. While not discounting Astro’s quality products, there are plenty of other high quality headsets on the market that rival or beat Astro’s...

I have a long history with GUNNAR Optiks’ gaming glasses. I own and frequently use both the Vinyl for extensive computer time and the PPK while gaming. To date, I’m still not 100% positive if all of the promised features work for everyone, but my eyes certainly thank them. However, my wallet didn’t. This is where NoScope enters the fray. With...

I almost can’t believe I’ve gone my...

I was tired of replacing my headset every other month, so I decided to actually invest in a headset this time, opposed to my apathetic attitude when shopping in the past. After a couple days of browsing and research, I decided the Plantronics GameCon 720 just might be the headset for me. Then after just a couple hours with the headset, I found myself torn...
