People trying to scalp every PS5 accessory they can, even the controllers for some reason Can't wait for this console shortage meme bubble to burst and they have to either break even or sell at a loss. It's already down significantly since the holidays --- Sometimes I say things and I'm not voice acting. <cite>AvantgardeAClue posted [p:951828089] in Damn, noth...

The sounds lacks a lot of bass too. Gave it a chance and returned it after a week, the cups are angled really badly so that they crush half of your ear. The Steelseries Arctis 7p is much much better, better than any Turtlebeach too. Highly recommend it, great comfort and sound too.

Eh I was surprised how much I liked wearing the Pulse headset, but it could definitely use some more bass Havent really played anything that shows off the 3D audio stuff Cold War uses it decently, its nothing amazing but its there I guess, works ok Other than that, not much Ive played uses it too well, but Ive heard that the Demons Souls remake uses the 3D audio the best so far.
