PC gamers rely on headphones to eliminate distracting noise around them, so they can concentrate on their game play and hear every nuance of the game audio. Stereo headphones with an integrated PC microphone are incompatible with the Xbox 360, so gamers are forced to choose between using standard headphones and talking online. Conventional Xbox communicator headsets cover one ear for chat, leaving only a single ear for hearing game audio from the speakers. The Ear Force X3 overcome this problem by pumping game audio AND online chat through high-fidelity headphones to deliver the privacy, clarity, and competitive edge of PC headphones on the Xbox 360 platform. They're also designed to enhance the Microsoft Xbox 360 gaming experience by enabling the user to independently control volume of amplified chat and game audio - a first for wireless headphones. Designed for premium sound, the X3s feature 40mm drivers in each ear cup and are powered by low distortion DC-coupled amplifiers for deep, rich bass sound. Engineered for long-gaming sessions, the headphones incorporate a soft, cushioned, adjustable headband, deep ear pads and tilting ear cups to fit the contours of the gamer's head. No matter if your priority is physical comfort, headset options or audio clarity, the Ear Force X3 wireless Xbox headphones will hold up to the test. Headset usable with other gaming systems (mic for Xbox 360 only)Customer Review: BE VERY CAUSIOS
When I frist got these head phones they where great. I got them for Christmas 2008 and they worked well...until February 2009. The mike according to my friends on live "sounded like I was mumbling every word" and when I switch back to my 15 dollar mike they could hear me better. Maybe it is just mine, maybe I broke it but this is a Major Issue for a set of 100 dollar headphones. I recommend them but if you buy them, keep your old mike.
Customer Review: Best. Headset. EVER!
Well... Let me start off with saying that I have been gaming my whole life, I have owned everything from PS2's to Xbox originals, to the latest Xbox 360. When the Xbox 360 launched it was created to be the leader in console gaming both for hardcore and casual gamers. I am a Hardcore gamer, I game A LOT! I know my way around when it comes to consoles, and I know my hardware and Accessories... So, I purchased this headset a couple months back, and from the date I purchased this I have not put it down! The Sound quality is amazing! and I really have not noticed a SINGLE problem with it! I will list some pros that I haven't seen posted on here thus far: Pros: - The Headsets Sound quality is amazing, I play a lot of shooter games (CoD4, Halo , BF-BC etc) and I have never been able to hear what I hear when I am wearing this Unit! The Things you hear are - rain, Footsteps, long distance firing, and much more - with the recent Music games that have started to dominate the video game market (rockband / Guitar Hero) I play in my living room and my family gets very annoyed to hear the "annoying" songs that I play in those games broadcast through the house and these headphones have completely eliminated that FOREVER!!!! - WIRELESS - I have used several Wireless headsets that cause "Fuzz" and "Distortion" but I have NO problem with these at all! :) - You can change anything, if the volume of the game is to loud you can turn it down, or if you need more chat volume you can turn that up, it is a very easy method right on the headphones themselves! - Overall I find NO real problem with these headsets... I love them to death, I tried to go back to a garbage MS mic after I got the Turtle Beach X3 just to see how different it was... and I could not stand it! These Headsets are by far the best I have ever used! and I have used a lot!!! Cons: - The only con that I find in this item is that they don't come with rechargeable batteries... (they come with batteries but not rechargeable ones) so I went to best but, and bought a 4pack of rechargeable batteries ($5.00) and everything from there on out has been perfect!!! Overall I would rate this Item with a 10/10! I have used it for awhile now, and have had no problems, and the quality is incredible! I always go by the saying "you get what you pay for" well that is the case here, I had 3 Microsoft Mics break on me last year alone, that's $60.00 a year, at that rate... so I invested in this and have had no problems for about 7-8months!!! I would suggest this item to anyone looking to get a good quality, superbly designed headset, and get the best bang for your buck!
When the October 4th 2005 X 05 events were going on in Amsterdam all in the gaming industry realized that the Microsoft will announce for the release of its Xbox 360 games in North America and Europe.
But to everyones surprise Microsoft didnt did so and that led to the confusion in the minds of many people.
However, the corporate vice president of Xbox marketing and publishing, Peter Moore told the masses that there are two hundred Xbox 360 games in development phase that are one of the best games ever designed. He also stated that they would organize the best launch lineup of Xbox 360 that has not been done ever in this industry. Peter Moore refused to declare the list of all the games that would be available for sale in November 22 during the launch of the Xbox 360. This launch is to be held in the United States.
As if this was not enough, one more press release by Microsoft titled Xbox 360 launch line-up announced has added to more confusion. Three first party games are listed in the press release under the heading of an impressive Christmas holiday portfolio. The games that are listed are Kameio Elements of Power, Perfect Dark Zero and Project Gotham Racing 3. The next catalogue of games under heading of the other great games announced or shown at X05 consists of games like Too Human, Crackdown, FIFA 06, Saints Row and many more. In the third category the games were included under the heading of the franchise titles that will make their debut on Xbox 360 that consists of games like Tom Clancys Splinter Cell 4, Superman Returns: The Videogame, Call of Duty 2 and many more such games.
The main confusion is that most of these games have 2006 release dates. Moreover some of the games that are announced would be impossible to be added into the Xbox 360 launch lineup that is opposite to the title indicated in press release.
To add to the confusion, when director of platform marketing for the Xbox 360, David Reid was asked about the available games during the launch then he stated that only fifteen to twenty Xbox 360 titles will be launched in November and the next halfdozen would be available next year. According to David Reid, only eight games would be available in November, namely, Need for Speed Most Wanted, FIFA 06: Road to FIFA World Cup, Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero, Kameo, Madden NFL 06, NBA Live 06 and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06. Remaining seven games that would be available in November will be announced by him in the next few weeks. He stated that those games are in the final stages of certification referring to the quality assurance process all games have to go through before they are available in the market. He also confirmed that if any game is unable to pass the certification then that game may not be available for sale in November Xbox 360 launch.
The main problem is that the decision to rush games is for the reason that the company wants to take the advantage of the holiday sales season. The other reason is that the gamer in todays world can analyze whether the game was rushed that may result in the destruction of the reputation of the game. Now there are only tow conditions, either the Xbox 360 games would be a great success or a big failure. All this is due to the excessive pre release publicity of Xbox 360.
Although the three games that Microsoft assures would be available on the release dates but when it comes to the remaining twelve titles all confusion prevails. It is thought that even if the Xbox 360 is spared the proposed PS3 would be under the same trap of questions.
The best way to know about the release of Xbox 360 is to wait and watch. Here we are in a state of confusion whereas on the other hand the Microsoft is fueling the market for the sale of its Xbox 360 games.
