I bought this not as a gaming set, but as a headset for my music while I cut the lawn. While the sound is very good and the headst very comfortable, I do have one problem with it. As I stated, I use it while running the lawn mower, and the problem is that it does not block outside noise very well. The music is getting drowned out by the mower. I was hoping that this would serve as well as the ear protection I use, with the added bonus of music. I'll try in the future to modify it and improve the noise reduction.
