I'm planning on buying a headset w/ mic for playing games online, but, I can't find any reviews. Anyone got any advice or anything I should look at? Any tips are much appreciated, heres a couple ones I was looking at on NewEgg.

Yeah I have the PC-150s and they work great. If you look they have a better frequency response then both of those headsets. www.ecost.com has good prices but bad ratings. But they have the pc-150s for $32 before shipping. Also I bought mine at amazon.com from one of the trusted sellers or whatever those other people are. They were only $38 and I got 2 day shipping.

Go with the pc150s for a headset with a mic. I would get mine from ecost like Schneider said, only problem is they are often out of stock. They just came in with some other sennheiser headphones that I ordered, so I'd check now and see if they are in. If not, you may have to wait 1-2 weeks.

If you plan to do a lot of gaming/useage, though, I would recommend a desktop mic and a seperate pair of nice headphones. I got myself some Sennheiser HD500s (just ordered hd515s) with a logitech desktop mic and I love it. Sounds great, but most importantly it's comfortable for a LONG time.
