Not really, just as a moument to how absurd forums are in general. I actually like this forum, expect for the trolling and off topic religious discussion.

psst Its a joke. I'm not serious, I'm laughing at the fact that people use an a game forum to discuss religion and then see fit to engage in heated debates over mass producted living room gaming computers as if the fact that a 360 or PS3's "better" graphics was a reflection on their worth.

Having just switched over to p.c for good I can say that 1, its far better experience than console provided and 2, I dont really mind the ports. I'm playing resident evil 4 with my 360 controller for p.c and having a blast, then I might switch it up with some morrowind/oblivion, pyschonauts (another great port). As long as a port runs well and wasnt an awful game to begin with then its fine by me. I dont know, maybe I m a console computer gamer :shock:. LOL

For under $25 please direct yourself away from those sony offerings and toward a pair of koss ksc75s. They are clip. attractive looking and blow the ipod earphones away. They are available at your local ratshack for the price of $25 and online for about $20. The ones at radioshack also offer a volume silder.

 

I know my headphones, I am the past owner of one very overpriced pair of bose triports and current owner of a pair of sennheiser hd 595s ($150 on overstock) and hd 280s ($50 on ebay). Both are far better than anything bose can come up with at this time. The previous poster is mistaken when saying the "bose is teh uber!!"
