    Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

    So I bought that Sony Wireless Gold headset. The price seemed really good and I had heard solid things about the official Sony headset for the PS3 back in my old Madden 12 league.

    I was worried, as while Amazon was shipping it I read reviews that were mixed. A couple 8s and 9s, but also quite a few 6s and 7s.

    After using it, and I admit, I do not have a lot of experience with headsets (I owned one Turtle Beach headset for my PS3 back in the day and it sounded fantastic but was not very comfortable and broke after a month) but I am pretty impressed and very happy. Extremely easy to use and set-up, and to me it sounds great. The chat problems that some reviews mention, and others don't, I wonder if people are wearing them backwards. There isn't any indication for this so it would be easy to confuse but the buttons should go on the left side, that side has the mic on the front. I think a lot of people might be wearing them with the mic behind their right ear which could be causing issues. I am very happy with the purchase, for 99 bucks it's a good deal. Sounds really good to me, the most comfortable headsets I have worn so far, by far. The app for sound mixing is cool too.

    So, I just wanted to say, that even though I recently traded in every launch game except Killzone (I got massive trade in value, paid off Infamous, the Show, picked up Tomb Raider, and put down some money for Elder Scrolls Online Imperial Edition because I liked the beta for PC) I do not regret my PS4 purchase at all. I have spent time with both consoles, I have ran games side by side with XBone, PS4, and my mid-range gaming PC all simultaneously, and I am impressed with the PS4. Glad I jumped in day one. System has had no issues (I do dust every day before I go to bed though) I get a lot of value out of the PS+ free games and the f2p games, been enjoying DCUO quite a bit, and I just, overall, prefer playing on it over my XBone and even in some cases over my PC. The controller is, IMO, the best controller ever. It is just SO comfortable. They hit a home run here. Cross platform games are beginning to show more and more the added power of the PS4 and I expect this trend to continue quite a bit.

    Can't wait to see this sytem evolve over the next 8 years

          Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

          I love random, weird titles. I always have mainly because they are something different at least. Compared to the amalgamous blob that big releases (save for a few studios) normally are.

          I've been trying out a few different titles.

          Warframe - usually f2p on an MMO means I dont play. This one is relatively un-intrusive and everything (save for special skins) can be had for free. It's really fun. The gameplay is somewhat reminiscent of Mass Effect. 4 person, third-person shoot everything that walks shooter.

          Onigiri - I can't understand a word in this game but I've made it to level 18 so far. I like that your weapons can get leveled up by using other drops. It's a bit buggy and filled with a ton of anime tropes (female characters have weird/little clothing, male has a mask and a scar on his face, oversized weapons, etc). The gameplay is similar to Phantasy Star Online. I don't even really know what you'd pay for in this one but I'm not worried about that since I can't read it. Graphics aren't great but the monster design is a breath of fresh air if nothing else. They're all pretty weird. Solid game, to me, if just because it's so different from releases we see in the US.

            Just a follow up: Gold Headset

            LOVE them...
            Used them on PS3/4 and PC. Really like the quality. After a much longer time with them they are just a comfy hour 3 as they are when you first put them on.
            The charge cable is pretty small BUT the longer cable that came with the PS4 to charge the controllers also works of course.

            Recommend these.

                Glad to hear this about the gold headsets since I'm interested in a pair of good headphones, but I've been reading mixed reviews.

                  I think I am as well, but next week.

                  Just to make sure, we talking the new one or the one that's been out a while and has the cracking problem?

                    The one I am talking about is the new one, that came out designed for the PS4.

                    Pretty sure it's just called "Sony Playstation Gold Headset"

                      I agree with ur review of the new headset i can assure you the chat problem is people wearing it the wrong way..

                      Because i did that to start and my friends could barely hear me.. so i looked inside and saw the L was on my right ear..

                      So i turned it around to were it the buttons were on my left ear and the problem was solved my friends can hear me loud and clear now..

                      People are wearing it wrong resulting in the audio issues..

                      No question this is a very good headset money well spent. .

                        I am surprised to see that know one has mentioned that the WWE app has been available to download since Thursday night on the PS4 & PS3.
