These headphones are great on the budget! Pros: You can hear the game volume very well and players can hear you clearly. If you're one of those silent players, then that's good for you too! Cons: Cheaply made but I don't mind because you get what you paid for. Static noise is generated when I plug this into my TV's headphone jack. (No static noise when using the adapter, but there is a volume limit) Finally, it's difficult to hear other players as chat volume goes with game volume. (I'm currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and I'm having a hard time hearing other players) By the way, you'll save a few bucks if you buy it here with free shipping. $29.99 per apartment.
