That isn't right at all, generalizations like that are just frankly stupid.

It is right. A dedicated desk microphone and dedicated headphones will stomp on any headsets anywhere. These are facts. If you're talking about GAYMURRR GEARRR, you're wrong about that as well. It's just marketing to take advantage of 13 year olds to spend extra money on peripherals that are unnecessary because it's cool to have a gaymen mice or a gaymen headset.

Or maybe they want you to think separate gear is better. And that's how they get you to spend more.

-
Tbh you don't really need expensive headphones in the first place, unless you are some sort of audiophile.
-
You are correct, which is why spending money on headsets is stupid.
-
What if you want surround sound?
-
Get some surround sound headphones? I don't understand.
-
Okay. Simulated surround sound.
-
I don't understand. A headset is a mic strapped to a pair of crappy headphones. Anything a headset can do, a good pair of headphones can do 1000x times better.
-
Okay. Now I know you are being an idiot
-
No, you're being stubborn. Ask anybody who isn't 15 years old whether a headphone/desk mic combo is better than a headset and they'll all tell you yes. I understand you're probably only 17 or younger but please take your ignorance elsewhere.
-
What? All you've been giving me is supposed 'facts' about headphones and microphones. There is nothing wrong with a mic attached to the headset. Why don't you give me an example?

Изменено (halo): 2/1/2014 2:10:37 AMIn gaming headsets, they use a mediocre microphone and attach it to mediocre headphones. You can get better quality headphones for cheaper and better quality mic that sits on your desk for cheaper. Go shop around, look stuff up. There aren't any news articles that say this, it's common sense. Go ahead and waste your money on HARDCORE UBER PRO MLG GAMING headsets though.

Tell me. How much do you know about PC gaming?

How much do you want to know?

Изменено (Greene): 2/1/2014 2:29:35 AMYou said that headsets are marketing gone wild. So you know at least some stuff. But what do you have against integrated mics? Many reviewers give them praise. I can see why you like separate hardware, but the way you say it is like you are the living incarnation of /r/pcmasterrace

Изменено (halo): 2/1/2014 4:02:44 AMI have nothing against anything. Integrated mics are simply lower quality. I'm not going to let people recommend lower quality products to OP when he is asking for recommendations. I don't like when people are wrong. Headsets are cool when gaming on a console, but for PC when you have the ability to use a dedicated mic and a dedicated headset, there is simply no question.
