I remember playing GTAIV when it first came out but didn't finish the game. 4 years later I try to play the game again and I just couldn't do it. I don't have a taste for these games anymore. I mean I have played GTA 3 and Vice City.
 
I did play Sleeping Dogs though. It wasn't too bad.

Is sleeping dog good? I forgot I have that game and just laying there...
I want to start star ocean, but not really in mood to start a long rpg. Got Rayman origin and legends too, but also not in the mood.
btw, can the astro be used with pc? How do I connect it?

It was originally part of the True Crime series until Activision dropped it... hence Square Enix picking it up and changing the name...

I have to second Chico in saying that the PX100-II can get a bit bothersome on the ears. Having spent a few hours the past few days with it... it IS now starting to physically hurt my ears. Neither the KSC75 nor the KSC35 do this, so I'll have to say that the comfort CAN be better. I dunno how I feel about this, since I REALLY like the PX100-II in general, but comfort for me IS top priority... so I don't think I'll be keeping these. I will at least get enough experience with them to put up a review, since I do think more than not, these are an absolute solid pair of headphones. They deserve some spot light.

That being said, I don't think the majority of people will have an issue with them, but I'm really picky with comfort. Like REALLY.

Comfort was the main reason I sold them.  :\

Nothing breaks my heart here more than amazing sounding headphones that are ruined by lack of comfort. That's like puppies that cause cancer if you touch them...

LOL  
Or puppies that cause AIDS, depending on where you touch them.   :x
 
 
That's why I stay away from certain closed pleathery headphones.  Even if they sound good I don't want to know because it will be bittersweet when I never want them on my head.

Yeah man. The LCD2, D7000, ESP950, SR407, etc, etc.... man do they sound amazing... but can't be worn for too long without just making me rage at their comfort.

Now with those pad covers you and that other person posted.... I would give the Denons another go...

Me and my friend also agreed on the comfort issue. Its better to have a comfortable cans that i actually WANT to wear and for long period, than a superb sounding one but I hesitant to wear and only able to use for short time.
For the Denon D7000, i wished they have velour than pleather.
Starting sleeping dog now...

I wonder how the D7000 would sound with the LCD2 vegan pads. i really loved those pads. They really helped the LCD2's comfort, but unfortunately, they were still too heavy.

I have the same exact issue with my PX-100 ii's, it's the main thing that prevents me from using them more than I do, my ears physically hurt from them after wearing more than like an hour. I have only owned three headphones that satisfied my comfort as I am very picky about comfort, the MA900(had issues with the headband digging in my skull at first but the issue went away after a week), K240(pleather pads suck the first few weeks but once they break in they are comfy), and the K514 MKII(piece of crap, don't buy, no bass and very harsh). All the rest had some sort of issues such as causing the area around my ears to hurt, actual ears hurting from too small pad openings, excessive clamp, uncomfortable headband, etc.

My only problematic one is the at m50. Oh God the clamp, even with the stretching its still hurting my ear so much. Plus i'm wearing a glasses adds the level of discomfort, and the hot pleather pads.
Hifiman he400 with velour pads is fairly comfy, just wished its a bit lighter then i might not sold it for the x1.

The K240 are comfortable to you??
 
You must have tiny ears because those ear cups are shallow.
