    Rate the video games you're currently playing

    Angry birds (android)- 9/10 Abduction World Attack (android)- 8.5/10 Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2- 7/10. Liked the first version better due to more RPG elements Clive Barker's Jericho- 5/10. Huge potential but messed up implementation

    What book are you reading right now?

    you really should give it a try. it's not quite as fast or brutal as the NA series, but it has excellent character development and a very good storyline

    Bass headphones out of AKG81DJ,SONY XB 500,SONY XB700,GRADO 60I and SENNHEISER HD 212(Please help)

    I think what RPGWizard means is that to get the best out of the XB500, you would need a good software EQ. like he mentioned in his earlier post, the XB500 is geared towards the lower end of the frequencies (bass) which can result in muffled vocals and not very good overall clarity. think someone...
