[size=medium]I just read a review of the PC 360's and they had tested them with games, music and movies. It faired very well in the review and I now would really love to see them up against the Beyerdynamic MMX 300's. Price point is about the same. I got mine for $250 before this past holiday on a short special on Earphone Solutions. The week later they went back up to $300 on the same site. [/size]
[size=medium]You spoke before about not really using your mic that much as you like to focus on the game itself. I can understand that and the fact that there are a lot of very immature people on xbox live. I for one have found a very cool web site thats for older gamers of 25 and over only. They cater to everything from PS3, Xbox to PC. Ill send you the link of you want it. Having the mic built in or even separate is very important for me as I like to play at a competitive level (as much as I can) and communication is key, and I like the social aspect I get out of live gaming. I have a few friends that run the Astro Mixamp set up with HD650, 555 and the like with a custom mic set up.[/size]
[size=medium]In the end I think these could be the 2 top sets for a total package that could compared out there for gaming. If I can pic up the PC 360's anytime soon Ill write something up. I think the comparison is a little different when you mix in dedicated audiophile level phones without a mic. Someone earlier in the thread mentioned pricing around why maybe more high end headphone companies do or don't make gaming sets. I think if gaming is your hobby the $250 - $300 range is good for a set of phones with mic that have a level of performance you would expect from such companies.[/size]
