Hardware Heaven just posted an absolutely glowing review of Sennheiser's much anticipated (by me, at least) addition to their G4ME lineup, this morning. Now, mind you, they're used to dealing with your typical gaming headsets, so the oozing enthusiasm is to be taken with a grain of salt, but they do have thorough unboxing photos.
As for my impressions of said photos, blegh! Couldn't they have used an open-back version of the PC 350's frame? I mean, that one looked great, and it was about as portable as full-size, boom-mic-toting headsets come. This one, though, looks very...unremarkable. There's nothing other than the mic to distinguish it from every one else's designs. The sound might be a bit more pleasing, and the open design might help with the "out-of-head" imaging, but it seems to be missing almost all of the "sexiness" of the PC 350.
