Far far too much money. Surely they should be £1500 absolute MAX. Current top tier ultawides should then also come down in price.

Are you kidding? The length of the conflict has nothing to do with how much content you could create. If you really wanted you could create an alternate timeline wherein the Falklands escalated into WW3, the cold war become hot :)

Battlefield Falklands - Great Britain vs Argentina. This would be a refreshing never before seen theatre with lots of potential. 1980s weaponry (and music!).

This! All day long. You can talk about the damage/threat to the gaming industry, real or imagined, all day long but it's pathetic compared to the ACTUAL threat to the climate. At a time when we should all be looking to reduce our consumption to help make renewables viable we instead have people...

No, £590 for this custom vega was from a fairly typical UK e-tailor.

£590 is very disappointing. Even the likes of Amazon has 1080s dipping into the sub £500 bracket. Wipes out a big chunk of the savings you'd make getting a freesync monitor.

Can't seem to find a Z35P in stock anywhere in the UK. Hopefully the X35 will be priced reasonably and have decent stock!

You are still comparing different products which are intended for different purposes. Now you are also accusing one manufacturer as being second class because they choose to make one type of product and not the other. There are plenty of headsets that are comparable to studio grade headphones...

I think the point is that people who are looking for this type of product do not want to sacrifice anything otherwise they would be looking at different products. Headphones are not an easy alternative. You then have to look at if your onboard audio is up to snuff, and it usually isn't. Then...

Horses for courses and each to their own. Show me a pair of headphones that are wireless, have a built in mic, don't require any other equipment to adjust settings such as EQ and include encoding techniques such as DTS or Dolby.

Unfortunately I'm in a position whereby I need to use closed-back headphones. I own a pair of dt-770s and a pair of ATH-900X. The soundstage on the 900x is really good considering it's closed but I actually game on a crappy pair of Corsair 1500s purely because I find Dolby Headphone to give much...

Again with comments like this: "Of course, turning the virtual surround sound on also has a heavy impact on the overall sound quality, and not in a good way. Overall, I can't think of a single reason why someone would use the Stealth 450 in surround rather than stereo mode." Just because...

First off, this is aimed more in general than at this article: Everyone's ears are different. Often people disregard this. I truly believe that there is a split between those who HRTF works for and those HRTF does not. As such, if you know that virtual surround sounds doesn't work for you then...

This is why we can't have nice things included in our full priced purchase.

Does it still contain Dolby Atmos? It was mentioned just after Christmas that it'll be in this patch but I haven't seen it stated since.
