Saw that newegg has the Creative Fatal1ty MKII Professional Series Gaming Headset for $100 – $25 coupon EMCYTZT75 – $50 rebate = $25 with free shipping. 24-hr deal, 8/4 only.

thats a pretty impressive discount. will these work with consoles?

This headset is not USB, so no you can't directly hook it up to your console. You could use them on your consoles in a number of different ways though.

Newegg put a sale on these at the beginning of the summer for $35 no rebate or redeem code, simply $35 shipped (instant $65 savings). I snagged a pair right away to replace my Plantronics headset.

To be real honest with you I don't think this headset is worth $50, maybe $30-40. And yes I own this headset.

My Mini Review From 5/12/10

Creative Gaming Headphones Newegg Shellshocker Deal

I don't know if its me or what but I had to adjust the bass through an equalizer for this headset. The bass on this headset is too strong, simply too much. I use foobar2000 for audio playback & thankfully tuning equalizer presets for music is a breeze ;~}

I should warn you with this headset for music - be prepared to fine tune this headset according to your music tastes.

They had them for $30 on another occasion after the 5/8 Shell Shocker, I wanted them both times but had no money in my PayPal account.

I don't mean to be a downer here either but I wouldn't buy them for more than $25.00 as a backup if my main broke. I've owned a pair, bought em from best buy and they lasted about a week.

In their defense they're not my only headset casualty.
