The Saitek GH50 may look quite normal at first glance and even though it is very light, the headset packs quite a punch. As soon as the SRS is turned on, you may never want to go back to using those normal stereo variants. We try the GH50 with games, movies and music after taking a close look and let you know if it really fares as good as it sounds.

Software Argh, Windows 10. I hated Windows 7. I hate Windows 10 more. Give me back XP!!!
very good review, it sucks that it doesn't have a battery included, i never seem to have batteries around when i need them(especially AAA) so i would be pissed at that

Hmm, I'm not sure why they call it TruSurround, when it's only simulated 3d sound. I'd prefer a proper 5.1 surround headset such as the Zalman ZM-RS6F.
