It doesn't interest me very much, but I know that a few people here are into fighting games.

To get more use out of that increased XBL subscription.

So useless.

yay it has a swivel on it to raise it up. That is SOOOOO revolutionary that i can't even believe what i'm hearing!

<< maybe im a whore for these kinds of things.... But i think i might buy it JUST for the monochromatic colors. o.o....

<< I am currently using a red/black one because it looks badass.

They should spend less time making useless crap like this, and more time making left-speaker audio.

Left speaker audio? o.O..... Whats wrong with your left speaker?

I press Play, take out left ear piece and the audio is fine. Replace it and remove my right piece and I hear nothing.

Since it works with every other source of audio I can find, I attribute it to this video.
