Question 1

will i get orc must die 2 for free with this headset?

Accepted Answer

The headset came with a game code and instructions to DL the game, but it doesn't actually come with an installation CD. It does require activation via Steam.

Question 2

are these comfortable with glasses?

Accepted Answer

Yes I wear them with Glasses and have been through a few different headsets seeking comfort seeing that I have to wear glasses while gaming on the computer. I do wear the smallest glasses (smallest frames possible) to assist in comfort. I have this option as I wear reading glasses to play.

Question 3

My wife is hosting an internet radio show from home and we're looking for the best quality USB headset with microphone. Needs to be Mac compatible.This Plantronics one looks pretty good. What do you think? Other suggestions?

Accepted Answer

I've owned alot of headsets and this one hands down is the best ive had.  Spending more doesn't always mean getting more, I spent alot on other "namebrand" headsets that never delivered.  I can see this as being a very reliable headset from design alone.  The only thing I really think should be pointed out is the cord isn't really long or braided but the headset construction will last a long time and just simply sounds good.  Honestly, I haven't really gotten to test the mic out but ive heard no complaints saying anybody was having a problem when talking on skype.  Which is a really good indication that this is a pretty good headset.
The price is reasonable and it performs better than I expected, eventhough I have heard great things about people about Plantronics but have never blew the money to try it.  I'm sure it it was not just usb the quality would be even better for sure!  Although im beyond satisfied with the headset.  I would recommend it to friends. One other thing is during long gaming sessions the headphones don't make you sweat or anything of that sort they are a pleasure to wear for extended periods of time. 
Also worked easily with windows 8.1 if that's any help.

Question 4

How stiff are they/how comfortable over long-period of time use?

Accepted Answer

surprisingly the headphone are comfortable for kids and adults too. make sure you keep your volume low before you keep head phones on. this thing can deliver REALLY loud sounds :)

Question 5

Are these nicer sound quality than the Steelseries V2 headset? because that is the one I had but they were damage then I found thise on sale. Also do they fit a larger head?

Accepted Answer

I haven't used the steelseries V2, but I must say that this headset is of good quality and indeed fit a larger head, easily one that is 7in wide. I like them very much.

Question 6

Does this work with playstation and xbox?

Accepted Answer

This isn't a direct answer as I don't have this yet. It will likely only function as a microphone on either console (XBox is less likely to work without adapters). Also, according to a review the cord is pretty short, so unless you're cool with being right in front of your TV (or you have it on your desk to your monitor like I do) this is a poor choice.

With that said I can only say my past experiences with PS3 and XBox360. I've yet to lay eyes on a next-gen system as I don't like to get them during the first six months of release.

My experience with using PC headsets on a PS3 is that it will ONLY be a microphone. You usually need special adapters and headphones to get consoles to send audio to headphones. If that's your goal don't get these, just save the hassles and get SPECIFIC console headphones, especially if you're using XBox360, since every 360 headset I've seen that wasn't the microsoft one either plugs into the controller or uses an adapter to tap into the console audio out.

Hope this helps!
