I was buying this mainly for the wireless. In some ways I still like the headset as I could anywhere in my 2000 sq ft house and still hear what was playing on my computer.

The wireless feature is truely awesome; This headset has decent sound, and awesome sound if you don't use a soundcard

This thing is not ideal for pc gamers who use soundcards; I was under the impression I would be able to use this with my asus essence stx, but I couldn't; This thing is full usb for pc gaming, which very dissappointing.

Decided to move on from my $20 sony headphones and get these ones. I was impressed with the quality of the sound they deliver especially since they're wireless. Haven't tested the full operating range but they get signal everywhere in my house.

compatible with all major gaming systems - wireless - battery life pretty good - cool voiceFX - bass is amazing - crisp sound overall - price

- none so far

If you're anything like us, then your gaming days are over and you now have to sneak in a quick blast of Gears 3 when the family has gone to bed. The trouble is, playing that late means you can't really turn up the volume and enjoy the visceral gunfire or high-pitched gear changes.

Sound; Comfortable; Well built

Still need wires for Xbox 360 setup; Large; quite expensive

By Engr. Jay Mendoza This product is actually a bundle of [Recon3d Sound Blaster] and [Tactic3D Omega Headset]. I did ask a lot from Creative before buying this particular "bundle".

Creative knows a thing or two about sound cards, but does its audio expertise extend to headphones? Creative has done it tough over the last few years, as on-board audio took over from discrete sound solutions, crushing the company's main form of income.

Wireless headphones using 2.4GHz RF; 50mm neodysium drivers; Excellent bass response; Warm overall tone

Mid-tones can crunch a little; No surround for console owners

Creative's various "Sound Blaster" products have long impressed me with their performance and ahead-of-the-curviness (hey, they did DVD-Audio back when almost no one did DVD-Audio, for example), but the majority of this SB gear has been designed for use on the PC, which inherently limits their claim...

Plays loud; with outstanding clarity and depth; Easy installation and configuration; Multifaceted THX TruStudio PRO audio processing suite

Limited control of features away from the computer

The Creative Labs Sound Blaster Tactic 3D Rage Wireless (note to company: can we have a shorter name next time, please?) is as good a headset as you could hope for with only 80 quid to spend.

Build quality; Wireless and 3D surround sound; Price

Lack of drama in its sound; 3D surround sound not precise; Dodgy Quick Start guide

Creative's Sound Blaster Tactic3D RAGE Wireless headset has almost as many appealing features as it does words in its name.

Creative Labs have done work in the headset market before, but have not really made a huge mark. All that could change today with the new Sound Blaster Tactic3D Rage USB model.

The Soundblaster Tactic 3D Rage is a surprisingly light and comfortable set of wired headphones. It is primarily designed to connect via a USB to Micro USB cable, but also comes with a headphone jack in case you want to use them with a phone or tablet.
