SteelSeries makes gaming gear with longevity and versatility, from mice to keyboards to headsets. So I was more than happy to give their latest entry level headset, the Arctis 3 7.1 Surround Gaming Headset, a run through its paces. Does it meet up to the expectations of entry level gaming headsets

Very soft, comfortable, and looks great; I love the customization on the headband (more available sold separately); Software and sound is great for this price level; I don't think anything compares at this price point

The mic is way too sensitive to background noises; Even with software adjustments, people have complained they can hear background sounds being way too amplified

The SteelSeries Arctis 3 are a very competent gaming headset available for a surprisingly low price. If you're on a tight budget, this headset will likely give you the best bang-for-your-buck performance you can find.

I truly believe we are in the golden age of gaming. Video games have never been more intense, and pressure-filled. In-game maps are more massive than ever, enemies are increasingly ferocious and graphically games are more life-like than ever before.

Avoid these at all costs! Do not know if I received a Monday copy but I do not have much to say about these. Some of the shortcomings I discovered were: 1. The cable is on my shoulder, which makes it scratch and the sound goes right into the napkins.
