Today I review the Sennheiser GAME ONE Gaming Headset; an open back set of gaming headphones with that typical Sennheiser tone. You get a wide soundstage to help locate where sounds are coming from, and a relatively neutral tone. The microphone doesn’t sound amazing, but it does a good enough job for gaming.

Whats currently the best sound card?
I’d like a review of the the creative k3+
Sounds like a headset.
Will this work with Xbox one?
sounds like a telephone
what I would appreciate from headphones review is to say the following: this is how I felt after 1 hour of wearing them, after 3 hours, after 5 hours..maybe it’s just me who is comfort sensitive, I don’t know, it’s never covered by anyone. You can be a casual gamer 1-2 hours ever so often or hardcore 3-4 hours every other day, they might be awesome for a casual gamer, but get so uncomfortably hot for longer sessions which is a dealbreaker no matter how quality they are, don’t you agree?
Thumbnail look like youre an esport player on championship. XD
Nice review btw 🙂
I have the Game Zeros and love them for gaming. I’ve been using them non-stop for over 2 years on my XBox and really just enjoy them.
Can u suggest us a better headset alternative in your opinion? Maybe the SteelSeries Arctis Pro (cable)? Pls test it. Btw nice review as always.
Very bad sound. Earphone mic sounds better than this.
Applejack said? “How’d you like them apples” then you said? 2:02 “How do you like them apples”
Articulate-ability
Another con I didn’t hear you mention is the open back aspect of the headset. I’ll say this is a con because people around you will more easily hear what you are listening to as well as you’ll pick up surrounding audio. In those configurations I would prefer just using speakers than a headset. Overall a really good review. I’m looking forward to you review the Platronics Rig 800LX someday
Hello, what would be the best mic for streaming computer games for something about 90$?

If you review more gaming headsets, reviews on the GSP 300, GSP 500, and GSP 600 would be great!
What USB mic would you recommend for gaming/discord? Since these don’t seem up to snuff. Your recommended ones on your website are very expensive in the UK. (Mainly the Audio-Technica ones and the Samson Q2U which is 70 pounds) Do you know of any affordable ones in my region? MPM1000U and MPM2000U are affordable at £50 and £80 respectively but I’m unsure if they’re suitable for what I want?
Hey. Please help me with BOYA by-m1 to boya 35c adapter (or rode- vxlr) to behringer u-phoria um2 not working
how so you liike them apples, good movie
I’m severely disappointed you didn’t test it for mic’ing your guitar amp.
Whats the best microphone for recording deep voices and streaming?
Nice review man. These get more comfortable the more you use them.
What’s your motherboard? Sounds surprisingly decent.
Headphone sweaty ear syndrome is a killer!
I have owned these for about a year and I love them, they are far better than the turtle beach I owned. I use them for console playing. The negatives that comes to mind are, the mic picks up noises from quite a far distance away, friends can hear crickets from outside my house. Secondly the plastic over time gets squeaky and just noisy, it is noticeable with minimal head movement. Overall I have zero regrets about this purchase. Thank you for the review, just thought I would share my experience.
I recorded videos with the game zero mic but now i only use it as my primary headphones, baby bottle SL baby!!
The clamp will decrease over time, which happened with my headphone.
This headphone is based on the HD598/HD558, and I got the latter listed, and the audio quality is really good. The microphone of course is a different matter compared to dedicated ones, but surprisingly, the audio quality is quite decent. At least it’s a clear audio.
For my headphone, I have a corrected EQ that lifts the veil and makes everything more “flat”/balanced
Plz can u review ( the mxl 440 )
Its mxl and its really cheap
Good day Podcastage. I don’t know how to suggest a review but theres a curious audio interface mostly known simply as V8 audio interface. It’s a chargable adio interface that is compatible with phones and PCs and I think you will do the best job explaining it. Thank you very much!
Anything as good but costs less?
Out of curiosity. Did you try them on the xbox? I have been switching between headphone on the play anywhere titles between the xbox and pc. The sound is completely different between the 2.
You should review the MPOW EG3 and Purple Panda
You are no1 mic reviewer in this planet, i m a big fan of your reviews.
Awesome review. I’m going to pick these up for sure.
Your reviews are really high quality. Thank you!
Thank you for doing a headset mic review. Would be helpful if you can review or reccomend a great setup up comparison. Not all of us have a soundproof room and ambient sound rejection.
An all plastic build quality…
Is it full plastic or is there a metall headband
