Next Gen Gaming Headset How do You Choose?

Hey guys, welcome back to the podcast today. So I just want to talk about headsets and like, how did they do they really make a difference? And I think that's a good, a good question to ask yourself, like, do you really need a headset to play competitive? I think you do. And the reason I say that is you want to be able to have a 7.1 surround sound system headset that can let you hear the footsteps of enemies while they come at you on the gaming world in the competitive space. And that's going to kind of give you that extra advantage. So if you're playing someone who maybe doesn't have that, and then maybe have just a two speaker system, they're going to feel a lot less ability to be able to take on what they need to take on. So if you're able to hear someone walk into a room, you're gonna get the jump on them, basically. And that's going to help you out from a competitive perspective. So just be kind of aware that when you're playing Call of Duty, and that will help you out. Now, if you have a headset, that is a piece of crap, that doesn't work as one speaker, you're also going to feel kind of stuck in those moments. And yeah, so if you have a mono system is what they used to call it back in the day of like Sega Genesis, and all that other stuff. So you just want to be aware of how you're playing Call of Duty, because it does matter in that aspect. So if you're playing Call of Duty, or you're playing another game, you got to have a good headset, it's decent. There's a lot of options out there, I think the main thing is that you find like a 7.1 surround sound system that can assist you with that ability to take on heavy level Call of Duty, or Halo or any of those other games, it because if you can hear the enemy, you're going to have that much more success when you're playing a game like that, and it's just gonna help you out a lot more. And in the end isn't that the goal is you want to be as competitive as possible. Now I know people a lot of times will like listen to podcasts or listen to audiobooks while they play. And that's definitely an awesome option when it comes to playing video games. Because you're able to have fun while you are playing a game. It's just, you know, it's it's kind of like the grind, some throwing your favorite podcast or something to help you through the grind. And maybe you're not fully actively involved. But you are able to level up your character, which who doesn't want to do that. Especially if you've kind of got the system down of how to play that game. Maybe just throw the headset off and play that way with some audio in the background. That can be very helpful when it comes to gaming. So lots of good options there a lot of good stuff. But your headset does matter if you're really competitive. If you want to take it to the next level. There's plenty of them out there. Just make sure you're shopping on the good old. Whatever your favorite shopping services was Amazon eBay, you could probably find a good deal on eBay. I wouldn't recommend like buying a headset used because sometimes you get like a smelly headset that someone was wearing. And yeah, do you really want all that sweat nastiness that they had when they were competitively playing Call of Duty? I said? I don't think so people. So you just want to be like really smart. That's why I don't recommend buying used headsets? Because it doesn't feel good about us headset because it stinks. And yeah. So yeah, don't buy us jet set on eBay. If you want to have a happy life. Now outside of that just buy it new, find a good one don't have to buy most expensive one unless like you're on a you're like on an Xbox or ps4 and you're totally like bought into that. One thing that's kind of going to change I don't think like the PS five, I'm not sure. But I'm pretty sure the PS five is going to make you buy a completely new headset, which is Yeah, not cool at all. So that's just like something that they need a really kind of be nice about. Because you go..
