Well, Christmas is over and I have my toys, because I'm one hell of a boy. To the XBox I ran for some gaming pleasure, because it was cold outside, what shitty weather. Quickly I started my game up, and with shotgun and sword someone would be fucked. It's time to try out my new things, Logitech baby, badda bing.
So, for Christmas I get the Logitech wireless XBox controller, and to play on live, I went and bought the headset to go with it. The controller is fucking sweet. Everyone I know loves it. The analog sticks are a little more responsive, so I had to adjust, but once I got the hang of it I was back in the swing of things. Supposedly it has roughly 50 hours of play, but if you turn vibration off, it has 300. I love it though, because since I started playing on Live! I would get the cords tangled when I was sitting on the couch.
The headset is another matter. It's small, and sleek. Sound clarity is perfect. Everyone's told me they could hear me loud and clear, and I can hear them just fine as well. It's very comfortable, though I felt my ear get a little weighted after a couple of hours, but then I just switched over to the other. The piece comes with an ion lithium battery that you can't service. The manual says lifetime is about 6 hours, and 1-1.5 hrs recharge time. So my headset died out towards the end of last night. For the gaming junkie that could be bad, but I don't play Live! quite enough usually to wear it out. So it was fine with me. If your one to game for a little bit, then this is an awesome piece of machinary. The main thing off a review I read was there was a lot of white noise, or static in the background. The person acted like this was very prominant. However, it's barely noticable until your not talking and nothings going on. Once the action starts or people are talking you can't hear anything.
