Re: headsets

I’ve got my eye on this sucker: [XBOX Wireless Headset](http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/US/EN,CRID=1581,CONTENTID=9524)

I already have the Logitech wireless controllers. They are sweet, but I found out that I had to put the sensors up high enough so that the dog couldn’t stand in front of them. Just picture me screaming and waving at the dog, “GET OUT OF THE WAY! GET OUT OF THE WAY!” He stared at me blankly until the Flood killed me and then he moved. Little bastard. 😃  
They are slightly smaller then the S-controller so those of you with girlie hands (and me literally) will find them more comfortable to hold.

Only 6 hours on a charge? Any gamer worth his salt can play 6 hours before breakfast. You’d think for 80 bucks it’d be a little more convenient. Looks cool though.

I did a previous post a couple of days ago but the hamsters ate it. Long story short I love the game and the xbl name is Miltonyz.

My friend and I played it about 12 hours on both friday and saturday night.  
See you guys on.
