Since these headphones are a combination headset, we will be taking a look at both the Xbox and PC gaming capabilities of these headphones. Games of different genres will be used on each platform in order to reach out to different game types that gamers will use. First person shooter players aren’t the only ones who want top-notch audio when gaming.
PC Gaming
While there are newer games out there, I found these two games to have good sound and give good positional audio as well as detailed audio.
Need for Speed Shift
While NFS: Shift isn’t the newest racing game out there I find it has quite accurate and detailed sound. With the 7H, I was pretty amazed by the quality. There was nothing like flying down a straight away at 180mph hearing the Twin Turbo V12 engine screaming away. Screeching tires were detailed and crisp to the point where they almost sounded real. Positional sound worked very well too, it was very nice to hear someone coming up behind me giving a good sense of where to block the pass attempt.
Team Fortress 2
TF2 is quite a popular game these days, where sound can make a big difference between a win and a loss. This headset can help turn the tide in aiding your victory. Sound is very crisp and clear, from a spy uncloaking around the corner to a uber being deployed near you everything comes in crystal clear on this headset. Explosions are booming but not overwhelming and all small details are heard with great clarity. I would have to say that you will enjoy playing this game with the 7H headset all day long and you wont have to worry about being uncomfortable either during your hours long frag session.
