I was looking up PC controller prices and found this... $136 off?! $136 WOULD BE TOO EXPENSIVE IF THAT WERE THE ENTIRE PRICE, LET ALONE $735.

I don't care if it's made of fucking unicorn farts, why the fuck should it be that expensive?

Also aparently xbox controllers are now like $250. Who the fuck is paying more than $50 for a controller lmao wtf has gaming become.

Fuck that noise, I don't care if it performs like shit, I'm buying a shitty ali express controller for $10 instead lmao.

Gamers delenda est. :gamer-gulag:

          If you already have a separate mic, the Sennheiser RS-175 is exactly your budget. Basically the same as what I have. They are RF instead of Bluetooth, 3.5mm or optical to the transmitter (optical all day baby), sound amazing, volume control on the side, recharge on the rack or swap AAA's easily if you forget to charge them.

          Oh also be sure to turn off the hearing assist mode, probably just by holding the button for 3 seconds. That makes them go much louder and makes the headphones ignore accidental pushes of that button, until you hold it for 3 seconds again. Hearing assist just changes the treble and bass for hearing impairments.

          If you need a mic'd headset, I would either go with one of the many Sennheiser gaming headsets or a Logitech G Pro X gaming headset. Those two companies are very consistent. I have never disliked a Logitech peripheral in my entire life or felt it didn't match its price.
