Talking about these on GT5 earlier and not everyones seen them.
As they`re wireless I`d like a bit of info about the battery, is
it rechargeable? How many hours play? but definetly looking like
the biz!

As I said last night I don't really use headphones, but wireless
ones are appealing. In our late night events I have to turn TV
down quite a bit so kids don't wake up, but that spoils the
games a bit. This could be my solution.
Going to be about �80 you reckon?

They are just stereo headphones with 7.1 simulated, they arent
proper 7.1's unfortunately.

Well I've had proper 5.1 headphones in the past and to be honest
I dunno about on console but certainly on PC you can really
notice the difference.
Back when I played competitively I used my Medusa 5.1's and I
could pinpoint where someone was across the map the directional
sound was so good. Using the simulated 5.1 on stereo headphones
was nowhere near as good.
So I would say if you can get proper surround sound headphones
they are worth it.
Now with that said. Medusa's you were able to get for �50-�70
(�70 at launch and price came down) but they were wired.
So with these only being stereo but also being wireless, taking
into consideration they are for the console which always adds a
premium, if they are any more than �60-70 I wouldn't bother with
them.
However I will wait and see for reviews because the 5.1
simulation might have been improved.
