Hey guys, I'm looking to get a new set of headphones here pretty soon so I want your opinions, but I also have a request.

The headphones I'm currently using are:

These things are so awesome to use, but they don't have a mic which saddens me. Can someone find me a pair of headphones just like my SENTRY set, except with a working mic that won't break/stop working after a few days/week, I'd really appreciate it. (I still want to hear your suggestions too.)

EDIT: Did a little looking on the SENTRY site. What do you think of these?

those aren't my exact headphones but they are close

I use a logitech usb headset, but only beacuse it was the cheapest headphones at wal-mart that had a mic XD. I regret buying usb though because they cannot connect to my tv :\



None.

Woah

I have the ones Howler posted, and they're terrible.* I had my first pair for about 7 months, and the sound went out in the right ear. I got a new pair, and the same thing happened again a few months later. I also wear glasses, and extensive use can kill your ears.

I use Logitech G35 headphones. They're noise-cancelling and circumaural (surrounds your ear), which is wonderful. My only complaint is that they sometimes mess up with Windows 7 64bit, but it's easy to fix. I also hear the Steelseries Siberia v2 headset is amazing. These are both like $99+, so I dunno what your budget is.

EDIT:
* I should note that I mean the exact ones in that picture. They're the Wireless USB Clearchat or something. I still use them for my PS3, but not for very long periods of time.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
