Anyone else just sick waiting for this?  Picking it up at midnight at Gamestop and taking the next day off.  Probalby going to try to play 24 hours straight. 

Would you recommend meth, cocaine, adderol, or red bull?

This is my most anticipated game in years. Maybe decades. I'm tempted to take the 10th off.

I was looking at the 129.99 Tritton at Best Buy but have a friend who has Earforce X-31 and loves them. He can hear the direction fire is coming from. Helps him a ton.  The X-31 is cheaper. I'm going to read more reviews before buying.

Nobody really knows, IW has said a lot of stupid sh*t, but pretty much Activision just wants to kill the PC gaming market more than likely.  Sad, as I loved Medal of Honor Allied Assault - the first creation of IW before they were even IW.

PC games always get tons of custom modifications made by the community.  IW said they aren't even releasing an SDK for MW2.

    shame on you, non-believers
Shouldn't have left the team at work that gave me free XBox games. Also shouldn't have left my controller where my dog could eat it.

Tritton 720's or Astro A40s. A40s are by far the best but cost $250. Both have dedicated mixers.

there is a big different though, hence the price difference for the a40s.  the trittons aren't 5.1, the a40s are.  pete if you have a 5.1 channel receiver you can run your 360 through it and save money and just buy some 5.1 headphones.  if not, and you want to take full advantage of the dolby 5.1 sound, you need to step up to the pro series trittons or the a40s.

The 720's are indeed simulated 5.1, but I personally think they sounded better and more realistic than the "true 5.1" pros. Also, if you want to chat, you'll need more than just 5.1 headphones.

Thanks guys.

I believe I am going to go with the Tritton 720, and not the Astro because of price. 

However, just to confirm, I don't have a 5.1 receiver, but I will still be cool if I get the Tritton 720 (i.e. I don't need an extra receiver, correct?).

Correct. It comes with a mixer that does all that. You run a fiber optic cord from your box to the receiver. Pretty sure everything is included with the Tritton.
