Tritton AX-180, Good Budget Headphones for the Enthusiastic Gamer

For any gamer, there will eventually be a stage when they would want to up their game. By purchasing a headset, a player could gain a distinct advantage over someone without one. I needed a good headset, but did not want to spend a large amount of money. The Tritton AX-180 headset stood out because it was decently priced and was one of the only wired headsets with good reviews.
Sound Quality
The sound quality of the Trittons is fairly good, with a decently strong bass and crisp sound. Because it is only a stereo headset, it can’t deliver surround sound for games that support it. In games such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, it is easy to hear footsteps of enemies from any direction and can aid the gamer greatly. Even with stereo sound, it is easy to determine the direction and distance of sounds. The microphone quality is great, making me easy to understand on Xbox Live, PSN, or even Ventrilo. It is leaps and bounds better than the Xbox’s default headset which definitely makes it easier for my friends and clanmates. When the headset is used for other purposes such as music, it holds up decently well, providing a good listening experience. For audiophiles who expect a lot, you may want to look somewhere else.

Ease of Use
The problem with many gaming headsets is the difficulty with connecting the equipment to the gaming console. The Tritton AX-180 uses a 3.5mm headphone plug and connects to consoles by using an RCA composite to 3.5mm female adapter. The headset is USB powered so it requires any USB port that exists on the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, or PCs. For use of the microphone with PCs, the headset uses a 3.5mm connector for microphone ports that are commonly found on computers and laptops. For connecting the microphone with an Xbox, there is an in-line connector for a wire that connects straight to an Xbox 360 controller. For a PS3, the USB plug is all the headset needs for using the microphone. The in-line volume and voice level control also features a microphone on/off switch which makes any audio changes extremely easy and fast. The removable microphone allows you to use the headset as just a listening device without a microphone in your way. The headset is extremely comfortable, allowing me to wear it for hours on end without any aches or pains.

Price
The headset retails for around $75 at Best Buy and other stores. In my opinion, I find it a decent price for a comfortable headset with decent audio, good build quality, and ease of use. It is a flexible headset that can be used for many platforms which is definitely a plus in my opinion. Other options would be headsets from Turtle Beach which are around the same price but are of the wireless variety.

Final Thoughts
I would recommend this headset to any budget gamer who just wants an edge in the competition. The Trittons will last for a while and with cross-platform capabilities, it can be used for a variety of uses. I am quite satisfied with my purchase and I hope my words can help you make a satisfying purchase as well.

Action Online Gaming: Dive into Adventure with the Click of a Mouse

Action online gaming is very popular, especially for those who are too timid to try some of the more adventurous pursuits. Of course, not everyone dreams of sailing the high seas with a pirate crew, or of riding a motorcycle through a flaming hoop, but for those who do, action online gaming may well be the safer, saner alternative.
There are any number of these games available on a dazzling array of game sites- some free, some fairly cheap, and some more expensive, so it’s important to know what kind of action you are looking for and how much you are willing to pay to have it. Read over the requirements of the game’s site carefully, and then decide if it is right for you before signing up for any memberships. If there is a free trial period, all the better. Also, know if your computer will be able to handle the game itself, as some systems move too slowly to be of any use in a serious gaming situation.

Once you have established that your computer will be okay, you can decide what kind of action online gaming you will be doing and how often. (These factors will decide the value of a site membership.) If you only get to the computer once in a while, then it is simply not worth it to pay for a monthly membership- on the other hand, if you play often, it would make no sense at all to use a pay per play site either. Consider your frequency, then take the price you are quoted and divide the two numbers to get your per play price. For instance, if you play frequently, for example once or more per day for five days of the week, a $9.95 per month membership will equal out to less than fifty cents per day. The less you play though, the more the pay per play cost will be. Of course, if do only play the game once a month or less, than a pay per play or free site is the way for you to go.

Adventure online gaming can be exciting and fun, and may actually help with hand and eye coordination as well as mental health. Studies have shown that using your mind and hands at the same time forces your brain to exercise, which is just as important as physical exertion for staying healthy.

Indianapolis Colts Vs Denver Broncos: Las Vegas Line; Pick Against the Spread

The Indianapolis Colts travel to play the Denver Broncos in Invesco Field September 26th. The game shapes up to be a battle of wits between Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos defense. Manning has carved up the Denver Broncos in the past and it could be a repeat performance in this game if they can’t get their running game in gear.
Passing Attack of Indianapolis Colts Against the Denver Broncos Is Not Much of Match

Peyton Manning has shown no signs of slowing down for the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos will not be the team that can slow him down. Manning should have an average game for him. 300 yards and three touchdowns on the road from the visiting quarterback will usually result in a victory if the Indianapolis Colts defense can hold the line.

Kyle Orton has grown to become more than just a serviceable quarterback for the Denver Broncos. Orton has shown he does have skills to play in the NFL but he will be tested in this game against a stronger and faster defense in the Indianapolis Colts. Orton has his rookie wide receiver DeMaryius Thomas back in the lineup and he was his favorite target last weekend. Passing attack goes to the Indianapolis Colts.

Running Game of Indianapolis Colts; Denver Broncos Have Been Inconsistent

Knoshown Moreno, the Denver Broncos young running back struggled to get on line until last weekend when he showed signs of life. The Denver Broncos will have to get the ball on the ground and eat clock to keep Peyton Manning off the field and out of sync. Look for the rotation of Brian Westbrook and Moreno to be carrying the ball early and often. With Bob Sanders out of the lineup for the Indianapolis Colts defense, they are susceptible to the run.

The Indianapolis Colts made a statement in their game against the New York Giants by running the ball relentlessly to start the game. It was a statement the Colts made to make sure the rest of the NFL knew they could be committed to the run if the need would arise. The Denver Broncos running game has the edge over the Indianapolis Colts.

Indianapolis Colts -4.5 vs Denver Broncos: Pick Against the Spread; Final Look

The Las Vegas Hilton Superbook opened the Indianapolis Colts as a three point road favorite and they were quickly bet up to a 4.5 favorite. Road favorites over three points are always scary but this is the Indianapolis Colts. Manning has the Denver Broncos number after a few years of having the wrong end of it. Take the Indianapolis Colts over the Denver Broncos by 4.5 points against the spread.
