Sheikah Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Thinking about getting a headset for the PS4. Any recommendations? Cheaper the better but I'm open to paying more if it's worth it!The Sony Gold / 2.0 headset is the one many of us are sporting, usually found around the 50-60 quid range. A great all-round wireless headset really. 1
bob Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 I bought a cheap £20 one, and it hurts my ears after about 30 mins. Something to consider if thinking about cheaping out.
Fierce_LiNk Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 I still use the microphone/headset that came out of the box. When I'm playing a single player game, I've got the Sennheiser HD206 pair, which only cost me £30. I actually bought/use it for my guitar for its primary purpose, but I also use it to game on the PS4. It's a really comfy pair, but it doesn't have a microphone, since I didn't actually buy it entirely for gaming purposes. If I was going to get a proper headset, I'd go for the Sony headset that @Sheikah mentioned. Seems to be well-liked by many and the feedback seems to be good. The fact that it's wireless too is a bonus. I imagine I'll get it at some point.

Shorty Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 Hard to beat the Sony Wireless Stereo Headset 2.0 IMO. It's not that cheap though and I've seen QC might not be great on the newer model without the hinge (the hinge can snap though so avoid those anyway). Just get a replacement if people say your mic is no good. 1
Happenstance Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 My Sony headset stopped working after about a year but while it did work it was the best I've used. The fact that it mixed its own audio for gameplay and voice was really helpful.
Ganepark32 Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 I'd forgotten about this as I didn't think it was coming so soon but very happy to see that it's only a few weeks away, and is up for pre-order on the PS Store already with a discount. Can't wait to get stuck in to it as the first game was fantastic, one of my favourite indie and metroidvania games so just hoping for more of the same here and that looks the case from the trailer.

Although I have come to a realisation lately that I just need to stop buying games I'm "kind of" interested in. Playing something like God of War and then AC Origins right after just reminded me that I can still get completely get sucked into a game but if I get something like AC Origins which I bought mainly because of the buzz from other people rather than my own interest will usually end up being a waste of money. 2
Ganepark32 Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 @Hero-of-Time it's not included in that list and I don't know if you're waiting for the Switch release tomorrow but Crossing Souls is also on sale (it's £7.39) if you're interested. Not really seeing much that's taking my fancy. They do tend to add more games as the weeks go on but given how many indie games I already own on the PS4 and that I've played most of the bigger games, there's a small handful that might be worthwhile. I never did play Left Behind for The Last of Us so might pick that up.

Thanks for the heads up. I may get the PS4 version seeing as it's cheaper but I do enjoy playing indie games on a handheld. Decisions, decisions.

Hero-of-Time Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 I have actually played the game they were talking about. It's awful. 2
Hero-of-Time Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 Sony's sales data is out this morning. The amount of PS4's sold this fiscal year has been revised from 16 million to 17 million due to how well the console has been selling. It only had a 100k drop compared to last years sales in the same quarter which is insane given the age of the console. It's sitting at around a total of 82 million units sold. I can see them easily beating their goal of 17 million. They've got Spider-Man, which is getting a crazy amount of hype, and they have the marketing rights to Red Dead Redemption 2 and Call of Duty, two of the biggest games hitting at the end of the year. Add to the fact that they will no doubt be big discounts come Black Friday and I can see them really cleaning up during the holiday period. 2
drahkon Posted July 31, 2018 Posted July 31, 2018 Jesus, the PS4 is almost 5 years old and still selling like hot cakes. Impressive.

That’s good to hear, they’ve been knocking it out of the park on the game side of things this generation, so they deserve every success that they get with the PS4. At this rate, it could reach 100 million units sold by the end of next year. Sony has the games to put it over the line, and while I still doubt that the PS5 will release next year, I have to wonder how much they’ll take numbers like these into consideration.
