I've just recently broke my Plantronics Gamecom 777 headset (broke apart as I opened it to put on my head), and need a new one. I'm thinking the Razer Megalodon, as it looks light and durable (ie. not made of cheap chinese plastic). Does anyone know where I can get a good bargain on this, or any other good gaming headsets? Cheapest Megalodon on eBay went for around $140ish + $45 delivery :(
Good, light and durable surround sound gaming headset

Yeah, I have. It's a little too top-heavy. Also, I'm scared if I stretch it too wide when donning it, it'll break the cheap plastic on it.
May not help your situation but I have been using the Plantronics audio 770(discontinued) for a few years now.

That type of design is extremely durable.
No plastic cracking when you open them up.Seems there may be a few stores that still have them in stock which surprises me.

I would get the G35's.
Surround sound in a headset is a gimmick. Those gaming headsets are usually pretty okay microphones with crappy headphones attached. Get a half decent pair of headphones from http://www.headphones.com.au/. Then just use an external microphone. Every plantronics headset I've had, the microphone broke. I just use my webcam mic now, works great.
Clearly you have not used the G35's or you are not a gamer.
headphones.com.au are purely for movie/music listeners.
Have you considered the G35?
