Date Added: December 24th, 2005 Print: Printable B&W Version

So, you want a 5.1 surround sound experience without all the hassles of cords, speakers, stands, and actually having to leave your computer to go earn some money to buy it all? You want an extreme, crystal-clear, 3D gaming experience, all for under $10? You want to frag ruthlessly all night long while you pull the chicks with a slick audio set-up?


The AudioFX unit in all its glory.
Well stop reading this review now, fatso, wipe the Doritos off your keyboard and start begging some goon to go steal things for you. If, however, you want the next best thing, then eDimensional has you covered. Featuring a bass-boosting force feedback unit, a noise reducing microphone and crisp speakers, the AudioFX Force Feedback Gaming Headset is the latest in a series of products bringing new experiences to PC gaming. Despite a few less-than-nifty LEDs and the occasional quirky death-rattle, this is a piece of hardware that any serious gamer should consider.

Shook Me All Night Long
It's all about the rumble. If you own a subwoofer you'll know what I'm talking about. From those sonic joys you've got pumping out of Winamp to the comforting blast of your AWP, an audio system without a bottom end that shakes your room is no audio system at all. But, as any seasoned gamer will know, rarely will a surround sound system match up to a good pair of 3D headphones in terms of pin-pointing enemy's whereabouts. And so, as if it was the result of some cruel joke by the computer gaming gods, we are forced to choose between a cool rumbling bass and actually knowing where that bloody camper is shooting from.

But do not lose heart, for the answer is here.
