<div class="IPBDescription">Headphones/WoW</div> Okay I bought new headphones about 2 weeks ago from newegg (<a href='http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=36-151-019&depa=0' target='_blank'>these headphones</a>) and they broke after 2 days. I RMA'd them, and they sent it back even MORE broken (I guess I get what I pay for). I'll keep it short:

Question # 1.) Headphone recommendations. I've been looking at <a href='http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=26-106-009&depa=0' target='_blank'>these</a>, yay or ney?

Question # 2.) I just ordered WoW. Why? I don't know...I'm not into the whole monthly paying for games because I think it's a scam, but I've heard so much about the game I HAD to try it. So I ordered it from bestbuy yesterday. What should I know about the game before playing it? (Also known as tips. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

Thanks!

    Tip #1. Play Alliance on Frostwolf, and join the other 50 NS'ers on there.

    Yeah for SE they sure are making lots of money through FF11 (And now EQ2 for Japan) . Then they're making another MMORPG called fantasy earth.

    Too bad your headphones broke after 2 days. Not sure about picking headphones but I usally buy the cheap ones and it usally lasts 5+ months.

    I would recommend any medium-price range from Sennheiser.

    I have a pair of Sennheiser HD202s and they're superb.

    Seinnheiser is good, and Platronics makes some nice ones especially if you want an attached microphone.

    Do you have a 5.1 surround sound audio card? (It needs to have a center, front and rear speaker jack) If you do I think you should get a pair of
    <a href='http://www.zalmanusa.com/usa/product/view.asp?idx=134&code=023' target='_blank'>these</a>. Undeniably the best set of headphones I've ever worn. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I'm not really into spending over $20 bucks on headphones so I think I'm going to go with the Plantronics.

    In other news: My brand new 100 dollar power supply that I ordered from newegg is malfunctioning. I'm starting to hate newegg.

    Believe me, Sennheiser is worth its "more than 20 bucks". <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Platronics model 90's are AWESOME. The quality is great, its easy to figure out where something is, and the mic is really good. Plus their cheap.

    About WoW, don't be a pansey and play Alliance, go find a good PvE server and play Hoard (Personally I play on Bloodhoof). There's plenty of PvP action, just only for those who choose it so you can't get ganked while exploring unless you want to <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
