The answer is unequivocally... YES!
I swear more people asked me about this item than anything else we've carried. They all have someone that plays video games (
or play video games themselves, and they are interested in getting the Viper-X as a gift. Well, ever since I got the sample, I've been using them non-stop. No matter what genre of game I play, these only enhance the experience.
The Viper-X utilizes dynamic stereo sound that compliments the sound found in most modern games. This allows you to hear where an enemy is approaching from, where a teammate is at on the court, etc. You can only imagine what they do for jump scare heavy horror games! It makes gaming so much more immersive; it's like you're inside the game world.
And, yes, these also work with consoles like Xbox One and PlayStation 4. They include an adapter that funnels both the sound and the microphone into one 3.5mm jack. I use a gaming laptop, so I use the adapter as well because there isn't a separate microphone output like on a desktop computer.
Not only do these sound great, but they look and feel great, too! The earphones and adjustable headband are padded, and the cord is 6.5 feet long, giving you plenty of slack for a comfortable gaming experience. There's even a volume control on the cord so you don't have to adjust your TV or computer volume settings.
One of the coolest parts about this headset is the LED color changing lights in the earphones. Now these do require the USB cord to be plugged in, so if you are playing on console, you won't be able to utilize these; sorry.
Because there is a mic, you can use these for video chat, both on your computer and smartphone. And the microphone does pivot, so you can move it out of the way and just use these as headphones to enjoy music or movies.
