"By working closely with Fatal1ty to develop the Fatal1ty Gaming Headset, we designed a product that gives gamers the ultimate competitive advantage," said Darragh O'Toole, European Product Group Manager with Creative. "By incorporating large 40mm Neodymium drivers, the Fatal1ty Gaming Headset keeps the player on the edge of the seat with earth-shattering explosions and sharp sniper shots, while voice commands are crisp and clear. The detachable mic is totally flexible, plus it includes a wind screen to filter out unwanted noise. "
