The holidays are here and people -perhaps you- are finally able to buy consoles without jumping through huge hoops. But now the question arises: what games are you going to gift?
The Best Gaming Headset For Consoles And PC Gets A Big Cyber Monday Discount
27.11.2023 - 18:05 / gamespot.com / Best
The Arctis 7 is one of the best headsets around for gaming, and it just got a big discount.
By Darryn Bonthuys on
SteelSeries headsets are some of the best and most reliable pieces of audio hardware around, and while we're definitely fans of the Arctis Nova Pro, this Cyber Monday deal on the excellent Arctis 7 is one that you won't want to miss out on. Normally $180, you can pick up one of these all-rounder headsets for just $135 from Amazon for any of the available models that are designed specifically for a certain system. The good news is that even if the Arctis 7 targets a specific platform for compatibility, you'll find that it can easily work on other consoles as well.
The Arctis 7 is at the top of several of our gaming headset lists, and for good reason. It's comfortable to wear for several hours, it has excellent battery life, and the sound quality is close to audiophile-grade. The big draw of this headset is that it has simultaneous Bluetooth audio, allowing you to have multiple audio streams in one headset. Imagine receiving the sounds from your favorite cross-play video game while running a chat group through Discord, and you'll have a good idea of just how useful this feature is.
Three variations of this model are on sale, each one specifically focused on a single platform. The good news is that even with that focus, you're still getting multi-platform functionality from this headset, with the PC and PlayStation versions offering the most compatibility. The Arctis Nova 7X for Xbox consoles will still work wirelessly with other consoles, PC, and mobile devices, but the Nova 7 (PC) and Nova 7P (PlayStation) can't be used on Xbox. They can still work with other consoles and mobile devices, so you won't be losing much here when it comes to overall compatibility.
In case these deals sell out, you can check out the big discounts on the Arctis Nova Pro wireless headsets. These are also deluxe headsets that'll work on a wide number of systems, but they are pricier. You're still getting excellent value for money, and these come with a GameDAC to help you fine-tune the audio.

IGN Awards Celebrates the Best Games, Movies and More
From Nintendo’s triumphant follow-up to Breath of the Wild to the hot pink perfection of Barbie and so much more, 2023 has been a landmark year for games and entertainment. Indeed, IGN has labeled 16 games, movies and TV shows a masterpiece over the past 12 months, with countless more worthy of your time and money. Admittedly, it’s also been a year of polar opposites, and Skull Island: Rise of Kong wasn’t the only stinker to receive a bad score (I’m looking at you, Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey). The games industry suffered a huge number of lay-offs too, and Hollywood strikes put release calendars on hold as screenwriters and actors fought for better working conditions.
