The Best Part of the First Week of Destiny is the PlayStation Gold Wireless Stereo Headset

After pouring dozens of hours of into 'Destiny' over the past week, there's no doubt, the PlayStation Gold Wireless Stereo Headset is one the best products that Sony has on the market today, and it's a killer headset solution for the PS4.

Really thinking about getting rid of the PX5 and getting one of Sony's headsets

Bennibop3509d ago

I have the elites the sound quality is fantastic and the hold 5 downloadable presets

nX3509d ago

I have both and the Gold is actually better because it's much more comfortable yet just as good in terms of sound quality. It's actually the best Headset I owned yet and it really is a must buy for every PS4 (and PS3 owner) because it's very close to being perfect :)

itBourne3509d ago

I have both as well, I actually prefer the elites. A ton more settings for sound, as the Gold I have maxed out on everything, and my ps4 chat audio still sounds quiet.

Both are fantastic though, I have the elites plugged into my ps4, and the Gold plugged into my pc. Lol, for the price you really cannot complain at all.

wsoutlaw873509d ago

how could chat sound quiet, you can change it all the way until chat is the only thing you can hear and crank the volume. I have never thought chat volume was low

I had the PX5's and the golds are better because there is no interference. My PX5 headset was terrible for interference especially when running a micro wave. Golds are cheaper and sound great.

SaffronCurse3509d ago

Might be considering getting the golds. The Pulse headset that I have now are uncomfortable after 30 minutes of having them on. I heard that the Golds are much more comfy on the ears.

I love my sony gold wireless headset. :) great value!!!

tanukisuit3509d ago

I knew it...! I should have bought these when I had the damn chance ($77 CDN at Target). Welp, gotta hope for Black Friday...

FullmetalRoyale3509d ago

It is truly worth it. I chose to view my purchase of the gold headset for $99 as an investment for my ps4. Now I watch Netflix in surround sound, along with all of my games. I couldn't go back to playing without a headset, as everything sounds so flat and hallow through my television now.

@tunukisuit
I was on the fence about buying them for awhile...then I saw them drop to 69.99 on amazon and I pulled the trigger...amazing value!!

holdmyown833509d ago

Got mines with the last of us. Both ended up being $100

Destiny Made Over $160 Million In Microtransaction Revenue In Less Than 2 Years

Destiny has made over $160 million in MTX revenue, and these numbers only account the data from late 2017 to early 2019.

Sgt_Slaughter333d ago

That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it

LucasRuinedChildhood333d ago (Edited 333d ago )

This was back when the game wasn't free to play.

The figures are from November 2017 to February 2019 (1 year and 4 months).

Based on that projection, the MTX revenue for Destiny 2 likely would have been closer to ~$240m for 2 years.

Not sure if premium expansions are included in that figure either although ... I'd hope that they are though and that most of the revenue was for actual content like Forsaken.

People spend way too much money on cosmetics.

Rude-ro333d ago (Edited 333d ago )

Seasons($10 and just got bumped to $12) and dungeon keys($10 each, two a year) are through the eververse(micro transaction) store.
So for those two years, in order to play a season, you would pay through micro transactions.

Sonic1881333d ago (Edited 333d ago )

Bungie Marathon will be worse since it's designed around it as well

Kurt Russell332d ago

It makes me sad to agree... but at the same time I am looking forward to giving it a go. Destiny 2 is so far in, I find it difficult to figure out what I am meant to do first.

buffig333d ago

I think FIFA alone makes over $1bn a year from mtx

anast333d ago

FIFA promotes a worldwide sport. It should make more money than destiny.

CantThinkOfAUsername333d ago (Edited 333d ago )

Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.

z2g333d ago

For as much as ppl complain how much they hate microtransactions, they sure don’t act like it. No wonder they aren’t going anywhere.

spicelicka333d ago

By "people" you're referring to millions and millions of people. Obviously the ones complaining aren't necessarily the same as the ones spending all that money.

There's millions that purchase MTX and there's nothing we can do about it

I've been thinking about playing through D1 again before it goes away...

CobraKai484d ago

That’s the sad reality of a game like this. I bought it, invested lots of money, and it can go away at anytime. I still think this was more fun than 2.

jeromeface483d ago

prob because 2 is a grindfest slog

spoonard481d ago

That's the bummer of 'games as a service'.
