Razer Piranha Gaming Headset

Juniper Foo | Nov 23, 2005

It may be game over for the World Cyber Games at Suntec City, but those still revved up from all that virtual gameplay can check out co-sponsor Razor's newly announced 5.1 surround-sound gaming headset. Named after a deadly fish that's yet to make it to the sushi platter, the Piranha joins Razer's staple of Vipers, Diamondbacks, Tarrantulas and Barracuda for hardcore gamers. Here's the thing. If you're constantly getting flack for being too loud during gameplay, investing in a quality gaming headset may be good for your health. That way, your parents, siblings, neighbors, spouse, partner, pet or assorted combo won't bite your head off or do you bodily harm when next you crank up the volume.
