What Critics Are Saying About SteelSeries Siberia v2 for PS3
------------------------------------------------------------
"The Siberia v2 is an extremely well-built headset that, thanks
to its design, is feather-light to wear and provides an excellent
audio experience. In terms of performance the Siberia v2 cannot
be faulted. No matter what type of game or media we asked it to
handle the headset responded and gave us an excellent
experience."
--Hardware Heaven
"All in all then the Steelseries Siberia V2 PS3 headset is a
fantastic quality product based on the legendary Siberia V2--it
has the performance, the features, the looks and the quality to
back it up and I can see this product being one of the most
sought-after console peripherals on the market."
--Hardware Look
"While headsets are great for nighttime gaming, their mics
usually get in the way when you want to, say, listen to music
while eating spaghetti. But not the Siberia v2 from SteelSeries,
which has a built-in retractable microphone."
