HyperX Cloud Headset (Accessory Review)

The HyperX Cloud headset is a new product from the California based Kingston Technology Company. The product is a high quality gaming headset that is built with the best products and technologies on the market. The headset is an expensive product, but gamers looking to get the best performance from their headset will love the HyperX Cloud. A few options including colors gives gamers even more reasons to pick up a HyperX Cloud. The product is available in stores now, and we recently had a chance to go hands-on with the headset.

The first thing we noticed when using the HyperX Cloud was how comfortable the headset felt during testing. The headset features extra padding on the headband, and the band is fully adjustable to fit heads of all sizes. The ear cups also have built-in memory foam that makes the headset feel comfortable for hours on end. The lightweight product weighs in at 9.6 ounces, so it doesn't weigh down gamers, and we were able to wear the headset for several consecutive hours without feeling any ill effects from the extended use of the HyperX Cloud.

The HyperX Cloud runs on a Hi-Fi 53mm driver that produces the highest of audio qualities. The headset is capable of producing sounds from 15-25,000 Hz, which means every sound in a game comes across crystal clear through the HyperX Cloud. We were surprised with just how excellent the sounds produced by the smaller headset were capable of producing. The booming bass was one of the best we've heard from any headset, and the sounds are fully adjustable, so gamers can get just the performance they are looking for from the HyperX Cloud. It's also worth noting the headset features a fully removable microphone for the times where the game needs to be heard with no extra smack talk across in-game voice chat.

HyperX Cloud is built with high quality products including a tough aluminum skeleton that helps the headset and mic hold up to a beating and still continue to produce excellent audio quality. The HyperX Cloud is a popular choice among professional gamers with teams such as Intel Extreme Masters, Alliance Gaming, Team Liquid and SK-Gaming backing the product. HyperX Cloud stands among the best headsets available in the industry. Some gamers would argue that the HyperX Cloud isn't he best headset on the market, but it's darn close to being elite.

The HyperX Cloud costs more than most other headsets on the market, but it features an excellent design that includes multiple color designs in black and red and black and white, a fully detachable microphone and a comfortable fit with extra padding and memory foam lining. These excellent features, in addition to great technology that produces the highest quality sounds, makes the HyperX Cloud an expensive product that is well worth the money Kingston is asking for their product. Look for HyperX Cloud in stores today!

HyperX Cloud headset is now available from most major retailers and can be purchased for $149.99. For more information on the headset, check out the official HyperX Cloud website.

Captain Wayne: Vacation Desperation - Retro Rampage on Orca Isle (Game Review)

Captain Wayne: Vacation Desperation detonates with hand‑drawn, ink‑drenched visuals and breakneck retro shooter action, grafting a double‑barreled shotgun onto a sailor’s arm and sending him on a gleefully gory rampage across Orca Isle.

Haymaker: VR Brawling, Up Close - Authentic, physics‑first combat that turns your body into the controller. (Game Review)

Haymaker is a physics‑first VR brawler in active Early Access that prioritizes authentic, body‑driven melee and high replayability. Its core systems are already playable: weighty, physics‑based hand interactions for grabbing, grappling, and striking; gesture‑driven kicks and knees that reward full‑body motion; adaptive AI that reads and reacts to the battlefield; and sandbox encounters that encourage improvisation with props and environment. Many systems remain in prototype; levels, progression loops, and some modes are still being shaped, but the mechanical foundation is solid and satisfying. The studio is deliberately using Early Access as a development lab: player feedback will guide tuning, bug fixes, and content expansion, so the game you play now is a promising glimpse of a more polished, content‑rich brawler to come. Core systems and combat • Physics‑driven hands : Interactions are governed by a weight‑aware physics model that responds to force, angle, and momentum; so grabs, h...
