Since we don't use CRT's anymore you can use a computer for 12 hours a day every day and not fuck up your vision anymore. The refresh rate and the way images were produced by CRTs caused that vision damage. LCDs don't have that problem. | ||

They dont use cheap headphones I'm sure and you otherwise would hear the progamers complain about this if it actually was a problem. | ||

Yeah and someone pointed out there are doors on those booths, you'll notice Boxer knocks before he opens his opponents booth . So polite after crushing their dreams.The players could not see the screen as it was facing away from them. I was at MLG dallas and standing as close to the players section as possible, it was nearly impossible to focus on what the casters were saying. Let alone be able to make sense of it when you're playing a game. | ||

Assuming you like to play in the dark. | ||

They're Sony XB500s or 700s (hard to tell) but they don't block an extraordinary amount of noise. They should instead be giving the players the headphones Artosis and Tasteless use sans the mic. They're Sennheiser HD25s which are standard for media, casting and DJing work due to their amazing sound isolation. | ||

You cant really stop playing for a few seconds to try and listen to the casting... Late in the game I'd kinda agree, but early game hearing the commentators talk about a proxy or all-in would be a massive advantage. | ||

You can always wear ear buds with some ear protection over it too. I mean I'm pretty sure idra and other people would bitch about it if it was deafening. Unnecessarily rude -- all the guy said was that it was interesting and that he HOPED it wasn't harmful to the players... no need to be a dick to him for being concerned about the people who are the main reason we have these great games to watch. | ||

Mm, at DH it was impossible to hear Day9 when the crowd was cheering, generally the sound level was low since to hear the casting you pretty much had to keep quiet. ^^ | ||
