Thread: Eyewear for Gaming??? WTF!?!?!

gonna try my shooting glasses

PC magazine reviewed them, and seem to think they really did all they claim for your eyes. I'd be interested, but not at that price point. My eyes deff hurt after playing to much l4d/mass effect.

I used to play on a professional level for FPS gaming, and with my sponsorship contract I was gives a pair of those glasses and a headset.
The glasses, imho, really didn't help out all that much.
It seems like you would spend 150$ on a headset to get that boost the hearing department, being able to hear enemy footsteps is a key part of outplaying your enemy.
But with these glasses every time you took them off you would play just as well as you would with them on.
I'm not saying they're a bad product, just maybe more of a placebo effect.

well be honest the title kinda mislead me I rather thought you were talking about video display glasses ,hmds etc i-Glasses i3pc

Whoa! Starting to get hostile over here. lol No Morbx I do not enjoy any wood other than the smooth feeling of my own.

I think a cover over the screen of your monitor would be more ideal.... i think the annoyance of glasses on my head(being as i dont wear them normally) would be more of a discomfort factor and actually throw my gaming off.

Something like this but more ideal for gaming purposes:

i can see how this would be helpful if your eyes were "red" or "dry"


thats my biggest fucking problem with bc2 atleast
