Unless you have been living under a rock for the past few years, you have undoubtedly become aware of the huge expansion of the eSports industry. What was once dominated by small groups of friends getting together for LAN parties is now a multi-billion dollar a year international industry. I remember fondly the LAN parties of yore, where you packed up your system (CRT monitor included) and carried it over to a friend’s house or local business to battle it out in Unreal Tournament, Quake, or some other multi-player game. Those days are back, albeit without much lugging around of computers. With competitive gaming’s big return comes a renewed desire for gaming equipment that will help give you an edge in battle.

One of the most critical weapons in any gamer’s arsenal is a good gaming headset. A good headset gives you the ability to isolate outside noise while providing detailed, sharp, and clear sound from all sides. A gaming headset also lets you easily and understandably communicate with the other members of your team. In this article, Benchmark Reviews is looking at the Ozone Rage ST Gaming Headset and compares it directly with other Gaming Headsets to see what sets it apart and how well it performs.
