Razer Drops BlackShark Aviator-Inspired Gaming Headset

Razer is known for its extreme and unique naming and designing of gaming peripherals, and its latest gaming headset dubbed the BlackShark is no different in that regard. The BlackShark is an aviator-inspired gaming headset designed after those retro military helicopter headsets said to offer superior comfort and sound isolation thanks to giant over-ear, leatherette covered memory foam ear cups. The BlackShark features a long detachable and adjustable boom mic, 40mm drivers with enhanced bass response and a combined 3.5mm audio and mic plug with a splitter adapter for old school computers that use separate inputs. Razer's BlackShark lands later this month for $120.

GameStop Drops PS3 Price Down To $200

GameStop has independently dropped the price of the 160GB PlayStation 3 model down to $200 from the going $250 retail price. Is this a sign of a new PlayStation console coming our way with E3 fast approaching, or just a simple promotion to clear out loads of unsold inventory? One things for sure though, that's a great deal if you're in the market for a Blu-ray and gaming powerhouse. It isn't clear for how long GameSpot plans to run its promotion, but at least for now no other major retailers joined the party.
