Can you hear people around you? I play video games with my gf and I want to be able to hear her speak without taking the headset off.

The are open headphones but they still cover your ears. I can hear others talk to me but if you actually want to listen to them you will have to pull it off your ear. They don't cancel noise very well. Which I like because you don't get an echo when you talk.

Yes the G4ME ONE allows you to hear outside noises and also allows your ears to breath comfortably.
1509905
Yes, they seem to work far better for that than other headsets I've owned in the past.

Yes you can. Even though the cups fit nice and snug around your ears, you're still able to hear people or some-other noise that may be going on around you, but keep in mind; it's nothing that takes-away any of the sound[s] that you'll get when using these headsets. Owned these since this past Christmas, and I personally love them!

Unless you are playing your music incredibly loud others in the room should not be able hear what you are listening to. My wife says she cannot hear anything I am listening to.

I can connect these headphones with my PS3, but you can not hear game sound. You can talk and hear others when you play multiplayer game online. If you do want to use them to listen to game, music or movie, I suggest you to get a Bluetooth transmitter and hook it up with your TV audio output. (I did this in my home setting up)

I don't play those type of games so I don't know the answer to that. I can talk to people that call me on my phone with the headphones. I don't know the technology behind gaming.

I have hearing problem but my wife can hear very well, my question is, can I hear through head phone, same time other person hear TV from TV speaker?

you can but it is very low audio. i recommend anything other than this headset such as astro, etc.

Absolutely. It is not a soundproof headset meaning you can still hear people and sounds (doorbells!) that are away from you.

Well i was able to connect it to my ps3 but i wouldnt be able to hear anything nor be able to talk to anyone as well. i mainly use my headset for my laptop and not my ps3 so i dont really know why thats happening...i havent got a chance to look into it so i cant really answer your question, sorry =/

Its possible...depends on the TV. I have to set my TV to "external speaker" when I use the headset. When I do that, the internal speakers (normal TV speakers) are out of service and sound goes through my headset.

I am 99% certain that this is possible. The settings can be adjusted in the xbox menu. If I recall correctly, I actually set this up when I had a friend over and we played online with a third friend. Game sounds through the tv/monitor and chat through the headset.

I, also, had that concern. I was recently on a flight from Chicago to Albuquerque and was playing my MP3 player at full volume. I removed the headset and placed in my lap, couldn't hear a thing. I was also in a middle seat and neither side could hear a thing (and I like my Jams loud.)

No they will not, these headphones really are great in that aspect. The noise isolation is incredible. I have had multiple occasions where people have been trying to talk to me while I was using them, and I had no idea anyone was trying to talk to me. They told me they couldn't hear the music at all, but it was loud enough for me to not be able to tell anyone was talking to me.

I cannot understand why you would want to? Noise-cancellation is very helpful and eliminates background distractions when talking to other people online. Again, it's why Sennheiser is the best out there.

I suggest you get a wireless headphone. You can still use the speaker volume plus volume in the headset. Hope this helps in your query.

You can test your Mic on call of duty. The headphones are good for playing any game on the gamepad!

game sound and chat. I am so totally satisfied with it. You can even turn it up loud enough, if you want, that you can set it down somewhere in the room and everyone in the room can be heard. We chat with my son that way.

If you do't wan't the microphone yes you can simply not have it hooked up. However the microphone is really only working in tandem with your headset mic or desktop mic to cancel out background noise.Hope that helps
