Asus' Republic of Gamers brand is now branching out into peripherals such as the Vulcan ANC headset.
Asus has just announced the Vulcan ANC headset as a new addition to its Republic of Gamers (ROG) line-up of gaming hardware and peripherals.
The Vulcan is the first headset in the ROG range, and Asus claims that it's been designed from the ground up for gamers.
The set of cans features active noise cancelling technology, which aims to cut out intrusive outside sounds to allow gamers to frag in peace. The headset is also wireless and operates over a Bluetooth connection.
According to Asus, the Vulcan ANC will also feature carbon-fibre-effect detailing and 40mm drivers. The headset is already in production, so expect to see the ROG branded headset on the shelves at your favourite retailer sometime soon.

Just what I was thinking. Headset does look good though. Be interesting to see if it clamps onto your head like a vice..I kinda get that impression from the look of it.
I'll soon be in the market for a good headset (at a good price) so maybe I might look into this when it comes. Saying that though, the general vibe I've got is that I'm better off going for a great set of headphones and a separate mic, so it'd have to really hit the spot.
@edit: Just noticed the Active Noise-Cancelling feature - my girlfriend will love these! I already get loads of stick for not hearing her when I've got headphones on
@editedit: Ooo Bluetooth too, if I the mic can be stashed away maybe it could be tolerable as a headset on the move.. Just about any Bluetooth speakers I've seen are rubbish, being designed for calls rather than sound quality. It would be good if these were the ultimate all-rounder headset, but maybe I'm just dreaming
I hope they prove me wrong, but i cant see it.
Also how will it work with sound cards.......( I know its bluetooth, but how may 3.5mm to Bluetooth adapters you seen??)
