imageRazer Ifrit Review – The Streamer’s Headset? - MMORPG.com

Razer’s got a long line of headsets, many of which we’ve reviewed here at MMORPG.com. But one thing they’ve never really done is create a solution geared towards streaming – and that’s just what the Razer Ifrit aims to fix. This low-profile headset is intended to be used while streaming, but truthfully, it’s a good fit for anyone that wants a low-weight and inobtrusive headset.

    At first I thought this was an early (or late) April Fools joke.

    This site is NOT following the proper LEGAL guidelines for posing potential sponsored,partnered business deals.
    The average user could glance at these so called reviews and think them as legit reviews not partnered deals.Every single article must contain the product was received for FREE,the reviewers did not buy this on their OWN ACCORD.
    I know some sites try to yet again circumvent the law by having their employees buy the products out of their own pocket but then reimburse them.If you are not buying this because you WANT to buy it for yourself,you are doing a BIASED review.
    EVERYONE understands that a poor review means NO more products.Example Angry Joe did a poor review on Destiny 1,he was worried he would not receive his free copy of D2.He even went on to say he did not expect to receive it,idk if he ever did receive it for free.I assume he did or it would look very bad for Activision if they censored bad reviews,matter of fact it would be illegal a form of blackmailing reviewers.


    Even better,how about this site put some EFFORT into these so called reviews.Line up several products and list them in order from best to worst,that would be a fair and HONEST review.By fair i don't mean give the 10th worst in the list a 9.9/10 and give all the rest a 10/10,something i wouldn't doubt seeing this site try pull off as legit.Best way is to not score them at all,simply list top 10 best to worst,that way we know it is not a bullshit biased sponsored review.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    $100 for fancy earbuds?  And they don't even throw in the USB converter at that price?

    You have to be a clueless purchaser to buy these!

    Oh, will you get off it please? Yes, Razer provided the sample. Rather than attribute this to some malicious effort to advertise, how about you remember that this is a site ran by a small team all working regular jobs and taking care of families on top of writing about games and tech - because we love it, not because we're paid. Sometimes mistakes happen, dude, and I would hope that the 99.99% of reviews that have the disclaimer would have bought some benefit of the doubt.

    As far as things getting good reviews, yes, many of them turn out positive. But is that surprising? We're not talking about games here. We review many major products from many major brands that put major money into making sure their products are decent. We call out things that need to be called out but don't see much point in beating a company with a hammer unless they really deserve it. Instead, we strive to be objective, pointing out what they do well as well as what they could improve on.

    And for what it's worth, a "best of" article IS NOT a review. A review is for a single product, otherwise it's a round-up. At least know what you're talking about.

    I think what threw me off was thumbnail which i thought looks like a stock photo from something like gettyimages. That and the big microphone and small ear piece, it looked like an office headset or something from 2001 that a gamer would use.

    Disagree, his post was spot on, and it is a real deceptive practice in this industry. I mean the entire industry as a whole has become borderline corrupt. Its no longer a secret that to get access to "news" they need to maintain good relationships, however that requires being dishonest in your criticism and reviews.

    Odd isnt it i have never seen a game review like under 3/10, must be a fantasy world to believe all games are between 7 and 10 out of ten eh?>

    Shill article or not, the pic with the two ugly Chinese kids is off putting enough. Makes me question who is really behind the brand.
