Chad's Crappy Corner and another gadget for his theme for March.

Chad emailed our loyal (and much appreciated) Patreon supporters and asked them to pick a March, 2016 theme of the month they would like to see. They voted and picked crappy gaming gadgets. And this week's (crappy?) gaming gadget is the Hyperkin ComRad Gaming Audio Helmet Headset

Here's what Amazon says about the Hyperkin ComRad Gaming Audio Helmet Headset.

Whether you are saving the world, the universe, or merely showing off to your friends, the ComRad Gaming Audio Helmet will provide you an audio experience that makes you feel like you are truly in the game. Communicate with your friends online with the detachable microphone, or use it to verbally assert your dominance against your opponents. It was $38.17 and Amazon Prime as of 3/22/16

 

And Chad's take? Although this looked impressive and came with three different cameo covers, it failed in one important area. Chad cannot get it work at all! He tried it several times and ended by saying it's too bad you can't minus stars on Amazon because this device was a definite 'do not buy'.

 

No longer on Amazon.
