Awesomenauts!
Heard about Awesomenauts from the Gamers with Jobs podcast a couple of weeks ago. Decided to check it out on PSN.

Incase Sonic Over Ear Headphones has great quality, priced PHP 8,990.00
Here’s a little gem that may have gone unnoticed. For those familiar with everything 3rd party Apple, Incase isn’t known for making audio accessories.
