yes, there is no doubt that headphones for a game in stereo allows for
the best experience, unless you are into getting bone rattling bass out of
your games.
I considered doing true surround sound for rail racer, but in asking
around it seemed very few gamers out there have dolby 5.1 setups, and even
fewer surround headphones. I have a set of medusa surround headphones,
and for the main stream games it works with, it is awesome, but I doubt
many accessible gamers will be willing to shell out $120 for a set of
headphones just for a gee whiz factor.

Hi Charles,
Thanks, but that makes me feel a bit guilty. One of the things I imagined
when creating the Genesis 3D engine was a full virtual reality in 3d. Not
just 3d audio, but an actual 3d environment as well. Personally, from my
tests the best way to get the full experience is by using headphones, and
if you have a set of 3d headphones the experience is even better. So I
didn't really design the engine with speakers in mind although that
option is still available of course. Imagine my future games like Tomb
Hunter II etc sounding like Shades of Doom with, but in a true 3d
environment as well.
I guess what I am saying is it is hard to really do what the sighted game
companies are doing such as 3d FPS style games and stick to a simple
stereo format like MOTA uses. With MOTA that is fine since there is only
really left and right to deal with. In other games you will have left,
right, foward, backward, up, and down to deal with. That's considerably
more to think about and a lot more to listen to. Also trickier to figure
out as well.

wear a headset to play it well. Hopefully, this trend will continue,
because I have always very much preferred using speakers rather than
wearing a headset when I play.
