Well I have no experience with the Fidelios, but I don't see why not? They're pretty nice headphones and (i think) you can equalize your way out of any problem with sound levels on a game.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

Considering gaming headsets have inferior sound to proper headphones most of the time, you're fine.

Got the X2 Fidelios myself. I'd say the soundstage is pretty excellent. They're really comfy to use for extended periods of use as well.

What about the imaging? Is it accurate?

If you're talking about CS:GO.  It's sound design is so fucked up anyway it doesn't matter.

What about games that have a decent sound design? Ill be able to pinpoint where sonds are coming from?

It has a very wide sound stage so panned audio should have a distinct location, yes.
