Hi, I have a very quick question to ask you...
Is it worth getting a Cloud II over the original, considering that I am only a casual gamer?

The cloud II just has a few extra features to the original, I would say it would be worth the extra cash. The original is still great though, I use it.

What extra features it does have, apart from surround sound?

It has a better volume controler and runs off USB which is a little more convenient.

Heres a review of it on this site.
 
based on what i've heard the cloud II is garbage and has rather major issues associated with it. not too long ago there was a user here who bought one and complained he had the same issues seen in reviews online so ended up returning them.

the cloud I would be a better choice if you went that route.

It's tried and true I guess, I just looked at the amazon reviews and while it has 4.1 stars there is a significant amount that ae below 3.
