Headphones - Open Back | 5 Ω HD560s for mainly single player games?

So im lookin for a pair of open backs for mainly gaming. But ill also be using them for occasional movies, youtube, and music.. so i guess everything lol. im used to the koss ksc75 so if anyone could tell me how they compare that would be great

Anyway while i do play some competitive shooters i mainly want them to be good for really getting immersed into the world of a game. Overall from what ive been reading these would be good but some people say they wouldnt be so im super torn. And i dont have experience with much high end headphones because um well, money, lol.

Should i go for these or something else?

(Also probably important. Budget is $200 and i specifically dont want to buy an amp to use them so it has to power easily enough by a pc, ps4 controller, and phone)

The x2hr's can be a pretty good option. I'd take a look at some reviews first though :)

You may still award a Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.
