Well, I'm assuming you want over-ear, but Amazon has a lightning deal today on a pair of Sennheiser CX 880. They list for $169, Amazon sells them for $109, and the lightning deal can end up bringing them down a LOT lower. It depends, sometimes they knock a few bucks off, other times it can be up to 60% off. The deal begins in a bout 40 minutes. (this is if you are in the US.)
Hello Hellcat-: The best headphone for you under $100 is going to depend heavily on for what you are using them. Please take a moment to review the Headphone FAQ sticky at the top of the Audio/Video forum. If you have additional questions please come back and I or another user can provide further assistance. Best of luck finding the right headphones for you! Boz

Best of luck finding the right headphones for you! Boz I will be using them for travel mainly but also at home occasionally too. However I am now stuck between earbuds(Sennheiser CX 300-II )or headphones (Sennheiser HD205-II) I guess portability will be the main advantage with the earbuds but I do see people often wearing headphones on the train so It could easily work.

If it's between those two I'd go with the CX 300's. The portability benefits are going to outweigh minor sound quality improvements, if any, from the HD205's. Happy gaming, Boz

Happy gaming, Boz Cheers for the advice, My concerns with the CX 300 include the cords not being equal (so you can wrap them around your head but I never do that) ,the fact my previous sony earbuds had a tendency to fall out when I was walking or need adjustment and I have read reviews that claim the wires rubbing leading to sound distortion.

You might want to consider the Sennheiser adidas PMX 680 or 680i if you're concerned about noise from the cord. It's way under your budget, too, so you can go get a pizza afterwards! Happy gaming, Boz
