But when i dont want to bother people or when i dont want them to know what im doing I turn off the speakers

Well, for me it depends on what is on TV and what I'm about to play. If there is somthing I liek on TV then I'll play my game without earphones unless I need to use Vent or Teamspeak. But like Counter Strike Source I almost always wear my headphones since I can tell easier when people are sneaking up on me and whatnot. But for say Guild Wars or Company of Heros I stick with my computer speakers.
I use headphones because they give me better sound quality, plus I do not disturb anyone.

However, when I'm by myself in my room, I don't use them because headphones generally do not offer 5.1 surround sound. :) I've died before in Counter Strike because I was wearing stereo headphones and couldn't hear that my opponent was behind me.
I used to headphones only when I'm traveling with my DS, until I realized it sounds so much better when they are in. Now I'm almost always using headphones when playing DS, even if I'm home alone.
I use headphones as often as I can. I hate disturbing my neighbors and by blocking out most of the outside noise I feel more emersed in the game.
I only ever vent or skype with people that I know... and about 90% of the time that I'm playing a multiplayer game, I'm playing it with people that I know XDQuote:

I use headphones with my DS Lite. It makes Electroplankton shine.
A word of advice, don't try to save money on headphones. Trust me, if you buy a good pair you will see and hear how paying the extra $$$ is well worth it.
I use head phones a lot as I live next to an Old Persons Home and they complain, its much cheaper than soundproofing your room, though that would be quite cool. Also in games such as resi and games which are centered around sound (guitar hero!) they really increase the experience.
