Checking back in about the DT 900 Pro X's I picked up last June.
They have been amazing for gaming. Every game I have thrown at them sounds and feels amazing. The soundstage, the imaging, the bass, the fun. It's all there. It's everything I could have hoped for. I can't imagine how anything above these headphones would not suffer greatly from diminishing returns. 3D Audio is especially fantastic with it. I do not have the "missing rear" that plagued the DT 880s for me.
The true test, of course, is Counter-Strike and thanks to the timely release of Counter-Strike 2, I've had dozens upon dozens of hours of trying these headphones out in many situations that require very precise sound queues, in both moments of silence and chaos. These cans are amazing at it all. In fact, they've introduced an extra layer of enjoyment in CS2: players in casual complain about other players who "must" be wallhacking... but I can tell they've just got good headphones too. They're not cheating, they just are paying attention to the sounds. It's been endlessly entertaining to hear a dead player freaking out in voice comms because they haven't clued into this.
