Cheap Headsets

OhThePenguin

I'm just wondering if there are any good cheap headsets available for the Xbox. I was lookin on ebay and there are some very cheap ones, such as these, here. These any good?

If anyone could recommend a good cheap headset that would be awesome. I'm not lookin for turtle beach quality, I just need somethin so I can talk to friends over live.

Thanks

You generally get what you pay for. The particular ones you linked to are exceptionally bad given they cover both your ears yet you'll only hear voice through them (in-game sound will still come from the TV).

I was a bit sceptical about these ones all right, I might just go with the one ear piece ones, I'd like to be able to hear the tv

Looks crap tbh... http://www.xtravision.ie/xbox-360/272994/xbox-360-wired-headset-orb.aspx I'd rather get an official one, the cheap ones tend to be even more uncomfortable!

I'm still tempted to get the MW2 throat mic/ in-ear headphone thing http://www.zavvi.com/games/games-accessories/officially-licensed-modern-warfare-2-xbox-360-throat-mic-communicator-headset-call-of-duty/10066374.html and for only 12.95 (pounds) I'd know which one I'd be choosing :pac:

I got one in xtravision for 6.99 for my kids and it works fine for them.
