Best headset to use for Xbox 360?

It’s no secret the headset Xbox provides you with when buying a console is , well… Complete crap. Some I’ve taken perfect care of and they still manage to break at some point, or stop working altogether. They’re flimsy and to be honest, the quality of sound is cheap and disappointing. However, it’s basically free when you buy a console or a messenger kit so you can’t really complain too much.

I dont think they are too bad

Intentions4871d ago

Lol yeah they are not even that bad.

The author is stupid; "the quality of sound is cheap and disappointing" - It's only for voice.. so.. yeah.

Personally I've only been through 2 headsets (which I got for free), 1 broke, when i stepped on it and the other; which i'm using right now, it came with the slim.

Never had any problems with it, or had them break on me. Getting a free headset with the 360 is a nice bonus imo. Although I prefer my SB TacticSigma 360 headset. Good price, great build quality and amazing sound.

If you can't get that I'd recommend Steelseries and the new Sennheiser headset over Turtle Beach and Tritton (both of which have low build and sound quality imo).

I was surprised when i got a free headset and it isnt that bad.

I got the Turtle Beach X12 for my PS3. They work great. All i had to do to get the microphone to work on the PS3 is get a small usb sound card and the mic works great too. Was only like 4 or 5 dollars on amazon. That price was WAY cheaper than trying to get those totally usb PX21's which i hear have a crappy mic on them anyway.

They make me play so much better. I almost can't play without them now. They seem pretty sturdy and the sound quality is amazing.

BeaArthur4871d ago

I like my PX21's. A very reasonable price and they work with both systems.

svoulis4871d ago

I can't really understand the author writing this article when they actually haven't tried the other headsets and just went by user reviews.

That is like if i rated a video game based of others ratings and didn't actually review the entire game myself...

Anyone else feel that way?

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5438d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905438d ago (Edited 5438d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5438d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5438d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495438d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5438d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5438d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
