3 out of 5 stars The Microsoft headset has its negatives and its positives. Is it worth buying?   August 13, 2006

The xbox live headset is an essential piece of equiptment for any gamer who has a gold subscription for xbox live. Using a headset enables you to taunt other players, discuss strategies and more. It also provides ALOT of fun for just talking with friends. The headset improves xbox live gaming by about 5x. This headset unlike some others provides a muteing button and volume control. You can also adjust the speaker to where it feels comfortable. The headset provides clear speech to your ears. However, there are some problems.

There have been tons of cases of headsets breaking because of there weak structure. Wires come lose in and cause the headset to create a major crackling noise to other players and you will not be able to hear them. Other cases which hae happened have been more drastic. The headset will basicly cut of what people are saying to you meaning you will not be able to hear anyone, however they can hear you. This causes alot of annoyance. I am on my third headset.

The headset is definitly worth the buy, at least until some better headsets arive on the market.



5 out of 5 stars Well worth it.   September 9, 2006

The Xbox 360 headset is well worth the money in my opinion and my headset has lasted for ages!! You can talk to enimies, discus team strategy, taunt people and generally have a good old chat with a friend who happens to be online at the same time as you. I used to keep getting killed by hidden dangers, now I can alert other people of these dangers and likewise they can alert me. If you thought your consol was good, it just got better. Having a headset adds a whole new dimension to your gaming experience or atleast, it did for me. This is a great buy. If you want to get more out of your Xbox 360, this would make a very good start! One thing I should mention, the headset only plays voice through the ear-peice, normal game sound comes through the TV still.


4 out of 5 stars Hasn't put a foot wrong for me.   April 24, 2007

As the title says, this hasn' put a foot wrong with me up to now (5 month in, using it for atleast an hour every day.)

It doesn't crackle, or stop working for no apparent reason. It does feel flimsy I admit, and isn't worth the price. It came free with my X Box bundle so I didn't have that problem however.

If you're into playing Live, this is a must. It adds a whole other dimension to the gameplay and makes the whole experience a million times better. Especially for Online shooters, this is a must.



4 out of 5 stars Performs the job pretty well   March 6, 2006

This is the headset currently provided with the premium bundled version of the Xbox 360 console. Designed for voice communication within Xbox Live (Microsoft's *EXCELLENT* subscription based multiplayer service) - it allows player communication within ALL games through the 'dashboard' interface.

Although the headset is not required in order to use Xbox Live (in fact, as a parent you can disable voice communication) it greatly enhances the multi-player experience. Key features:

*Communicate and work with other players as a team
*Exchange friendly banter with opponents
*Mute 'undesirable' players
*Communicate with friends while you play different games
*Setup a 'conference' style chat with a group of friends (a feature I use while watching sporting events on TV!)

The unit is light, can be worn on your left of right ear - it's reasonably comfortable, although the 'follicly challenged' larger headed individual may find it a bit 'snug'. Good quality, but loses a mark because I believe the RRP doesn't represent the greatest value. (I would imagine that there are good OEM versions available for less).

Note that the Xbox 360 headset is NOT backwardly compatible with the original Xbox console and vice versa.
