    You could go out and buy a pair of expensive Logitech headphones or you could just buy a really good pair of earbuds and a desktop mic. Its cheaper, looks less stupid, and can be used for lots of purposes.

    Hears what i have:
    Sennheiser MX500 http://www.levenly.com/photo/standard/mx500white.jpg
    Trust MC200 Premium http://www.spcnet.be/images/matos/mc200.jpg
    Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic http://www.intellect.uk.com/images/SBXFI.jpg


    The earphones are damn amazing. They won loads of awards from reputable magazines like Stuff and T3. The mic transmits perfectly over TS and Vent.

    Don't waste your money on a really expensive pair!

        If your looking for a cheap but durable alternative I really have to recomend the Logitech Precision Gaming Headset not much more than you'd pay for something from a retailer and very durable I used to get through a headset every three months but I've had this one since new year and it hasn't set a foot wrong.

        Plus your ears don't get hot because of the open design, great value for money so far.

            Oh also, try not to get a pair that use USB. If you forget to plug them in before you start the game, you're going to have to turn off the game, plug em in, then boot up the game again. This gets VERY annoying, especially when you just get on a server and you forgot to plug in your headset and mic.

            Hope that helps.

                      Mate that is cheap!
                      I paid about £60 for my ones and even that is cheap when you consider that they take the place of speakers totally.
                      Honestly, once you've tried them, you won't want to go back to speakers :)
