Im sure its been asked, but i need to get a decent setup, i have absolutely no idea of whats out there or whats any good.

I got a cheapo stick in ur ear job much like a hands free phone thing , but its total pants and keep falling out my ear lol, i wasnt too arsd before but now im getting into the team games so i guess i will have to get a fairly good un.

What do you guys use or recommend?

It depends if you want full headset or just Mic.
Turtle Beach are exellent value and very good sound. You can get better quality but the price goes up too.
I have a good sound system at home so I can get all the different noises in surround such as footsteps etc so I just use the sony mic. Enables me to hear the missus too.
If this doesn't bother you Turtle beach are a only a bit more than the sony mic but miles better quality. (quite emersive with headphones too).
The sony mic is JUST for converstation.

Oh man now its all getting complicated.

Ok i have surround sound which i pretty much always have on, i really dont want any wires anywhere around my beer drinking area, dont give a sht if i can hear the missus or not but i do want a half decent set.

The turtles do look good i must admit, havent seen the sony thing yet but it would be pointless having massive headset and surround sound

Well your best bet would be to get wireless headset although they cost a bit more.

Yeah,

Cheers for the info though...


The sony one looks exactly the same as the one ive got so it owuld prolly fall out my ear as well.

Im thinking somethin like the old walkman style things you used to get or failing that i would have to get a full on headset and try and keep one of them off my earole!!!

I say buy the sony. Should be able to get one for £25 and it doesn't fall out.

karlmeurs

is this a good headset:

Sony Bluetooth Headset PS3

???

karlmeurs

for cod mw2?

Skuh

It is average, perfectly good for hearing team mates talk. Nothing more.
Better than cheap usb ones but not a patch on TB or other gaming headsets

pantstofry

if this is sorta like the xbox one then what skuh said. if you're looking for a real good headset just get like the $30 TBs. i have the $60 ones, a bit better but still you can hear footsteps, that's crucial in MW2. I wouldn't be able to go back to a regular headset if this one broke.

I use the TB x31 which for some reason are 25 bucks cheaper from walmart online than anywhere else

What kind of headset are you looking for?

One to talk with your friends and teammates, or one to hear game audio from?

I assumed since he said "for cod mw2" he meant game audio... that's why i recommended TB's

or Trittons i hear are good as well, they're a bit more expensive but w/e

PX-21s are very good for the price, $79.99 at Best Buy. There are a lot better headsets out there but most are $200>.

The sony headset is no good for sitrep pro. It does not work with game audio. Just In game speak.
You need gaming headset. See suggestions above.

pantstofry

i have Turtle Beach X11's that work incredibly and they were $40 at Best Buy. I think they have a PS3 version as well.

oneinchwunda

Steelseries Siberia (V2) for console.

ok thanks all!
i think i'm going buy a good headset

thanks!

pantstofry

I'd use steelseries for a PC, but otherwise a bit too expensive for me liking

oneinchwunda

I'd use Sennheiser for a PC.

I've got the Triton AX pro's, and I must say, what a huge difference. Good headsets give you an immense advantage, specially in S&D or FFA. The triton is quite expensive but it's worth every penny !
