"My bloody headset snapped again."

So I'm thinking of picking up one of those Halo ones, purely because there doesn't appear to be any 'snappable' bits on them, just a complete unit and not a flimsy pathetic clip on effort.

Can anyone confirm this? Otherwise I'll just have to buy another HIGH QUALITY™ Microsoft one.

I'm on my fourth - I'd put it on and give someone a game but I'm slightly drunk and would probably be on my fifth tomorrow.

Can you use any microphone/headset, or does it have to be official?

Game do a headset. £7. Or £4 when bought with anything else in the shop.

If it wasn't for the fact I had to buy a new starter kit today I would probably have gotten one.

I do however plan to search for a high end, call centre type headset. Should be mucho better.

I could have glued mine, if it wasn't for two things:

I had no glue;
The bit that snapped off vanished someplace.

The closest tool to hand was the tie I was wearing earlier! I looked like a cheap-ass Rambo :D

The headset is very comfy indeed - though it does take a bit of adjusting. I still sold mine though, because I usually listen through my headphones instead of speakers, so along with the headset it was impossible to do.

Well I've just realised - my Xbox Live account runs out on New Years Eve, so I can either get a Halo 2 headset,or I can get another Starter Kit and kill two birds with one stone as it were.

Decisions decisions...

Bullett, it goes on your head, not around your azz ;-)

I was thinking about getting a Halo 2 headset myself. They're meant to be really comfortable to wear and all

I might buy one of these babies.

My original Live headset is intact, but after several hours play I find it begins to dig into your ear. I prefer the idea of a bluetooth-esque mobile phone hands free style headset. but that's 30 whole pounds I'll have to shell out. mmmmm

Mine snapped, but in such a way it was easily 'gluable'.

Woot.
