[quote name='ImmortalfWd']The Madcatz one is crap, sure it might sound alright for you, but it picks up so much background noise that it will possibly annoy people you're playing with. When I used to play PGR2 I would get bitched at because the in game music would come through, even though I had the damn surround system turned way low.
I ended up getting the Halo 2 headset and have never looked back. The noise filter on it is great, I can listen to surround sound as loud as I want and it doesn't pick up the background noise.[/quote]
You beat me to it.
That's exactly right. You may think everything is ok with the MadCatz $5 POS one, but all it does is give others static and echoing.
I know we're all cheapasses here, but there's a REASON its only $5.
