    Wireless Microsoft Mic

    Before last semester ended, my $20 generic Microsoft mic broke. I've been since using my pair of turtle beaches, and while I love them to death, they just aren't practical when I'm in a dorm surrounded by 100 other guys within 100 feet of me. Carrying that giant thing on my head is just what it is, awkward.

    So I've been scouting out getting a new mic. The crappy $20 ones are getting old, and they're fairly shitty, but I've been eying this piece of machinery:
    http://www.gamestop.com/xbox-360/acc...-headset/93053

    I can get one for $35 from Amazon.


    Has anyone had experience with these? Do they work well?

    Should I bother buying it? Or should I say fuck it, and just play with a massive pair of turtle beaches and give the middle finger to anyone that looks at me weird.

    I can vouche for it. You also won't find anything else similarly priced that works properly. Mine did fine when I had it, it only ended up suffering from furniture legs.


    Real power comes from the man next to you and is built on the foundations of brotherhood and unity. There is no such thing as a one man army.

    Wireless TurtleBeaches FTW. I never used that mic but from what I heard on mics like that is they pick up random noises pretty bad. Much like a turtle beach I guess. I would stick to a turtlebeach, I mean mine has like a 12 speaker surround sound built it. lol I'll take looking like a dork for that, or you could wear them like a DJ. lol

    This is precisely why I play using a (literally) $10 headset, even though I have perfectly good turtle beaches here.

    So I've been scouting out getting a new mic. The crappy $20 ones are getting old, and they're fairly shitty, but I've been eying this piece of machinery:
