So it was no big deal that PS3 didn't come with one but now that Xbox One may not come with one it's shite like "Wow!" "ZOMG!"


It was most certainly a big deal, as it dampened the quality of the online environment. Not from an infrastructural standpoint, but in terms of the community.

Sony obviously realized this and is making a correction. It's surprising, however, that Microsoft would diminish one of the features that is so integral to the XBL community.

Just the other day, you, ouaron, and a bunch of others were saying it's stpuid to use the past to justify the future when we were talking about how far behind PSN is on this gen and now it's OK since this one favors Sony.

I just want some consistency.

I honestly don't know anyone that uses that cheap piece of crap that comes with Xbox. It won't keep people from getting a headset just like it didn't for PS3.

I brought that up to point out the obvious double standard here

Based on our lack of outrage fron PS3 not coming with a mic.

Who cares if either come with headsets.

I actually prefer them not to. I can buy a really nice one and hopefully it means less stupid kids on the airwaves.

And this is from a PS fanboy

this.

why would I want them to throw in a cheap $20 mic that I won't ever use anyhow?

that's $20 I can spend on a quality mic.

another scenario where being a cheap arse doesn't pay

it's like a dealership putting rims from AutoZone on a Beemer then trying to justify that being apart of the price.

I agree with alot of your comments and disagree with just as many.

The poor comments are pretty lame. Just because you have the money doesn't mean you have to spend it. There are alot of crappy games I have bought for a few bucks that I would never buy new at 60. Buying used doesn't make you poor, just like using an in box headset doesn't. Some people aren't hardcore enough to buy tritons, TBs or Astros. Doesn't make them cheap though.

I understand being a college student or someone straight out of college or someone with a family being on a budget and not going full out financially for gaming. nothing wrong with that.

I want born with a silver spoon in my mouth believe me

I'm just exaggerating

That's good to know.

I do plan on purchasing a new headset soon.

I've had triton ax pros for a few years and loved them but the mic has crapped out and a new mic is not available.

I haven't decided what I want yet

-Astro a40
-Astro a50
-triton ax pros
-TB Sevens
-TB 500 something's.

I'm gonna keep using my Tritons until the next gen, they are only a year old and still in good shape.

Im looking for Astros next time around too. Just wish you didn't have to buy the mix amp on top of an expensive headset

I have those as well. I have had too many issues with them to go back. It's even worse now that Mad Catz owns them knowing that Mad Catz makes cheap shite.

Yeah they have links to replacement mica but never available in America. Always France, England, or Germany.
