Is it released now? That would be pretty hot. I hate the wire coming down from the controller.

No - I don't trust buying it.

Because I cannot see what it looks like.

LOL, it's probably because they don't have box art for it yet.

The bad thing about it is, the price. It will be retailed at $60, which is quite a bit for a headset...

Thats a pretty decent price only I have 2 wired headsets at the moment. I'll probably still get one though because wireless feels much better IMO.

sell the 2 wired ones. £5 each, then its only £16 which is a hell of a lot more agreeable price!

No chance one is brand new has not even had the cable tie taken off it or put on anyones head. Plus there maybe a 2 player game which me and the missus want to play and since I have 2 gamertags on my 360 I need 2 headsets for them times. If I was to sell one it would be at the very least £10 because I got it out of that pesky packaging for them too :).

ok, sell one (the older one) when it comes out, nov 11 i think (randomly).

the headset itself looks really cool (+ it shows people on vision cam that your rich-enouhg to affored a wireless headset!!! lol

I will be getting this. I have been video chatting with Outlaw and carrying the controller round is annoying.

Also it doesn't come with a bluetooth adapter. What do you think is the receiver for the wireless controllers? Tis all built in the 360. 360 doesn't use bluetooth. It uses it's own wireless technology. That's why to use all 360 wireless peripherals with your PC you have to buy the wireless dongle.

Blaze Lord

The Bluetooth headset is a third party solution that's been out for a while, I think.

How does the one you got for your Xbox1 work? You sure you can't use it for your 360?

Course he can. He just needs to buy a xbox to USB converter.

EDIT: Would be stupid though. White & Black buttons....

Blaze Lord

But.. He's talking about a headset, not a controller?

Tobes
19/Oct/06, 02:55 AM
ahh crap yeh. Then I have no idea how it will work lol

Blaze Lord
19/Oct/06, 05:20 AM
If it has it's own mute/volume module that was made to fit only the Xbox1 controller, then it won't work at all. But if it plugs into the one that comes with the Xbox1's official headset, then presumably he'd be able to use it with his 360- just without volume control and mute.

hi m8 it wont work with the new 360 controller ms are not that stupid this is why they got so much dosh !

Blaze Lord
19/Oct/06, 05:37 PM
Well, non-wireless headsets for the Xbox1 do work with the 360, just without the volume control. That's why I'm asking.
