you can always go w/ the $5 dollar one. Used to be MadCatz, but I think it's under a different brand name now. Most game stores should have them.

I picked up a cheap one from MadCatz for about $8 Canadian. Everyone says the sound is fine, but after about 1/2 hour it starts to hurt your ear. I say spend the extra couple of bucks and pickup a good one.

I don't care too much about cost I would just like one thats durable. A few days ago, I broke mt second headset, and I don't even use it that much. After my first got busted, I phoned the xbox helpline and they sent me another but I don't know if they'll do it again. How about the halo2 headset, has anyone gotten it?

The plantronics one isn't cheap but it is the best headset you'll find.
