i'll get it...i broke both of my old headsets.

**ShaDovV RyDer** · 08-11-2004

ya well I'll most likely get it cause i was waitin for that wireless headset but its not comin for a few little while and my mike right now has problems gettin the other players voices into the headset so i gotta use speaker...this sounds high quality and a must have for those gamers like me who like to toss the headset at the ground when u get frusturated.

**BananaMan** · 08-11-2004

well i don't think this headset will last very long when you throw it at the ground, or any headset for that matter.

**XboxGamers** · 08-12-2004

Hell that's some sweet!

**BlindSniper** · 08-12-2004

I will definitelty get it, just so I'll be that much cooler with a halo 2 text on the side of it. It'll be a hit with my friends!

**JADE8704** · 08-12-2004

Yall think it's worth $50?

**lllusion** · 08-12-2004

50 dollars holy ****... yes. yes its worth it. :lol:

**l Maximus l** · 08-12-2004

Pretty cool, but, my current headset works fine...especially since I barely use it.

**lax_defense** · 08-12-2004

$50. No. Plain and simple. My other one's not great, but i won't spend 50 for this bunch of nothing.

**Variation-XBA** · 08-12-2004

I'll pass, mine works fine. Plantronics makes very nice mics though

**ShaDovV RyDer** · 08-12-2004

Whoa whoa whoa...fifty ****ing bucks...geez who do these people think they are...this controller might be worth the dough but I doubt its worthy of it.

**ShannonX** · 08-12-2004

i could use a new headset, that looks about as good as any.

**Chewy** · 08-12-2004

I picked up a little ear bud one for a great whopping $8 Canadian (what is that like $0.37 US or something). After a couple of hours your ear starts to get sore, but for $8 I can't complain. As long as people can hear my cries of pain as they kick my ass at Black Arrow I guess it is fine.

**JJaX** · 08-12-2004

I already own a head set...

Im not that fanboy, where I feel the need to buy a head set because it has a halo logo on it.

**MajorTom** · 08-12-2004

I'll probably buy it since I don't have a head set yet. I was planning on buying one with a year of xbox live when halo 2 comes out. I guess I'll probably jsut get one of those and buy the year of live seperately. And just for the record. Anything that says Halo 2 is worth the money.
