Hello,

I apologize if this is not the correct forums.

I am looking to purchase a USB gaming headset that I will use on both PC and PS3. I would like to get some advice on this as I already purchased one that I was not satisfied with. I purchased the Sound Blaster Tactics Alpha, and the issue I had with it is that on the PC, the mic's output is extremely feint even when placed next to my mouth, the headset gets fairly warm quickly, and while it can be detected by the PS3, it cannot be used at all.

My price range is preferably under $100, and max of $150.

Thank you,
TJL

I haven't looked too much into headset/mic combos, but I did read some favorable reviews of the Steelseries Siberia V2 headset. Should be some good deals floating around the net as well

Thank you for the suggestion. I took a look and only one of the models is a Xbox compatible (so possibly PS3), but it's not as well received as the other models.
