In the market for a headset

[Shaun421]

I haven't heard any of the new elite Xbox's having any RRoD problems. If you are cheaping out and buying a used one (like i did), just do your research and make sure the one you purchase doesn't have the chipsets that caused the RRoD.

As far as headsets go. Don't. If you don't normally wear headphones, and if you say its uncomfortable to wear headphones with glasses (like me), then just get a decent stick mic, and rock your speakers. I've been using a creative labs desk mic I got back in like 96. neer had any complaints about quality.

Besides, with a stick mic and speakers it makes it easier to do quick cheap sound drops on teamspeak (or whatever the kids use nowadays).

I'm also looking for a new headset.. I seem to lose 1 every year.

In terms of Xbox vs PS3.

Personally, I own an Xbox. As was stated previously, way more people online.
I use it for Netflix and I can use it for other things like Zune and Hulu and ESPN if i wanted to.

It doesn't have a blue-ray, but whatever. Get an elite system if you can afford it, but if you get a used one try to be kind to the gamestop or walmart sales person so that they get you the Newest older system they have.

Other than blue-ray, the only other difference I see between the two systems is price tag. I think PS3 is still significantly more expensive, but I could be lying.

I've had my white xbox for close to 2.5 years now and it hasn't red ringed on me yet (knock on wood).

Most of the games are similar other than the couple exclusives.

I heard that PS3 online sucks, in order for it to be good you have to go "premium" or some such nonsense. Personally, I am ok spending $40 a year on xbox live.

i have a 360 and ps3. i use the ps3 for all my media streaming, because I like the ps3 media remote better. The xbox one is IR, and I don't have good line of sight to my console, so it doesn't work half the time.

All my games I get on the xbox though, unless it is a ps3 exclusive, like gow3, infamous, or uncharted.

ps3 online doesn't even come close to xbox. kinect is cooler than move. the new
xbox's are solid.

i like installing my xbox games to the hard drive, so i don't have to listen to the dvd spinning.

game and system patches seem to take a lot longer on ps3. its pretty annoying.

i vote xbox

I'll add you the next time I'm at my girlfriend's place. I keep my PS3 there.

P.S. good choice of system. Superior in almost every way to 360.
