Hey, does anyone have any suggestions for a headset I should get for use while playing games on my computer.
some things I am looking for are:
-sound cancelation
-good sound quality
-decently long cord/wireless
-and reduced background noise detection for the mic

A few of my friends have recommended getting a turtle beach headset, which I have had 3 different ones and all have broken within the first 6 months, so I would rather not get another one. I have also heard RAZER Tech makes quality Headsets but I haven't really looked into them much.
so if anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

-Thanks

I would say the Astro A50's.

I'm pretty sure they are universal.

If you have enough for the A50, you could get the much better Sennheiser PC360 if you want an integrated mic. If you want to spend less but still get better quality than the Astros, the Audio Technica AD700 with a Modmic is the way to go.

Mate just get these Steelseries Siberia V2

I've had those for a while now and they are way better than Turtle Beach or Astros, i've had Turtle Beach for about year and i can say that Steelseries is better.

Also here is a review of this headset

I reckon Astro A40's are the best Gaming Headset for any platform
