I've been reading these reviews on how horriable PS2 USB headsets break.

I own the above headset. It works great, and works on my PS2 and my PC as well. It is very comfortable. This headset is "vulnurable" to miss-treatment. If you are a sloppy pig and yank your headset around all the time, step on it, toss it across the room. Then yes your headset will become non-functional after a few months. The cord on the headset is very thin. Most peoples headsets break because they yank on the cord a lot, if it gets tangled or otherwise. You just have to be carefull with it. Take care of it. Untangle it slowly, hook it up, and play normal. When you are done, make sure you take it off and just lay it down where nothing might happen to it. Just take care of your headset. One of the #1 things to watch out for is, how you are moving around when you have the headset on. If you are in a wheely chair and you roll over the cord, and then stand up, you could damage the headset by yanking on it like that. Make sure you are not stepping on the cord before you stand up. If you just take care of your headset and don't physically break the thing, it will last forever. These don't mysteriously break. They break from users actually breaking them. |

I would have to agree with nikon on this one. I have the Logitech USB headset and its been great for me!! Just handle it with care its a very thin cord that connects to the actual headset and seems like with a big tug it would snap into like a pringle chip. With this in mind and the amount of money u spent on it..... taking the time to care for this product would be the ideal thing too do. I bought mine at gamestop used for $15 dollars, i couldnt see spending 40 dollars on it no way lol | |||

Any USB headset will work on the PS2. I know a friend of mine who had a spare Plantronics USB headset lying around and saved himself a cool $30.

One last tip: Do not use your PS2 headset as a grappling hook.
EDIT: Wait, if its already broken, then you can use it as a grappling hook. EDIT#2: WARNING ps2 headset cannot support human weight |

Yah i had got the microphone from gamestop used. This was the first one by logitech, im guessing the "socom" microphone.I saw a better one with a mute button and volume dial at target. I bought it of course, its made by logitech also this one has the playstation logo on the earphone and playstation 2 written on the usb box. Very Nice! | |||

The thing I like about it most, is that it is comfortable. It's big poofy cushion on the ear piece makes wearing it for hours..NO PROBLEM. Headsets/headphones tend to cause your earlobe to start to get sore after a while. But this one has a nice cushion on it, its really commfy. Also notice the part that grips the other side of your head, is made of a nice rubbery material. |
