Good ~£20 Headset+mic?

[Hicks12]

As title says, anyone recommend a good headset? i currently have one of them logitech headsets like this one

That sit on your ears, they are bad for after about 5/10mins as my ears start hurting because they dig in. Need to get a new one that has good enough mic for chatting on skype etc but as long as its OK and reliable its good , was going to buy the creative fatality(?) headset for &#163;18 at play but missed it >.<.

Thanks

edit: forgot to say it needs to be something that doesnt rest on the ears so the normal headsets that rest ontop and have padded speakers.

I'd recommend the Creative mate, I'm very happy with mine, and only &#163;21.99 on Amazon.....

must of missed amazon xD, saw it on ebuyer for aroudn &#163;20 but couldnt do with the delivery price but free delivery with amazon could make me buy it .
Just found a decent mp3 player that fits my price at dabs(&#163;25) but its not free delivery there >.<.

Thanks.

You could try the PCWorld price match with the Creative Fatal1ty's.

Damn mith, if only i posted this yesturday xD as i bought spore for &#163;30 from them as i was in a rush for work(damn traffic) and they always piss about with price matching and its been a week now .
That is a great idea anyways, will go down tomorrow perhaps. Shame they dont have the SanDisk 2GB Sansa Clip MP3 cos then i could pricematch dabs xD.

edit: typical, pcworld dont have it instock as plymouth/exeter/bristol are all out of stock i guess ill buy from amazon xD.

Not meaning to derail your thread here mate, but what do you think of Spore so far?

[Hicks12]

well ive been off it for ther past few days as i jsut got titan quest , its good but i dont know why. Ive spent many hours on there and yet dont have a real feel of "this is amazing" its more of " ill do this for 5misn then go, but ill be here for ages xD", the time its better is at the space stage then it can get good its just annoying that you can fit your space ship with weapons in the creator(its just for looks, you buy set weapons ingame). Its much like a bigger version of sims, its better graphically and its more interactive because you get to control your characters.
It is a great game to spend time in and i would recommend it if you are lost for games at this time, i bought spore just to tide me over til crysis warhead is released but titan quest was ordered for lan with my mates.

I really depends if you like sims though, i didnt but this is a bigger scale with space etc so its better .

Hope this helped a bit.

I got an amazing quality analogue headset with a metallic flexible mic, very good quality headset (very close to my speakers which are great) for only &#163;2.50... from home-bargains none the less

[mediaboy]

Any chance of a link to them richie?

I be in the market for headphones.

[richieuk]

When I'm home tomorrow, I'll find out what they're called mate

Homebargains however is a cheapo store that is in Wolverhampton and at least manchester (as someone from manchester reccommended me some stuff from there)

I'll try and get you a pic too

I can suggest a set not to get... the Creative HS 600. The damn speakers are out of balance at certain volume levels, but not others, so one side is often louder than the other unless you get the dial right on the sweet spot.

I be in the market for headphones.

These Genius HS-04U USB Dolby Gaming Headphones (with 3D Sound) look good for the price (£22.92):

Ok, i popped to home bargains yesterday and got you a picture of them in all their glory, they aren't massive ones like the genius ones but theycertainly do the trick and would top a bang-for-buck review anyday.
