I got a 360 last night. I am very impressed, immersed, and wowed. Now if I only had Market Place points!

All I need to do is get a new headset (the one outta the box gives my friends an echo on their end and the thing is total crap to begin with) and relax because I'm treating like a million dollar vase. Can't really let it go red circle or brick on me, so I'm holding my breath everytime I use it....

Anyone know of a good, economy headset?

the newer 360s since around March have been really solid. I wouldnt worry.. there is still many people going around saying that the 360s are still bricking all the time, but it isnt true.

My 360 is second generation and works like a charm. Your headset problems might be related to your NAT. Oddly, many troubles just go away if you hook up your console to the net via the wireless add-on instead of hard-wiring it. o0 Don't buy the Nikko Intercooler! I besiege you! My 360 sees a lot of abuse (playing for days on end without powering down) and happily eats it up and chews it out. Have fun, use it like you would any old console. Oh, keep the thing horizontal, many 360's loose azimuth when vertical, scratching or shattering the disk inside. Make sure it is able to breathe in all directions aswell, and keep it in a shaded area. Have fun, dude!

Thanks Falelorn, that will put me at easy a little. Yeah Nomad, I played H2 and the mic was extreme crap all night. It echoed everyone in the pre-game lobby when ever they talked and sound coming out of the ear piece was horrible quality.

Stri sounds like he has a good suggestion. I had a module go bad and bought a 180/360 microsoft set that has the inline volume control and they were terrible-faint sounding. Neksone has a thread in Halo-comp. not sure how budget minded it is though. Pms Em uses some type of headphone she says kick, might check with her too. Good luck.......man I'm feelin left out! :)
