When Sony released the Playstation 3 fans waited with baited breath to get their hands on the unit.

Bluetooth, blue ray and internet capabilities made this the must have game system with a price tag to prove it!

One of the fun aspects of gaming is the ability to use ps3 headsets with select games.

In games like Socom, you can talk to your team and issue commands as well as hear comments and updates from team members.

It brings gaming to a whole new interactive level. Below you will find reviews of the two most common types of ps3 headsets.

USB Ps3 Headsets

The first headset games were actually released for the Ps2. The headsets for these games and this system are USB wired headsets; the nice thing is they can be used on either platform.

Logitech is a long time provider of aftermarket peripheral devices for game systems of all kinds, the quality is decent and the price is generally far below official products. This brings us to the Logitech ps3 headsets.

Features

• Adjustable
• Noise cancelling mic
• 10 ft cord
• USB connection compatible with ps2 or ps3
• Several ear piece covers to choose from – leatherette, foam and velvet

Pros

The first thing you will notice about ps3 headsets from Logitech is their incredibly low price. You can pick one up on Amazon for around $20!

Comfort is key when you are talking about playing games for an extended amount of time, and anyone who has played knows how the time can get away from you. Ps3 headsets from Logitech address comfort on three levels.

First is the extremely long 10 ft cord, you will have no problems relaxing on the couch as you play your favorite games.

Next is the size of the headset, you may have encountered those headsets that are set to one size fits all but actually fits no one well? Not an issue with the Logitech, it adjusts up or down to fit most average size heads.

Finally, the earpiece, Logitech gives you the option to change the cover; they include three different types in the packaging.

Bluetooth Ps3 Headsets

Bluetooth technology is changing the way we experience communication, now that technology is expanding to include gaming systems and computers.

Bluetooth ps3 headsets win out over headsets like the one above for freedom and the coolness factor. Some of these ps3 headsets, like the Darklite, look like something out of a sci-fi movie!

Features

• Rechargeable
• 4-6 hour talk time
• USB and AC charger included
• Designed exclusively for gaming

The truth is you can use any Bluetooth headset with your ps3, some are just better than others are, the Darklite was created for gaming and not cell phones therefore more emphasis was placed on comfort. You can play for hours and hardly tell you are wearing a headset.

Overall

Socom, Metal Gear Solid and Call of Duty are just a few of the games you can enjoy with ps3 headsets. Whether you go wireless or USB connection one thing is certain, once you experience game play with a headset you will never go back!
