PC Microphones/Headsets

I'm currently working on a "Let's Play" and my audio commentary has hit a bit of a snag. I'm looking to buy a decent PC Microphone or Headset, but I'm not sure what to look for as far as quality goes. Any help?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I just picked up a Plantronics headset for about $30 at Wal-Mart that was designed for Skype. The USB adapter makes things sound kinda fuzzy on both ends, but it works perfectly without it.



How ya doing, buddy?

Headsets are complete garbage/a scam, get a real mic (or, real headphones).

I unfortunately don't know much about mics so I can't help you there.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you could elaborate, I'd appreciate it. I just need a mic, and headsets seem easiest since I don't have to worry about positioning, at least from what I know. But my lack of knowledge is why I'm asking, so if you could, again, elaborate... it'd be awesome.

I use the headset that I bought for my cell phone. It uses one of the mini-jacks, which I thankfully happen to have a little converter for. I use it when I talk to my girlfriend on Skype and she never has a problem with the audio quality, nor does anyone on TF2. It's wired, so there's no battery concerns, and it's made for being used with a cell phone, so it's pretty comfortable.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I got one from EB Games for $20 about two years that I was 100% happy with until I broke it, not sure if it's still in stock but it was able to plug into a Xbox, PS2, or PC so it was amazingly handy, I think I still have the converter thing unruined.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
