Talk:Xbox 360 Wireless Headset

- This is, however, an official Xbox 360 branded product JayKeaton 05:04, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

The link to the article about problems with the wireless headset doesn't work. Can someone supply another one?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Praxis (talk • contribs).
Microsoft has acknowledged that there are problems with some headsets- http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/12436/Microsoft-Responds-to-Xbox-360-Wireless-Headset-Issues/ Someone should update the info on the main page and link it to the source I gave, I would try to do so but I am not very experienced with it.
- Microsoft hasn't actually divulged any information on the issue to the public. As stated on the main page, Microsoft service centre staff will not offer any information on what the issue is or how to remedy it. They will only offer to replace the item. I have suffered this problem and called the service centre, and spoke to 3 staff members who all offered alternate explanaions. One told me a patch was coming out to fix the problem (which was NOT the case -he lied-), another told me that I must replace it at the store before I am eligible for any further help (which I did), and the third told me that it is a design compatibility problem with early model Xbox 360 controllers. Sorry for the long post, hope this helps people.
- Does the headset work with original Xbox Live games when they are played on the 360? It's not working for and seeing as this page doesn't mention issues like this I am guessing it does in fact work with original games JayKeaton 10:53, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

- Yes, it works with old games on the 360. I used it last night while I was playing Halo 2.
[edit] Any objections to removing 'opinion' material?
- It seems like the 'poor build quality' comment is somewhat out of line. While the item isn't military specification, it hardly seems flimsy and the user who keeps asserting these issues has a history of adding negative contributions to Xbox 360 related articles. Since the statement is readily recognisable as one of opinion and not of fact, I propose a vote to remove the 'build quality' statement from the initial paragraph (though it may be relegated to a small section regarding general issues, since there *was* talk from official sources regarding the audio drop out issues for some users that was addressed in a recent firmware update).
I was originally proposing a vote... but due to the low eye-traffic here that may not be appropriate. I'm going to wait an hour or two to see if anyone has any objections to removing those statements, and then I'll go ahead and deal with them (unless anyone has any objections).
