PS4 won’t support voice chat via existing headsets
The news comes via GameInformer, which received its information directly from Sony. According to the platform holder, existing headsets just won’t work for voice chat on the PS4 – not even the Sony Pulse or official PS3 accessories.
A system update issued sometime after the PS4′s launch will make it compatible with current USB headsets, but existing Bluetooth headsets are not supported at all.
Presumably, new, PS4-friendly first- and third-party headsets will be released at or close to the console’s launch – but that’s no comfort for those who’ve recently splashed out on a new headset that won’t work with their new hardware.
It’s worth noting that the PS4 comes bundled with a mono headset, so you won’t be left with no option for voice chat at all.
The PS4 launches in November.

Urf-HumbleMootI'm sorry but not everyone is a hardcore gamer who needs to be playing with the latest and greatest technology to enjoy it.CartridgeReb *Cough* PC *Cough*
All you console fangirls need to realise they're near enough the same and PC is sounding better and better!
You have your opinion. Others don't want to spend $1,000's of a computer.
"$1000's of a computer."
I think your parents need to spend a couple thousand dollars on an English tutor for you.
Anyways here's how it is.
Smart/rich gamers are willing to save up/spend money for a decent/high end PC because PCs are obviously better, but more expensive.
Poor/technologically handicapped people are going to stick to console because they don't feel like saving money, or don't understand how much better a PC is.
In the end I'm rocking out on my PC with TWO monitors (can ps3/ps4/xbox 360/xbox one do that? no) that have a resolution of 1440p.
And you don't seem to understand a thing about PC gaming. $500 can build you a PC to play any game out right now on normal settings. Which surpasses console graphics by far.
$500 can't get you anything better than the next gen consoles unless you can build your own which 75% of people cant. Lol

Or we just don't want to play on a pc, that's all. I'd rather play on something separate.
And you guys wonder why we hate the pc community. Ignorant, stuckup kids like yourself.
I play on PC and I went from xbox to PC and the community of PC is full of dicks who are stuck so far up their own ass.

Xbox one can do that Lol. It supports 4k resolution and can support 3 monitors at once, good try though random.
