Xbox One will not suport current-gen gaming headsets
The new port means that current headsets by leading accessory manufacturers, including Turtle Beach, will not work with Xbox One.
According to the source, the propriety data port means Microsoft can control the production of third party peripherals with licensing and authentication standards that manufacturers will be required to meet.
When questioned on the subject, a Microsoft spokesperson said the company will share fresh details on how third party peripherals will work in the future.
"We are working with 3rd party headset manufacturers to create new headsets that will take full advantage of the Xbox One technology," the rep said.
Xbox One will come bundled with a new iteration of its Kinect technology. The hardware features voice technology which will allow chat both in-game and via Skype.

Just another way for them to make as much money as possible. I really hate Microsoft just for the small things that they do like this...

I have always just used the standard headset that came with the xbox and it did perfectly fine for me with chat, I think turtle beaches are nice but they don't do much much for the amount of money you pay.

What would you need to talk to your xbox in game for? "Xbox pause the game and mute my mic, I gotta go pee."

It is annoying, but there's probably a reason, like they dont fit in the new controller or something.
