Microsoft's official Xbox One wired headset revealed
IGN's article states that Microsoft's headset will have a wideband voice codec that should improve voice chat, but no details were revealed. The image of the wired headset shows a mute button, along with + and - volume buttons, that have been placed on the controller input side. It's possible that Microsoft could release a higher end headset for the console at some point, perhaps one that uses a wireless connection.
So far, Microsoft has yet to reveal pricing for their own Xbox One headset, just like they have yet to announce pricing for a stand alone Xbox One controller. If you want a headset for the console that offers more features, there will likely be quite a few ready for the Xbox One's launch. Turtle Beach has already announced it will be making headsets specifically for the console, but no details or prices have been revealed.

So we can't use current headsets and it wont be included with the Xbox. That's ridiculous.

Project-Z I hope Astro comes out with a headset soon after this release
Same, I'm not liking how the default headset looks like. The mute button and volume adjustment on the default headset would also take me a little to get used to, seeing as I'm used to Astros and Turtle Beaches.

ReeceyyHackleyj Not included with the console? For $500 I'd expect at least a reach around, but they can't even include a headset that cost < $2 to build? Wow!
The Kinect can be used for talking can't it? O_o
I don't want everone else in my household hearing what other people are saying. F**K the kinect mic

Well yeah, but 1) Everyone hates kinect mics. 2) We want to be able to hear speech directly in our ears, not through the T.V
And doesn't look like I'll be getting this mic. If its not included, no point in getting it. It will brake in about 3 months anyway, so may as well get a decent turtle beach or something :P
