Fuck that shit. Fuck. That. Shit. I have at least three seperate headsets lying around that are infinitely better than anything Microsoft's ever put out, and it really fucking shits me that I can't just use those instead because these people insist on filtering me through gadgets only they directly profit from, and to boot will snap like a twig if you so much as glare at it the wrong way.

It is not this hard to add a standard fucking headphone jack on your controller. How is it that fucking NINTENDO got this right before anyone else?

I wonder if my Turtle Beach headset will work? All it requires is a USB slot.

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

Because you would need two of them. Not to mention, the headphone jack actually goes into the TV itself. :|

Not in the WiiU's case they don't. At worst, you have to go into the options menu to redirect all sound through the gamepad (and consequently, the headphones connected to it). Even though certain propietary headsets have been made with their own compatibile mics, the gamepad itself has a microphone which works almost as well.

The original X360 model ran so loud it practically drowned out the sound on my TV when I first bought it, so I don't think I can blame Microsoft for pointing out they're not making that stupid mistake again.

I was never bothered by the noise, and I had the original model as my first 360. Probably because back at home, I would sit in very close proximity to my GameCube because I could only use it on the 10" TV.

It sounded like one of my mainframes.

That's saying something.

Why does it take an incredible amount of consumer backlash for a company to do something that is so bloody obvious from the get go?
