The typical answer would be to avoid headsets in general if you want quality. Rather, get a good quality pair of headphones (if you state your price range I can find you some), and get either a desk mic or a ~$10 Zalman Clip-On microphone.

Also, it would help if you could state whether you prefer open or closed back headphones. Open will give you larger soundstages and generally better sound, while closed will give you noise isolation and deeper bass.

For gaming in general, many would highly recommend the Audio Technica AD700s. They're kind of weird looking, but they're comfortable and have a huge soundstage which can really help in 3D positioning.
