Hello, I'm looking for a relatively cheap headset, around $20-40, to use with Skype, TeamSpeak, and games such as Team Fortress 2. I already have a pair of headPHONES, but I need a headSET with a microphone. Can anybody recommend a pair to me from personal experience?

Also, I would like to be able to order from Amazon, but that part is optional.

I got a Creative Labs Fatal1ty gaming headset for 20$ a long time ago, maybe you can find it i don't know if it's discontinued or not but mine still works even with drops, travel, etc... (bought mine in 2005-6)

For cheap headset, this is the best i found in that time and even now it's something i can recommend for an integrated audio...

The replacement (newer model of this) is the Tactic 360 i think, i found it at 35$ so you can check this one too

PS: this isn't comparable to 100$+ headset paired with a dedicated soundcard for sure but it was doing a great job before i replace it with a Siberia V2 (can be found at 60-70$ in rebate) but the siberia really sound better paired with a soundcard than on onboard so if you don't have a sound card, don't buy that !!!

The Tactic360 Ion looks pretty good, and I would be able to use it on my 360, so as of yet, it is the winner.
