Xbox One Microsoft Issues Revised Statement On Headsets, Hope For Compatibility

[FordGTGuy]

This week has seen a number of stories from a variety of outlets on the state of headsets and chat on the Xbox One. Yesterday, we received further confirmation from Microsoft that only devices specifically designed for the Xbox One would be supported.

Today, Microsoft has provided us with more detail about why existing headsets are currently incompatible. There's also hope that existing devices may end up working after all (with help).

This is still rather vague, but at least they didn't say anything discouraging. I think they'll make the right call and allow the use of an adapter for other headsets.

people will make headsets for it.. im not even worried about that.. tey wanted to get big names in first and get good sales of that before lower market companies... think of all the companies that make ipod/iphone accessories it will be the same deal.. if a company offers "gaming headsets" they will be on next gen market as well. ps4/xb1 ect ect..
