Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Throat Communicator for Xbox 360

Comment: Great idea, and not bad for the money. Just know that the volume on your tv set or on your stereo system needs to be turned down or you and everyone else in your lobby will be enjoying some tasty feedback.
The mute button it too small for my liking as well.

Comment: I saw this and thought wow, that looks cool. Then i got it and put in on and plugged into my controler and tryed to play and i was like, wow this doesnt work at all...Seemed like fun when i saw it but never actually worked quite right. Id return it if it wasnt such a pain in the arse. My friends see the throat mic and tell me how they are going to go get one and swiftly talk them out of it.

Comment: When I ordered this MW2 throat mic communicator I was expecting the communication quality that i got with the original microsoft headset. I was told by a retailer that the ear bud sound and mic quality were excellent. when i got it the ear bud fits snugly inside my ear (which took some getting used to) but now I prefer that to the original xbox headset earpiece. It sounds really great! The downside is that quite often I am told by other gamers on xbox live that I am difficult to understand. Now I don't really understand how a "neck mic" works differently than a regular one but I think that is chink in the armor of its design...that and the ergonomics of the mute switch are poor. It is so small and SHARP (digs into my finger when I switch it) that I find myself avoiding using it almost all the time.

In conclusion I would say that the MW2 Communicator needs to be redesigned. In its current form i would just go get the similarly priced and familiar original xbox one. Its a cool idea that needs to be refined to really be preferred.

p.s. it makes a better cellphone head set than xbox communicator, the throat mic shield the wind from it and the audio problems experienced with xbox live aren't there when being used on a cellphone. it was whisper sensitive and ear bud audio was excellent. great for driving but you will probably scare people if you are walking around on the street with a throat mic on.

Comment: the mic is way to sensitive you cant use with surround sound or have your tv very loud or your friends with hear everything on the game through your mic

Comment: It does exactly what it should do. I have had no issues with it at all and I have had it for about a month now.
