Xbox 360 Connecting Xbox 360 to Xbox Live through PC

I swear I read you had a DVI socket, sorry about that in that case as the breakout box comes with an HDMI cable that would be the way to go

I don't think you can use a standard USB headset, no. All of the game sound is sent out of the HDMI/AV socket and there isn't a way to install drivers to change this. Also the chat microphone goes in to the controller via a 2.5mm plug.

You could get an RCA>3.5mm female cable, plug that in to the AV cable/breakout box and then plug some standard headphones in to that for the game sound. I got a Turtle Beach headset for Christmas - these have both a 2.5mm plug for the chat sound and a 3.5mm for the game sound; might be worth investigating.

 

Right, cheers mate. I might just plug headphones into my monitor seeing as it has a jack for it. That should save me some time (and money ).

 

Yup that's the cheapest option fo' sho'. If you want to chat as well then you could plug speakers in to the monitor and use the supplied 360 headset - sorted

 

Sorted indeed!
