Xbox 360 mic problems??

Question

well i have this mic that i got out of the messenger kit and i have had it for a few months and it has been working great but now it just doesn't work correctly. I have to mess around with the wire and move it in a certain direction to make it work and it is just becoming a real pain any way i can fix this? because if there is a way to fix this i don't feel like having to buy a new one.

Answer 1

Unfortunately, pretty much every seingle mic for the xbox is a total pieve of c**p. ive gone through at least 5. i just buy the cheapest ones and keep it in a safe place. ive had the same problem u did with so many mics its not even funny. u just gotta suck it up and buty a new one because sooner or later itll stop workin

Answer 2

Maybe if you're sitting too far away from your 360, the range of the Microphone becomes poorer.

I would reccomend buying a new Microphone.

Answer 3

I've had this very same problem my friend, only it was for my pc.... but none the less i was messing around with he wire moving it fro place to place hoping it will kick in and work and stay that way.

Unfortunately that was too much hassle and it just refused to work on the most important parts of the match(s) (this is over the period of a week) so my recommendation is simply get a new one before this one annoys you so much that you break something, your best bet is to go and buy that wireless one since Microsoft is being stupid and overpricing the basic wired one. Or if your on their warranty still give them a call... you never know they may replace your mic (assuming that you got the original one that all xbox 360's came with)
