Mad Catz' Tritton (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Tritton/) label has just shipped a version of its Kunai wired headset optimized for both the PS3 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/08/playstation-3-review-late-2012/) and the PS Vita (http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/13/playstation-vita-review/) that might redress that (admittedly minor) deficit. About the only real customization for Vita owners is the option for a shorter 3-foot cord, but PS3 owners can plug in through USB and adjust voice volume independently from the gunshots and explosions. Regardless of which game console the Kunai links to, there's a modest 25Hz to 20KHz headphone frequency range and few frills aside from a detachable boom microphone. Tritton is mostly counting on the price to lure us in, which just might work -- at $60, berating players in-game with a Kunai will cost as much as one of the games themselves.
