    I was wondering because I have been looking at the Razer Chimaera 5.1 surround sound headset if anyone has gotten the chat to work on the ps3. On Razer's website it says the Chimaera's chat function can only be used on PC/360 but the headphones themselves can be used on the ps3. My other question is, is there some sort of decoder I could buy if I decided to get this headset, or does the Astro mixamp or turtle beaches Earforce DSS2 Surround Sound processor decode in order to use the chat function on the ps3? Answers would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

    Something like this should work, but I don't know what quality would be like.

    A reviewer said it worked well with his PS3.

    The only problem is its a wireless headset. But it does have two 3.5mm jacks on the back one for mic and one for headset. How is this adapter supposed to work on the ps3 if its made for the pc?
