    Mad Catz signs exclusive rights wireless headset contract with Microsoft

    Well well well starting this holiday season, if you want a wireless gaming headset for your Xbox 360, Tritton will be the only ones you will be able to buy. Kind of sucks for those who can't afford Tritton's prices.

    Mad Catz snatches up exclusive rights to Xbox 360 wireless headphones

    The crazy kitties over at Mad Catz have signed yet another licensing agreement to further sink their claws into the world of gaming peripherals -- they've just sealed a deal with Microsoft to be the exclusive supplier of Xbox 360 wireless headphones, as well as non-exclusive rights for wired 360 headphones. All products under the agreement will bear the Xbox logo, as well as the signature "T" from Mad Catz's recently acquired Tritton series, but don't go out looking for them anytime soon -- these cats won't mark their territory until Christmas 2011.

      Wow, I'm glad I already have the bluetooth-headset looking one.

          Exclusive deals are terrible, but at least it's the Trittons. Those are much better that the Turtle Beach headsets IMO.

          Still really stupid though.

              still better than MS locking out 3rd party wireless accessories entirely like they've done this whole generation.
