Yes it does...But you don't need the Sony one, any Bluetooth headset will work.

I use a Jabra and it works fine.

I have the Jabra and the Official Sony Headset and I find the official one much, much better. Anyone Bluetooth headset will do though.

I've had 3 headsets for the ps3. The last one I got was the official headset and it is by far, much better than anything else I've used.

I just use one I got with my phone from work. It's a Nokia. Works without problems. (Bluetooth). By the way, if you have one of the SOCOM headsets for PS2 (USB) they work also. (Though the wire is annoying...)

Hope this helps.

I bought SOCOM with the Headset and it's really a charm. The voice is very clear and it doesn'T hurt your ear after having it on for 1+hour.

The PS3 Official Headset Sounds better, is easier to "Marry" to the PS3, and gives you a status read-out of batery charge level, and functionality, which no other headset offers.

I also have the Jabra, and while it works just fine, I strongly recommend the Official PS3 one

The Official PS Headset is just so much better for PS3 than any other one out there though... best audio quality plus on screen display... nothing else compares..

The answer to this depends on what you want the headset to do.

I originally bought a cheap USB headset, but took it back when I realized that none of the game sounds would come through it.

Turtle Beach has a headset out (the PX1) that has taps for the red and white audio cables that go to the TV. This lets their headset play game sounds and chat through the headset. You just have to turn down the TV, and that will keep all the non-players in the house happy.

They are more than the Bluetooth headsets ($80 + Shipping), but well worth it to me. They do require 2 USB ports (one for power to the headphones, and the second for the USB sound card it ships with). This was a problem for me because my steering wheel also uses USB, and the 80Gb only has 2 ports. A hub solved that though.

Yes it does and the quality for it is amazing. I had two 3rd party ones like the MGS4 headset which were awful, i suggest getting the official Sony one.
