We have never been able to get the microphone work for my son's ps3 - he can hear , is there something special we need to do for this to work on ps-3?

Well I know for the xbox 360 you have to have to have the chat wire for the turtle beaches. But having the PS3 setting on it might require the wire if they make a wire for the playstation. If I was you I would call any of your local gamestops and ask them that question. I wish I could be more helpful but all I play is xbox 360 sorry.

I have only ever used it with my pc and ps4. The best advice I can offer for the ps3 is to look at the official support. Hope it helps.http://support.turtlebeach.com/entry/830517337/

Hmmm. I had no problem. Put headset in discoverable mode the scan with PS3. Then select the headset in the PS3

Hey man, actually I just figured out a way for you to send audio from a PS4 to an XPRO2 Pedestal Gaming Chair, or pretty much any chair that has a 3.5mm audio input! Just connect to your PS4 controller, set your controller audio device settings to send [All Audio] and bam! Made a video about it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poDpIVJYCWE

While I personally do not own a ps3, and cannot answer the question from experience, I do suggest looking at: https://support.us.playstation.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4584/~/hdmi-sound-issues#humOther troubleshooting suggestions include changing the HDMI cable, as it may be defective. If all else fails, do contact ASUS technical support or Sony PS3 technical support.

Yes had the same problem. Ps3 and ps4 would not work with this product. An internet search on the topic will pull alot of people with the same problem. If you can return it and get a different brand.

IT doesn't work for ps3, it is for a separate head phone and mic set up. The usb device will not register, the ps3 will only take turtle beach, ps, or any head phone/mic, set up labeled for ps3 use, and most blu tooth head sets/mic.. i actually called Sony playstation division

Dunno if you've already bought it, but as for your questions: Yes it's compatible and No you can't hear the game audio through the headset, it's strictly for communication for the PS3. Also, I JUST ran into this problem, (as I hadn't been able to try it out because of the PSN downtime XD) no matter how high you jack the volume up(microphone OR headset, on both the PS3 settings and the inline volume), you can't really hear what's being said very well. A friend and I both have the headset and had this problem, we think it has to do with the PS3 normalizing the mike and headset volume. We ended up having to buy the Sony brand blutooth headsets that are only $10 more.

Yes and no Yes the system will recognized the device but it will only pick up the chat from online which you can't hear the game cause it still plays through your tv and the mic does not work for the ps3 which is strange. But i do know they work for ps4

You can plug in a microphone and something for audio. Like pc headphones. I'm currently using my pc headphones in my ps3. Hope that answers that for ya.

Did you use the cd for set up?? I followed the instructions from the manual and the cd. We only had some problems with getting the playstation sound through the sound system not the tv.

You can use it as voice chat with the PS3. But it won't play game or movie sounds. Just voice chat. Only the official PS3 headsets play audio.

I received my Sound Blaster Arena headset in the mail today with hopes of getting it to work with the Playstation 3 (PS3) - my results:I already own a cheap PS3 USB headset/mic, but it only goes over one ear and I wanted something a little more comfy so I decided to get the arena. When I plug the device into the PS3, it is correctly detected under Settings -> Accessory Settings -> Audio Device Settings, and I can even hear my voice being outputted through the headset. Unfortunately, no other audio from the PS3 will play from the headset.Unless Sony releases a firmware update, buyer beware if you are getting this headset with the hopes of it working on your Playstation 3.

HiIf you will connect it thru the usb port if the ps3, then no. The ps3 doesn't have audio out from the usb port.

I wish I had an easy answer for you, Roger. 2 suggestions: 1) I found the customer service via SimpleSoft's website (http://www.simplesoftusa.com/) helpful. They responded within a day. 2) Keep trying different ports. I had trouble with the bluetooth microphone, and through trial and error, found a workable solution. It involved calling my wife several times, and asking if she could hear me. If not, I tried a different port. Eventually, 1 worked. Frustrating - and poor instructions - but in the end, worth the effort. Good luck!

I don't have a PS3 to answer definitively, but I believe the PS3 requires a USB connection to plug in. This does not contain that, but there are adapters that could be combined with this to allow it to work. So it could, but I don't believe it will out of the box. You would need something like a USB sound card to plug this into (Note: I do not know for sure if that would work as I have no experience testing it)

uhm you are correct that it wont do game audio but that is ALL usb headsets on the ps3. Headsets on the ps3 ONLY do voice chat.hope that helps you.so if he says he gets voice and its detected then there you have it, it works on ps3.
