That's actually the exact same question I had when I was purchasing it and the answer is no, at least not unless you have some adapter that converts it to USB. XBOX and PS3's inputs are all USB and this connects through the little round connectors. Plus there's no talkback cable for XBOX so it definitely won't work there. I have tried and can tell you from personal experience that this will ONLY work on a computer. Sorry. If you want a headset that will work on computer (both PC and Mac), XBOX, and PS3, I suggest a Turtle Beach Headset, like the PX21. That's what I got and it works on all three and is regularly $80 (the cheapest Turtle Beach you'll find that works on all 3). Hope this helps!

Ya it actualy does your just going to have to get your self a audio to 3.3mm jack adapter as well as a xbox pc heaset adapter and these are actualy pretty good. For ps3 I recomend just getting a usb pc headset because there are no jacks built in the controlers.

Just looking at it, I would assume you could. Mine is connected to my computer, but I have also used it on Skype.

Yes I believe you can. I had my son try them out for me and he is a gamer and he said they worked just fine and they have a nice long cord, which is also good for gaming. Keep in mind that I have not used them much yet, but so far I have had no problems with this headset and microphone.

Nope u cant, if u want to use it for gaming buy a gaming headset eg. astro a40 with mixamp i currently use this for gaming and they are the best but they are not the cheapest unless you willing to get the older but refurbished version :)

It can handle games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, League of Legends, Counter Strike: Global Offensive, Team Fortress 2, Minecraft etc. not all on high settings.

yes. You can even use it when gaming it just may not be the fastest available option.

Yes, I bought it just for gaming. But I don't really like its gaming mode (it does not show the real image, it kinda adds a filter to it). But, It's 27inch, and it has a reasonable price, so...pretty good in general

Although I've never prrsonally tried it, in theory you should be able too. Look to insure your games specifications as some may be too advanced to be compatible. Remember this device is purposed to allow one to continue using outdated components. Good luck

I think you could use the monitor to play games. The 3d needs an nvidia graphics card. The graphics chip in the Xbox would not give you the 3d gaming that you're looking for. You would need a 3d t.v. for that.

This laptop is certainly not intended for gaming although gaming is still possible. Experience may vary from one title to the next although in most situations it won't be sufficient enough. To answer your question, no it wouldn't be a good gaming computer though for everything else it should suffice.

I have used it for my ps4 and my gaming pc. Both worked flawlessly. If you have an ethernet port it will work

I have never use this display for gaming purposes. If the ps3 or 4 has an HDMI output, it should work just fine.

Can't answer that. It does stream youtube Hulu type vids well (what I got it for), but my guess it would not do well for gaming.

The os is windows xp pro . So u have to get games compatible With IT. The hardware specs are decent. This is desgined more for work pc than gaming. But could be a simple low cost gaming sys. Dont expect IT to be a xbox or ps though

I have not tried, but I would not recommend it for gaming. I played some older games on it, and they had some lag ...

I got an e-mail about this, so I'm not sure if you meant to contact me directly or what. But anyway, I am happy with the monitor, but I am not using it for a ps3 or any other game console, so I am not sure how well it would work for you. Good luck.

It's only a fair gaming machine. While the processor is powerful, it's slow by today's standards. I think you would be frustrated with the games your are looking at.

I am using it as a monitor. I had the previous generation model used as the same. Neither is gaming, so I can't respond to that, but as a big screen monitor with built-in speakers, it works great.
