Adding USB microphone support to Xbox Consoles

The Issue

As someone who recently switched to primarily playing Xbox over Playstation. The biggest problem I've experienced with the Xbox and it's product compatibility is that it doesn't have USB microphone support.

This problem is shared among my friend group that also switched to xbox.

I just think that this is such a big problem for a lot of people that simply doesn't have a fix. You either buy a bunch of adapters and link them together to get 1 mic to work and a loss of quality or buy a headset that plugs into the controller.

Not only is it annoying to have to buy "Gaming headsets" that have included mics but it is more annoying that they have native support for select products. Such as the turtle beach digital USB microphone. That microphone works on all consoles and platforms. So we know the hardware is capable it's simply a software restriction that NO other company has put up on their consoles.

I simply want the people that have experienced this and the people that want it to change whether they have or not. It's annoying, it's such a small, yet feature that such a large console like xbox should never have had missing in the first place.
