(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So I'm looking to start making videos/commentaries primarily of CoD gameplay and I have a few questions about everything I'll need to get started.

First off my budget is about 200-275 dollars at most for everything I might need to purchase.

What's a good way to record my gameplay with the sounds of the game while not being too insanely expensive. I'd like something with decent quality of picture and game sounds.

What microphone should I use to record my voice for the commentaries? I'd prefer it to be inexpensive but I want my voice to sound pretty clear and for my voice to not be distorted much.

What's a good editing system that I can put my commentary and the gameplay together in? I already have Sony Vegas Pro, so I might just use that anyways though.

Thanks in advance, and I'll be sure to thank those that help me.

Short and sweet

Use $200 to buy a HD PVR
And use the $75 to buy a Turtle Beach Headset PX21(Great Gamer Headset and works with PS3, XBOX and PC)

You could pay 200$ but I'd go for used or something. Find something that's cheaper, and still does HD. What you can do is google the top pvrs or whatever, then do quality searches for them on youtube. Cuz cmon 200$ you must be insane to pay that you could with 100$ buy another system lol. Unless you got money to blow, and need the absolute best stuff.

100-150$ for pvr 50$-75$ for a Mic, px21 is a gaming headset it does have a mic, but it might be better to buy a mic by itself. Unless you want a gaming headset.

Hopefully you've saved 50-100$ you can spend on something else. I recommend this because getting the best isn't always worth the money. USED WORKS!
