Neat! But would it only be audio? No way to talk to others?

There are many addaptors. This one may work depending on what you connecting to. Let me know if instead your trying to connect to the controller.

I see you may need more than one converter. Here is the 360 connector and piggybacks.

Ok wait I'm confused. Most of these cables require two cables and I only have one. Will the first link alone work for both audio and mic? Maybe I should include that this headset was built for the Xbox one. Can that even work or should I just buy a legit xbox 360 headset???

The first requires 2 plugs so you need a pig tail to split your single 3.5 into 2. Most likely its this one.

With this one.

Also I think the part that goes in the controller only allows chat and no in game sound.

Yup the adapter has to female connectors. Thus you need to single 3.5 with both signals converted into 2 seperate.

Thus this splits your headphone and your mic.

The X360 is a non-OEM product so there no way to be 100% sure. It should as long as the part is good.
