For gaming headsets it's difficult to find really great sounding sets. I once had a pair of Astro a50s for gaming and although it was pretty much everything you are looking for it just didn't sound all that good compared to some headphones I had heard. For a gaming headset the only one I can imagine thats actually pretty good sounding is the sennheiser game zero. There may be more I just don't rate them in all honesty. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00KNPYAEY/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1491433721&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=game+zero&dpPl=1&dpID=51hGrH11NVL&ref=plSrch
For out and about I'd look at some bower & wilkins wireless headphones. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01KLS5SIE/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1491433684&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=bower+wilkins+p7&dpPl=1&dpID=41o3yTECXHL&ref=plSrch
If you are listening at home and don't mind some sound leak then go with open headphones something like a fidelio x2 sound great for music and gaming but no sound isolation. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00O2Y2MZG/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1491433783&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=fidelio+x2&dpPl=1&dpID=41UXJa54INL&ref=plSrch
I use the fidelio x2 and modmic 4 with the PlayStation and Xbox sounds great and the mic is really top notch.

deycallmelionIt just clips on to the side of the headphone you will need https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00IRVQ0F8/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1491434268&sr=8-5&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=headphone+mic+usb&dpPl=1&dpID=51FLiQuh7EL&ref=plSrch You plug this into your console and plug mic in then you can plug headphones into either your joypad, the headphone slot on the usb or use an external sound source like an amp which i do for best sound.

Ohhh , ok . Then i might just buy one REALLY good headset , a modmic , and then this . That will be more than good enough . Btw what do u think of the V-Moda 2 Wireless and the Bose QC35 ?

deycallmelionYeah go that route imo any good headphone will beat any good gaming headset any day. Not heard any of them I know the QC35 are pretty well regarded though.

deycallmelionI can't really say as I haven't heard them I wouldn't want to review something I have no experience with. I imagine they are both very good and "better" will be very subjective between them. Hopefully someone who knows the headphones can help you out.
