Does it need to be a headset? Headsets notoriously are pretty bad at both sound and recording quality afaik. If looks are not a factor, you're usually better off buying a good microphone and headphones for a lower total price.
Yeah, it kinda has to be a headset. He has got a laptop and would probably like to be able to take the headset with him and have both headphones and the microphone in one.
From a quick research online, it seems that the Plantronics GameCom 788 should be pretty decent for its price-range. In Denmark you can get it for $67.
Another, cheaper, option is the SteelSeries Siberia 200, which is substantially cheaper, but I'm guessing the mic is also worse.
