Workaround? I don't have a gaming headset?

    I'd love to do some co-op gaming but generally a headset is required to communicate with your co-op partner.

    The game I am specifically thinking of, in case it matters, is Sniper Elite 5.

    As I don't have such a headset, is it possible to bodge it using earbuds/cheap headphones for the audio and webcam for the mic?

    totally. Whatever you can plug in to your PC inputs and outputs that work with audio will be fine.

    all you would need in addition to whatever you already have is a mic

    Earbuds with a microphone on the cord from an old phone?

    Thanks all I ended up buying a cheap headset which will do the job.
