Plantronics make a few lightweight viable headsets.
The model I have is standard plug type as my experience with usb headsets has been ...colorful.

If you up your budget just a little bit you should be in the surround sound headset price range though, and there's quite a few options in that bracket.

I have used quite a few different gaming headsets but, the best resource I found to get an impartial view on them can be found at http://www.gamingheadsetreport.com, they are constantly adding new headset reviews.
