Pretty much everyone here will suggest a decent pair of headphones and a mic as it is cheaper and much better

I would suggest getting an adapter like this  and buying the beast headphones and a mic that @ShearMe suggests

What was the name of the "clipon" mic linus did a review of?

The OP wants the easiest experience switching between consoles guys. Using a wireless headset is generally easier than swapping all those cables on separate headphones and mics.

Oh cool idea, but won't he have to switch the wireless receiver anyways or is using the integrated Bluetooth or something ?!

You have clones of yourself to use both at once D: WHAT

Easier to switch one module than a handful of wires all over the place. If sitting at a desk, it'd be easiest to use some sort of switch setup, but that'd take a lot of adapters for various connections.

The Corsair Vengeance 1400 is a pretty solid headset. Goes for about $90 last time I checked. Don't know if it's compatible with consoles, though.

 

Pretty sure the connections on the controller are still only chat, and not in-game audio (anyone can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong), so a mere PC gayman herdset wont be any good.
