    are you using the built in mic? if so, thats the reason why you sound horrible. built in mics will not give you the same quality that you would get from a headset, for example. this would happen to everyone. built in mics are not meant to be used for gaming, IMO. if i were you, i'd get a nice logitech headset. that should clear up your problems.
