Using Karaoke Mic in computer?

[legcramp]

Hey guys, my uncle has a lot of wired mics that he used to use for karaoke, but now people use nothing but wireless

Anyways, there's plenty of them just laying there, do you guys think one of these would work for me for using in BF2 or CS:S????

I know I wold have to pay 3-4 bucks for a 1/2--> 1/8 adaptor, but I need to get this confirmed before I go and ask him for one, and buy the adaptor. Thanks.

BTW, would these be better than a regular computer mic? will there be any problems? it will pick up more noise and such right?

remember it's free!

thanks guys.

I have a Shure Beta58 and an SM68 so when I looked around I came upon this:

And pending on how much I want to spend, I may end up with this:

Though I havent yet tried just using an impedance line adapter:

But another thing though when just trying out a plug adapter, I also needed a mic stand. So I bought one used for micing amps/drums, then there's the room this setup takes up and all the cords to deal with.
