There are many different features in Headsets Sound Quality, Input quality etc.
You get what you pay for.
But the main difference is USB or Microphone/Headphone Jack types.
USB types are of course more expensive. But the other type give average sound and average input quality it is enough for any gamer. You can get them for between about AU$10-AU$50 again you get what you pay for.

No, you have to connect both the sound output and the microphone input. If you don't have both near eachother you may look into a USB headset.
