Re: [Audyssey] voice games
This is something I'd absolutely love to see myself,cutscenes and progressive missions and such, and looking at soundmud's plans for the game it seems this is an eventual goal. You can already create maps, I believe the ability to create things like cutscenes and the criteria for missions, will be coming in in a lter version. If this is done I migh have a go at creating something myself. Beware the Grue!

Thomas - I don't know whether this will work to improve voice control for games, but there is a new product out that speeds up voice recognition considerably. It is Utter Command by Redstart Systems. I've seen a demo and you can do a number of actions in a very short time using their speech interface software. Check it out at www.redstartsystems.com. Even if it won't work for gamers, it is something that can help people to function on computers better if they have problems using a keyboard.

Re: [Audyssey] voice games
Ehrm, perhaps, though I'm not sure if the one that ships with windows is that great. I tried it once...it was ok for one word things, but for sentinces, it wasn't that great. Has anyone heard of the game hey you peekachew? Its actually really neat, and if it would only talk, it would be a very accessible game. it was for the nintendo 64. I stil own and play it today, with a bit of sited help at first...but I stil play it alone sometimes. You talked to a pokemon, and the pokemon did things. Really a neat game- check it out on gamefaqs. Actually gamefaqs appears to be down, the first time I've ever seen that site down. Have a good day from Tyler C.

But it wouldn't be ergonomic enough without an important redesign of the game interface. The current commands of the game would need too much micromanagement, and the game would be tedious (or even harmful for the voice), and irritating if too many errors happen during the recognition. A solution would be more powerful, strategic, commands, like train 10 peasants, or build 2 farms at b1, and you would spend more time meditating while your orders are executed. It would be like explaining to the computer AI which units to build without giving to many details. Maybe the computer would ask you a question from time to time, when there is some important decision to make. Moreover, there would be commands used to ask for a global description of the situation, the problem being that you know less details about what is happening because you are not (always?) giving direct orders, and you can't easily explore the map interactively with voice only (or maybe the keyboard is still available?). The interface would have to be even more sophisticated to give only the relevant informations. Another drawback: in multiplayer games, it might interfere with voice chat. Interesting, anyway.

Re: [Audyssey] voice games
Hmmm, personally if the game would have to change that much, lose the micro management and become question based, I'd probably rather it stayed as it is, - or that the voice commands were added in addition to the keyboard, perhaps with a question or speed control, to let the player decide how much they wanted to use them. I myself can certainly see advantages in being able to speak certain commands, - like battle or building orders especially if I was concerned with some other aspect of the game like examining the map or ordering troops elsewhere, but i don't know if I'd want the game entirely controled by voice only. then again, I've never tried a game which interfaced with voice recognition, so I probably can't evaluate how it would work very well.
