as long as it doesnt have any problems with voice recognition, this could turn out to be really cool. I'm glad they are keeping a traditional control style in though. i loves me some options.

"You... get wood."
"No, not you, the other guy.... not you again. Damnit.... what are your names? Sound off"
*game declares jaques and pierre
"Jaques, get some goddam wood, Pierre, just keep walking around the tower..."
*characters are offended from verbal abuse, defect, and reveal your section of the minimap from the fogs of war to the opposing player
"And this is why I prefer terrorists"

Anyone who's played Brain Age realizes that there may be some problems with this proposed control scheme.
"Blue. Blue. Bluuue. BLUE! Blooooooooooooooooo ... BAH-LEHEW!!! ... Ah screw it."

hopefully they learned a lesson or two (or ten billion) from that ps2 game konami put out a few years ago that had you directing your character through voice commands.

@perfectchaos -
That was more of a problem of a shitty port to the English language. The Japanese version of the game was almost always spot on in terms of recognition.

I can hear it now:
Red team: flank to the left
Blue team: hold position
BLUE TEAM! HOLD POSITION!!!
BLUE TEAM!!!! BLUE!!!!!!! BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TEAM!!!!!
Oh, wait, that would only be on a DS version, right?

hahah, I would just love to walk into the room while my brother is playing this.
-Me: "Sup bro"
-Bro: He nods, doesn't want to talk, fearing it will give some command
-Me: "Hey bro, I heard Iran is gonna GET NUCLEAR BOMBS READY"
-Game: "Nuclear facilities online"
-Bro: "dude, wtf I don't want to LAUNCH MISSILES"
-Game: "Launching missiles. Choose target"
-Bro: "Noooo"
-Me: "oorrrwwaay"
-Game: "Target selected. Norway obliterated. All allies lost"
-Me: "Hahahaha SELF DESTRUCT, please"
-Bro: *cries*

I remember once I tried to use a voice-controlled typing thing.
It was working cool, till it decided to try and type the lyrics of music I was listening to. Then it tried to type my confusion and protest.
Never again.
