Not to be outdone by EndWar's fancy gesture controls, Tom Clancy's HAWX will feature a voice control option, allowing you to squawk commands to your squad mid-dogfight.
Eurogamer learned of the feature during UbiDays, but was unable to get further clarification. According to Eurogamer, an Ubisoft representative also discussed the game's two-player cooperative mode, with a promise of more multiplayer details as the holiday 2008 release approaches. This is where we'd make Top Gun references if we knew any.

I've seen video of HAWX... It defintely looks like Clancy got a hold of Ace Combat 6 and added "realism." Although, said realism is really frickin annoying with the constantly sounding hyper-annoying alarms and monotone female voice warnings of incoming.

You sir, have never played Ace Combat on expert. Hours upon hours of "BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP BOOOM"

This is probably going to end up in hours of "Do a barrel roll!" and "Try a somersault!".
Not that its a bad thing though.

So what's the joke about launching TiVo by accident from anyway? That's twice I've heard it today.

The first joke yesterday was a reference to a minority report picture they used for an endwar article, this one is trying to reference topgun. Both of these films featured Tom Cruise, so they used the same joke ;)

I'm wondering if it will make use of all the buttons and switches from the AC flight stick. Even if it doesn't I'm stoked that they are compatible. (http://www.gametrailers.com/player/34650.html 4:40)

Barrel Roll! To do a barrel, press Z or R twice! Do a Barrel Roll!
This is actually looking pretty interesting!

After EndWar fails at retail you can make a joke about "We hope this time the voice control scheme doesn't crash and burn."
or
"With the online co-op you can let your friends be your wingman......anytime."
Also, congrats to me for just creating what has to be one of the more lame online jokes I've ever made.
