This video has a good example of it (or a similiar product) in action.



Seems pretty cool.

Would be interested in others experience with it.

I do with Elite Dangerous (nice and cozy) and with DCS Huey.
The feeling of commanding/being there with your Peter Pilot is second to none.

Not nearly as awesome if your name is, for example, "Colin". smile

I've been usin' voice recognition software for quite a few years now, and it compliments any controller setup nicely. VoiceAttack itself is excellent, I can't recommend it enough if your in the market. I'm currently usin' it w/ Elite: Dangerous the most, and just like any programmable input device, you can use it w/ anything that accepts keyboard input. The software also allows you to assign audio file playback (i.e. confirmations) to commands a well, which is where you'll find the most utility when comparing it to other options.

I use it with X-com. I haven't have time to game too much lately but I plan on using it more.

I also use it with some editing programs and running my mp3 software, money well spent.

I use VAC http://www.dwvac.com/download.html
It's probably got the worst website on the modern internet, but it all works really well - in Windows 8.1 x64 as well.

I use it to talk to the ATC, instead of hitting the hot keys. But it will work for anything that can accept mouse or keyboard input.

Voice Attack borders on being a must-have for Star Citizen. A number of citizens have shared VA scripts with the community. A.N.N.A. is probably the best one. Monkeh, the author, has even given 'her' an emotional state that varies depending upon how you interact with 'her'.

If you are going to use VA's text-to-speech capabilities to provide voice responses, be aware that there are 3rd party sources for voices that sound much better than what is provided with Windows. IVONA has quite a variety to choose from, though they can be bought for less through other providers. IVONA's UK-Amy voice is what Monkeh used in his A.N.N.A. (although you can use whichever you prefer), and it is excellent.

Here's a demo from several month ago... it's been improved upon since then:



And a tutorial on how-to:
