6000 Kinect voice commands in Madden 13

Posted By | On 03rd, Aug. 2012

EA has gone all out with the Xbox 360 version of Madden 13 which features over 6000 voice commands. Now this is something unprecedented and shows how dedicated the team behind the game are.

“It can be confusing with the amount of options we put on the screen to navigate menus. We wanted to use very common language that people can understand to try to allow them to use these commands,” Victor Lugo, designer at EA Tiburon revealed to Eurogamer.

“There are commands that we’re loading directly into the game right now. What dynamic grammars do is take text and dynamically load it in, the name of the characters you have, your custom audibles and basically uses phonics to sound it out.

“If you type your name in there you can just say your name. If you put all your custom audibles in you’ll be able to say them. All that adds up to the ability to add any play into the game and call out the name of any player, and that’s over 6,000 commands.”
