    I played the Endwar demo and was thinking it would be simple commands with little to no accuracy, however it was 100% accurate for me. With many different words too and variations also. During the voice command tutorial it told you what to say, after complying with the directions I tried to get off track and say something else thinking it would still advance, it didn't. It just said that it was the wrong command, I repeated that a few more times but it stayed consistent with recognizing my attempts to fool it. It is a truly shocking game, the gameplay is flawless in time with the voice commands and character movements.
