the xbox communicator looks to be one of the coolest standard peripherals around. Microsoft wants this add-on to be a major part of its broadband internet strategy. the idea is that every online game will include support for the communicator so players can talk to each other like thiyre in the same room. if youve aver played on a netword LAN with others within earshot, yoll know how cool this is. word has it that every online game MUST support voice- the network and communicator will be available in summer 2002
Microsoft is seriously considering supporting voice modulation that would enable you to change your voice in realtime. with some clever programming, you could taunt your enemies with the menacing tone of Darth Vader or the high- pitched shouts of Screech.
