Talking Max 2

Summary: Pretty Good
Review: Although he sometimes turns the phrase you said into something different, this is a great game for both young and old. That is why I give this product a whopping 4 stars!

Review: I purchased this program two days previous to writing this review (however, not from your online store, so you have nothing to be blamed for) and chose to review it because I feel that my money has been wasted in doing so, and I would like you to know my personal views on this program before buying it yourself. Talking Max is a voice-recognition program where you use voice commands to opperate and control a cartoon parrot. Oh yes, I should mention that there is a microphone included in the package, which wasn't fully brought to my attention when purchasing the item at the time, so I had to drive all the way back to return a microphone that I didn't need. The program itself, however, is a very great idea, but what is not clearly explained on the box (but will be told to you now) is that Max can not handle just any old voice command, but instead, specific phrases that he recognizes. What is also annoying, is the fact that it can not clearly destinguish the difference between these phrases, and for me kept on opening the help screen or asking if I wanted to quit the program over and over again, not to mention the fact that it keeps trying to sign you on-line every time you open the program. What a hassel!! Untill speech recognition can be improved, games such as this are a long ways away from being enjoyable to work with.
