Shephard, don't die!

Microsoft's E3 show is happening right now, and EA's Mass Effect 3 is confirmed to include Kinect voice commands.

The on-stage demo showed the sensor can be used at any time in-game — read the dialogue options aloud and Shepherd will respond appropriately, or use your voice to give commands to your soldiers in combat.

The voice commands seemed to respond smoothly and accurately, though of course it's always worth remembering many E3 demos are heavily scripted and rehearsed.
