Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knows anything about Voice Buddy, either pro or
con?
I am thinking about getting it if it is any good.
Thanks
Charley

In case you are asking about voice chat in general.

You can Download Game Voice Share 1.5 for free.

I have used it (just today) and enjoy the fact you can communicate with
others even while you are setting up the game. Maybe other programs allow
that, I do not know. It's just very nice IMO.

About the only thing you have to do is click on host chat and give the
other(s) your supplied number. If they cannot join, you ask them to Host
and you join.

BTW. Voice chat might require DSL/cable instead of dial-up.

I'm also curios about Voice Buddy. Its sounds like the ultimate
"immersion toy", but computer generated speech is usually pretty poor.

You might want to look at Team Speak. It supports multiple platforms,
and is divided in a client and server. There are also public servers
available for use. Best of all, some of the supported codexs are very low
bandwidth, so dial up use would be possible.
