Dear developers,
I won't be telling you any news when I state that the PC version of Mass Effect 3 will - of course - be technically superior to the console versions. Even though I hope the PC version won't be such a big desaster as with Dragon Age 2, this is not my issue right now.

You have shown some pretty cool features at E3 using the Kinect hardware. While Kinect was officially meant as Xbox 360-exclusive hardware, you can simply hook it up to any PC out there as well. After some initial struggles where one had to use nono-official open source drivers that didn't support all of Kinect's features, Microsoft eventually saw the potential of Kinect on PC and released official drivers that work on any current PC.

The reason why one would only get voice control using Kinect was, as far as I can find on the net, given by the fact that the Kinect hardware does its own fair share of audio preprocessing, allowing game developers to implement voice controls easily into their games. Therefore the voice controls would no be able on PS3 or PC using just any simple microphone. Well, on the PC this is evidently not true because it *does* have Kinect support!

So, this is why I'm asking: will you bring Kinect voice control to the PC version of Mass Effect 3, making it the definitive best version to buy for any Mass Effect fan out there? Or will we have to choose between a graphically superior PC version without Kinect support, and a graphically inferior Xbox 360 version with Kinect support? If so, why?
