The Xbox 360 version of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim may not support mods like the PC version, but it will have one unique feature soon: voice commands.

Using the Kinect sensor, players will be able to use more than 200 voice commands to interact with menus or the game world. Yes, that includes Dragon Shouts, so now you can shout "Fus Ro Dah" for an actual reason and not just for fun like you do now.

Voice commands will be used for pretty much everything, including setting hotkeys, navigating menus, and even simply saving and loading your game.

Bethesda says to look out for a full list of commands in the following weeks. Voice commands will be Xbox 360 exclusive, despite Kinect existing on PC.
