The voice overs are very nice, (Battle Mode).  But the text does not match what is being said, word for word.  Please either change text or change the voice over.

I actually kind of like that they don't exactly synch up.  Think of it as a verbal report from someone who has seen the written report but wasn't allowed to make a copy }:)

Part of my thought process includes people who don't speak English as a first language.  The voice over can give them a good idea how to say things while reading the text.

A very nice sentiment, but when all is said & done this is a game whose raison d'etre is to entertain, not be used as a learning tool.
