You should use the Microsoft's Text to Speech library. There's a topic on that somewhere in the forums, use the search.
Although I haven't had any luck using it on my computer.

The Microsoft Speech API won't work on the 360 though - its not 100% managed code.

There is no speech recognition possible on the 360 - we don't have access to input from the microphone.

Casey ported a Open Source speech synth to XNA a long time ago - http://www.brains-n-brawn.com/default.aspx?vDir=xnasynth code probably doesn't compile any more since I think that was XNA 1.0 but it shouldn't be too hard to get working.
