On TV or radio you can't hear any football sounds. Rather give me the sounds, I mean, if we don't have the sounds as feedback, we can't really play the game! Jack, it looks as you're interested in American football? You may be interested in reading an article I wrote a long time ago in one of the back issues of Audyssey on how I thought an accessible American football game could be made. (they were just thoughts, and I don't even know how possible they were, but I was actually a bit disappointed that a games developer didn't look into it, or maybe it's not possible or such a good idea). I like football instead, but I wish someone could think up a solution to get a very accessible version out their. I know we have Super Football, but that's more a type of board game, you can't run, their's no crowds, teams, leagues, etc. Since it's a more of a world thing, I think that suggesting it to Code Factory, RNIB, or one of those huge organisations would be good. I actually think that it's sad that large organisations for the blind aren't developing new board games, or, better still, they should look at the possibility of making electronic or accessible computer games. I'm not trying to take anything away from our community of developers, but since a place like RNIB receives funding, and since it's a brand in the blind world, it could ask huge game companies to jump on board and help. One thing I was wondering was, for example, a company like Microsoft, who actually have their own departments for accessibility. If a person could somehow persuade them to put speech in their Flight Simulators, really advanced speech giving really precise details, we could play it. Ari
