Hi, I can play Mortal Kombat 9/2011 just fine on my PS3. The menus are a bit tough but once you get used to them, you can play it just fine. It helps that I have knowledge of two previous incarnations of the game for the Sega Genesis though of course, much has changed. I enjoy it although a couple characters that were my most faithful fighters have dropped in this incarnation, but that may change with time..

If you learn the menus you can do the battles I guess. However moving around and using the sphere grid would be pretty much impossible.

Hi Mike,

Hope you don't mind me asking, but I used to play the final fantasy games on my playstation and they are some of my favourite main stream games, but the ones I have played have always been very text heavy with battle menus and most character speech has been text to. you said you played final fantasy x though , do you still play now and have you found it to be in anyway
accessible?

Paul

Yes sports games are possible. But answer me this: How do you play racing games? How do you know where to turn or if you're going the wrong way? Rockband I understand, it's a great game and I like playing it. I guess my point is that we can't play more of the current things if that makes sense. Like COD or Resident Evil. That's why I like playing games like Final Fantasy X, Kingdom Hearts and Mass Effect (to a degree). I guess you could play third person shooters if you do what I do and use a lock-on system or use sound cues which is how I play them, ut FPS's are, I think, out completely. I'm not trying to make it sound like totals can't, I'm really
just curious.
Mike.

very true I love racing games and many others on my x box 360 it

Let's just say that as a total we've been able to play more games
than most

people expect... even my friends with low vision. Fighting games are probaqbly boring only because you play against the computer... it's much more stimulating to play against humans and delve into the meet
of the game

which is usually more mental. Street Fighter IV, for example, has pretty simple mechanics. But those mechanics build into longer combos
and strategy

that can't be found in any other genre.  But totals can play the
majority of

hack n slashes to at least a certain degree. Many people are able to play Ninja gaiden 3 without issue and are already close to beating
the game, and

games such as Rock Band and some sports games are also playable. But
that's

a whole other topic.  lol

I am not about to read 40 messages, so I will just comment on this first one. I agree with Thomas on his points. While I don't play many audio games mainly because I don't care for the content when I have other games on my ps2/ps3 that I play more, I see it all the time with this community that people aren't happy, that they bitch and moan about keys/cracks of games all the time after a game is released, and even after it's been released. However, you can't put
the blind community at 100% fault.  The same thing goes on with
sighted gamers. But since we are a relatively smaller community it
hits a lot harder.  If you don't have a thick skin and

can just let comments roll off, you're going to quit. This is why I
don't

develop. One reason is because I don't have the time to do it, the
other reason is if  I did and started to get a whole lot of
complaints, I know I'd explode on somebody.
I've said it before. These debs go through a lot of work to create
a game

for everyone to enjoy. It takes a while to code and find bugs and
get rid

of them. I'm glad Jeremy has not quit his work because right now, he's the only one that is making modern games for us. If he wasn't here, I doubt that TRTR would've been made or any of the other games
that are starting to come out.  The same thing happened with
Entombed. That was the closest that I've ever seen an audio game
come to final fantasy.  I'd

like to see more like that, however I know that that starts to get
harder

because with more complex things you want happening, the more code
you need to put in/the more time you need to put into the game.
Another person who has been working with this for a while is Dentin.
He's

actually put in code for us to make Alter better and easier to play.
Not

only does he put up with sighted people bitching at him because
equipment

gets dented or things are really hard, but he's putting up with the
blind

community complaining when mush-z doesn't work. Hopefully most of
those messages get sent to the right channel but who knows.
I don't know if I'll read this thread after I send this message.
But I'll

repeat what I said at the beginning of this reply. While we are a
smaller

community, we can not put all the blame on the blind people. This
kind of

thing happens on a much larger scale with the sighted players.
However, if we keep this up pretty soon you're going to have no one
left who wants

to make games for the blind and then you all will start complaining
about

how you all have nothing that matches up with what todays consoles have. And whose fault will that be but your own? Not everyone can play todays games on the ps3 or Xbox360. I know I'm having trouble with the little amount of vision that I have. It's almost impossible for me to play anything new that comes out because the print is to small for me to read or I can't see what is on the screen. I know it's way harder if not completely impossible for totals to play anything
but fighting games which

I can not stand whatsoever.  They just bore me after about 15
minutes.  As

I said, keep it up and see what happens.
Mike.
