Fastest way is to have someone with sight just read the logo sticker on the controller. because that description could fit a lot or ones not highly known.

Rummaging through a box of stuff I had packed when moving into this house, I have come across a game controller. I think that Thomas Ward did a review of it once, but I don't recall which model this is, or anything about it. I'll describe it below in hopes that this indicates what I have. The question is this: Is this an adequate controller for the currently accessible games for blind gamers. I'm still using Windows XP. Here's the description:

The USB cable is retractable and the button to retract it is immediately to the right of the cable. Along this same surface are 2 buttons on the left edge and two more on the right edge. This surface faces away from the gamer.

On the top surface on the left is a set of 4 sort of long buttons that look like they might be arrows. These are just forward and to the left of a round knob that can be moved in any direction and also clicks when pressed straight down. There is another identical knob to the right of this one. Between these knobs is a set of 4 buttons in a diamond pattern, the rightmost one feels like an arrow that points to the right. To the right, and slightly ahead of, the right hand knob mentioned before is another set of 4 buttons that are a bit bigger and are round, in a diamond shape. Northwest and northeast of the center set of buttons, is another small button. Between these two buttons is an oval-shaped, convex glass or plastic piece that does not press. I'm thinking it is some visual indicator of some sort. Finally, facing the gamer are two handles with which to hold the controller.

Any feedback on this is appreciated.
