Hello fellow gamers. I am just writing to let you guys/gals know about a project I am working on. Basically what I am doing is to write up a detailed description of at least some of the screens and menus that you run into when using the psp and playing Tekken to make the unit more useable for a blind gamer. What I have done so far is a description of what Sony calls the home menu, the menu that comes up when you either turn the psp on with no game inserted or you exit a game via the home key. This is the menu you need to access to play music or movies and whatnot on your psp. Also, I have done a fairly detailed description on the mode selecter menu in Tekken which is basically the menu you get to if you start the game and hit the start button where you decide what kind of game you want to play and make various other changes and pretty much everything else. I am fairly sure I am going to have to add quite a bit to this one before you will be able to really use a lot of it by yourself, mainly descriptions of what to do in some of the submenus. Keep in mind that even when I am done with this, there are parts that are going to either be really hard or require sighted assistance such as doing your initial profile which you have to do the first time you start the game. Lastly, I have described how to get into the tutorial which shows you how to do basic moves and attacks and so on. The tutorial is actually pretty useful if you know what order the different moves and stuff are presented. This project is just starting and I am not going to give what I have out right now until I get it in a form that I am happier with and until I make sure that the stuff that I say can be done can really be done without sight. The reason that I chose to work on the screens and menus for Tekken is quite simply that this is the game that I am most interested in learning myself. Since I am writing the stuff up for myself I am hoping it may eventually be good enough to help some other folks out who may either have a psp already or are considering getting one. As I said this project is in its infancy right now and it will be a work in progress, I will most likely add more games to it as I get them and learn them. I'd like to say here that this project would not be possible if it were not for my wife Mary Beth who is providing indespensible help with reading the various screens and in general figuring things out for me so I can note them down. I think she's hooked on the psp already lol. Anyhow, I will keep you guys posted on major work that is done on the project and I will let you know when I think it is good enough to give out to those who might want it.
