Hi
I'm a classic gamer myself. I think I'm one in 1000000 because there doesn't
seem to be much interest here.
Anyway, onto my report - I'll make this as detailed as I can, sorta.
Well, to start off with, I own a sega genesis, soon to own a sega cd, 3do
and dreamcast - I also own a n64, and gamecube.
Sega Genesis:
Well, this heres pretty obvious - the 16 bit lovable genesis released in
1989. Anyway, the best beat-em-up ever is Streets of rage. Its one of my all
time favorite games - and while I can't beat it, I can get to level 4 pretty
easy - I made it to level 5 once, but that was by luck. If I practiced
enough, I could beat it - but I get enough enjoyment out of it that beating
it doesn't matter to me.
Mortal kombat 1, 2, and 3 - Well, fighting. Nothing talks, but I don't care.
I'm slowly learning all the moves. I love mk 3, though, its got the coolest
music, and my favorite MK character of all - nightwolf!
Sega CD:
This heres an add on to the genesis. Its got the same color pallit - but
better sound, more storage space - which means more things talk and more
accessibility is here...
Mortal Kombat for this system wasn't widely recognized. Bad graphics. Jesus.
Who cares about graphics!
Its basically MK1 for the genesis revamped to have characters names spoken,
and music from the arcade version. The most horrible thing here though is
the load times. Nearly 30 seconds between each fight. If you do a fatality,
you have to wait about a second before it actually does it.
Keep in mind I'm only brushing the top. I could go into much more details
over each game, each system, etc.
I'm missing a system or two here - but you get the idea. Mostly fighting
games - but then again, Rush 2: extreme racing for the n64 was and still is
one of the coolest racing games of all time.

Subject: [Audyssey] Accessible Mainstream Games
Hi,
my name's Mani Djazmi and I'm a reporter on the In Touch programme at BBC
Radio 4 in England. I'm currently researching a feature on the
accessability of computer games for blind and partially sighted people.
The impression I'm getting is that mainstream games generally aren't very
accessible so bespoke ones are being produced. Is this fair? Do any of you
guys play mainstream games and how do you find them?
I look forward to hearing your thoughts and knowledge.
Cheers
Mani
