not read one single menu. It'll all be in the game itself, and JAWS will
have to probably be unloaded like most screenreader game situations.

I'd be amazed if Jaws read anything. As Clement says, I've never seen
a pc spin on a console game that does in my life.

Hi Yohandy,
It is extremely doubtful Jaws will read anything on the screen in the
game. That is essentially because what is displayed on screen isn't
normal text that most Windows applications use, isn't handled via a
standard window API, and is drawn directly to the screen through DirectX

Hi Thomas,
I have heard that some people print the screen to a graphics file, then run
that file through an OCR package to read a graphics screen.
In the future maybe Screen reading programs will have this capability.
Of course reading the text would be only half the problem as you would also

If jaws would read PCs games, man that would be the break thru for blind
gamers. Imagine how many of the mainstream games would be available. Sounds
funny but more than anything I miss being able to play all those hundreds of

As a consolation to those pensive about wiether the game will use the mouse

Hi,
Yeah, there are very few games that would. As I explained in my prier

presentation that Cobra would b able to do realtime OCR in situations
like this. Of course even if they get the Screen Reader off the

accessible titles of reading the menu,

As Tom's already said, there's more or less no chance to interlace a
screenreader with something like that. However, if people wish it, and have
the assistance, you can just learn the menus independently and write them
down or something. I realize this is going to turn some people off, but for
Hi Mike,
It isn't an accessible game, and it doesn't work with a screen reader.
You will need to remember the menus etc just like you would if playing

Yes I know that. But Thomas answered my main question. If the menu would
read. If you are blind the game is unplayable.

Once you have menus and character selection screens memorized, the moves
themselves aren't so hard to pull off. Stuff like down forward with a
particular punch or kick, half circle motions, not too complicated once you
get used to it. Though you might want to be aware of the fact that

This is why I like all the anime-based fighting games so much. Most of their
menus are narated. They don't particularly tell you what the menu item is,
but they give you a description of what you'll find. For example, one of the
items in Dragon ball z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 of course, is options.
with the devices I have, I just used vista drivers and it worked fine
