Hi Ken,
Yeah, but to be fair Doom and Doom II ar childs play compared to the
games of today. The levels are so much more complex now with not only
north, south, east, west directions but the addition of up and down as
well. That makes it almost virtually impossible to figure out where to
go in
Here's the thing, Ken. That's exactly why blind people tend to avoid
games... in the minds of most it's all about beating the game. While
I share the sentiment I also like the pleasure of seeing what I can
mess around with in any game... action adventures, for example... I
run around
That is extremely true yohandi. I personally feel the same way you do. You
know I also play mainstream games a lot. I just don't find it fair. That
is all I have to say.

I usually comment on the games that I have an interest in. As to mainstream
gaming, a lot of them must be used on a gaming console, which I don't have
the money to buy, and, if I could afford one, would the expense be justified
if a very few games are those I would be interested in playing?
hmmm
If a mainstream did that I would probably try it at least.
Most audio games have cues for sertain events though with the g3d
