I mentioned in passing that I had thought about doing an apache simulator, but that was on hold for now, so I'm not really sure why he mentioned that. He also left out my comments about the card games and how they can be played online between the blind and sighted together. I'm sure we all mentioned a lot of things in the interviews that didn't get included, but I promise I tried, hehehe. I agree the article focused too much on playing mainstream games and not enough on the games designed for the blind, but still overall it is a positive thing to have out there.

Re: [Audyssey] Gamespot artical on Blind accessible games

Re: [Audyssey] Gamespot artical on Blind accessible games
That was in fact one of the main purposes of the artical and something the author was interested in during our interview, - understandable, as gamespot is a site primarily about mainstream games. there was however I believe sufficient mention to show people that yes, audiogames do exist and are being developed, - even if comparatively few were mentioned.

Re: [Audyssey] Gamespot artical on Blind accessible games
Hi, Agreed--it's good that something like this happened. I'm amazed at the comments especially, it seems to be getting a lot of publicity. I don't think I've ever seen so many sighted people concentrated in one area who are discussing audiogames and suggestions to make mainstream games more accessible. I have a feeling a lot of people are going to be visiting Brandon's site! :). Munawar A. Bijani "Knowledge is of two types: absorbed and heard.

Re: [Audyssey] Gamespot artical on Blind accessible games
Also, The article seems to focus more on "how-to"...making mainstream games accessible, versus the wide scope of audiogames we have currently. I understand there's not much room when you're limited to one article but to me it seems as if audiogames didn't gain enough attention in this one. Munawar A.

Very interesting. And the fact that it was a mainstream gaming community, even if not a dev, that contacted these folks isn't entirely unencouraging. You have acquired the skill of Weaponry Theremin.
