Re: [Audyssey] What's the best game console out there in terms ofaccessibility?
Hi Darren and all. Strictly speaking, none of the game consoles are accessable nor are they ever likely to be so. If you have a game on umd for your psp the easiest way to get into it is to insert the umd before you turn on the system. If you do that then the game should start automatically. If it doesn't then this can probably be configured in the settings menu. I personally find the psp menus quite easy for the most part in terms of the system itself because they do not wrap around, e.g. when you get to the left menu you cannot wrap around to the right side of the screen. This makes it possible to either memorize or write down the menu structure so you can keep track of it. What is admittedly a challenge for us is learning the menus once you actually get into a game because a lot of these will wrap around, but unfortunately we're not going to get away from that with most mainstream games except for those relatively few where the menus talk completely. Here the best solution I've found is to write the menus down so that you at least will only need sighted assistance one or two times. Again you are probably going to have to do that whichever system you decide to get. As for getting into content on your memory stick if you have one, I am not sure how to get into games that you have on there as I've not really tried to do this yet, I mainly use my memory stick for movies or music. I am sure there are folks on here who know more than I do about getting into various kinds of content and doing more with their psp's who can help you out as well simply because I have not invested more time into it, I have figured out how to do what I want to do for the most part for now. For instance, the PSP has wifi capability that I have not even tapped into as yet because I have not felt the need to do so and because that part will take quite a bit of sighted assistance at least for the initial setup. Well I am off to work, have a good day.

In terms of navigating through the menus and I can see a little!

I am also a ps3 fan, if you want free online play, and what I believe the system that will end up having the better games like always, then get a ps3. If you like those massively multiplayer online shooting games then get an x-box, but you do have to pay for x-box live if you do. But if you wanna go for fighting games and rpgs, then take the ps3. I was actually even able to play heavenly sword on the ps3, which is an awesome game btw. -Original Message- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Yohandy Sent: Saturday, January 16, 2010 10:06 AM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] What's the best game console out there in terms ofaccessibility?

I've had no problems navigating. xbox fans will tell you that xbox 360 is a better system. go with your instinct I'd say, or try them both out before buying. - Original Message - From: "Darren Harris" To: "'Gamers Discussion list'" Sent: Saturday, January 16, 2010 4:02 AM Subject: [Audyssey] What's the best game console out there in terms ofaccessibility? > Hi all, > > I'm really wondering about this as I really want to get into the newer > games.
