Hi, I would suggest that I know of:
Sound rts: that's not perfect yet by any means but I think it's an excellent work in progress. Feels totally like an age of empires cossacks type game. Tank commander. It's just like battlezone. Again that's an excellent piece of work as to is lownwoolf. Packman, that's about the best I've have ever seen for direct conversion from mainstream to blind friendly games. They would be my suggestions. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Richard Sent: 30 September 2007 12:09 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Electronic Arts games Hi Guys, Hi, Just in case you might not know: we (that is, me and Michelle) do monitor what is going on here on this list and we already use much of what is posted on this list as input for our presentations, like for instance our most recent presentation at GDC Austin (https://www.cmpevents.com/GDAU07/a.asp?option=C&V=11&SessID=5857). We (IGDA- GA-SIG) have been raising this issue to major companies for several years now already, up to the point to even having conversations with the Will Wright (The Sims, SimCity, Spore) himself in person. However, we DO need all the backing we can get!!! The E For All Expo will include a demonstration of several blind-accessible/audio games. Which games would you prefer to show the public?
