Agreed. Not to mention that as I already said it would be illegal, even if
one could get one's hands on the game's source code, to modify it in the way
a totally blind person would need. And I'm sorry to say, but Ii caught a
distinct whiff of entitlement syndrome in the initial post.

Vender: No pizza. Only Khlav Kalash.

And in an ideal world, that would be peachy. However, in the real world,
it's not always possible to have sighted help, so you have to learn to
adapt. One possible solution that might work is to start some kind of
website where people submit descriptions of the layouts of screens for
these games, as well as the actions required to play them without sight.
Maybe something like this already exists, in which case there's no need to
reinvent the wheel. But instead of bemoaning the hopelessness of a
situation, try to find ways to change it. A little proactive creativity
can often go a long way. Smile.

Subject: [Audyssey] a thought for all game makers out there
i have thought about game emulater for different kind old video games.
since people can get old video games emulater for free on the web and
download the thing so that they can play their favoret games on the
computer why can't someone convert games like mortal kombat into an audio
game some of you people on this list think that all of us can have someone
come to our home to help us with video games. but some of us don't have
it so easy as others so that why i will always ask for converted game to
audio. so that why i can't play any of the sighted people games because i
live alone and no one will come to my home and tell me what is on the
screen and i don't think we the blind should remember whats on the screen
we should be able to go to the game and have a voice to tell us what is on
the menus and whats our character is doing and what are surrounding areas
is doing aswell. or make some type of sound
