Must say I too agree here- it's why I tend to dislike realistic RP-related
games/muds- why RP real life when I'm living it every day? If I am going to
RP, I want to RP something I can't do in RL- such as RPing a psychotic
killer?! lol
And yes, killing someone in Rl may be more fun than playing mortal kombat-
but you'll miss out on the part where you kill the same person over and over
again a thousand times!

Sorry Yohandi, but in terms of rhythm games, I'd have to agree with
Charles. Especially being a musician, it's much more appealing to bust out
my guitar, turn on the amp and just blast away. I can improvize without
being penalized, even... action games are something completely different.
Playing music in real life won't get you charged for crime.

why play GTA, when you can actually steal cars and beat up people in real
life? Why play Mortal kombat? might as well do real fatalities since
that'll be way more realistic. oh and tank commander? c'mon, use a real
tank! much more fun that way

About a game like Guitar Hero, I ask: Why pretend when you can do it for
real? I would rather plug my electric guitar into my amp, crank the
volume up on my computer or stereo speakers, put in a CD or tape, and
play along with my favorites, or work on learning a new one, or jam with
other musicians than use something artificial.

Yeah but here's the thing. how will you know if you can play it when you
actually aren't even willing to try the game out? just because a sighted
person tells you so? I had sighted people telling me oh you can't play
rock band, so don't even bother purchasing it. you gotta see the colored
games. well, I'm playing rock band. and to those asking how do I play it
when I'm blind, I won't even bother answering that question, mainly
because we've answered it plenty of times and it makes absolutely no
difference. Isn't it quite obvious that video games have sound? do you
guys somehow think that just cause it's called a video game this means
that it's video exclusive and a totally muted gaming experience? *sigh*.
someone mentioned they don't play rock band because they're musicians.
all I gotta say to that is wow. I really hope you don't always have that
outlook on life.

Hi Liam,
I totally agree. If I know there is a game out there that a blind
person can play that may indeed be intended for sighted players, then I
am willing to give it 100% concentration. Hell, I would even go out and
buy the console it was designed for, just to play that game. But if you
can't play it, because you need a degree of sight, then what is the
point in wasting investments and time just to completely end up
embarrassing yourself with it because you can't play properly like your
sighted peers can? In my opinion that's just prejudice.
Regards,
Damien.
