    obviously...

    But that is so cool, if he could see he'll be even better. Good for him that he can play games even though he is blind.

    doh - that's what happens when you're debating two different ways to say the same thing, and end up saying neither :(

    If he manages to go through college learnign game design as he wants, he could make games that would have sounds specially for blind people. That'd be so cool.

    Good for him. Makes me think how much we all take playing games for granted.

    On Top-Gear a few months ago there was a blind driver that went round the track and beat Terry Wogan and Richard Whitley!

    reminds me of a teken god at uni, he played in a trance almost, so calm yet so focused. his trick was playing for short periods without looking at the screen.

    CSS doesn't have the same sound characteristics as a beatermup game has in css you can get killed from miles away without even knowing where your opponent is. That kid is cool wouldn't mind having a chat with him would make few excuses like i left my cntroler at home hehe but seem like a cool kid :) :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
