Games for the disabled, and disabled games
Posted on:: April 8th, 2006
PC Gamer has run a list of five “games for everyone,” including those who can’t operate complex controls. They include:
Shades of Doom is a Doom-like game for the visually impaired. You can listen to the introduction here.
I was thinking of buying Midway Arcade Treaures Deluxe Edition for the PC, a $20 aggregation of old Midway Arcade games. But, at Amazon a couple of the reviews mention that it installs StarForce, a DRM device driver that does nothing for me except make it inconvenient to play the game. I don’t want a low-level app messing with my — my — computer.
So, I’ll make do with games that don’t try to take over my machine.
