sorry if this is a dumb question. I am blind too. I just don’t get what games you guys can play on Xbox or PlayStation. Am I missing something?

The last of us part 2 is completely accessible from start to finish. This is the only current game that is though. There are means of playing other games but it's more down to some amazing enginuity from some commited gamers such as sightlesskombat. Look him up. The future is looking hopeful for more fully accessible games though thanks to some great campaigning by the community. Lots of hard work going on behind the scenes, or so it seems.

I heard about The Last of Us, and that was really awesome! However, I pdrsonally cannot justify buying a PlayStation five just to play few games.
Are used to see very well and played many video games. I sometimes spend time thinking how those games can be accessible for blind people, but to be honest I don’t see it how can be possible for those games to be accessible for us. As in many things, I could be wrong. :-)

This is my problem too. The price tag is just far too high with too little currently on offer. I’m watching with interest though and if the library of accessible games begins to grow then I’ll probably end up with one eventually. I’m sure I remember someone telling me that there’s a way to play the NBA games but I’ve not been able to find anything through google searches. I’d really like to know that.

Steady on, show off!!! Yeah, I think just one game doesn't warrant the cost of a console just yet. I'm hoping Sony come out with a cloud based model soon like xbox. I'm happy to try a subscription rather than a big purchase.

Yeah I really want some AA games as opposed to AAA games made fully accessible. It's a lot easier to make, say, Monster Train accessible than it is to make a game with a 3D environment accessible.

We can play Madden. They just added play calls during the game for the PS5. Mortal Kombat has always been playable along with Streetfighter and Tekken 7. Spiderman Miles Meralis is playable. Just look up Superblindman on Twitch. THe point is, there are tuns of games we can play and more coming out in the future.

I’ve listened to some of your videos. And to be honest with you, personally I don’t think I will have fun playing base on you were doing. On top of that, you have to spend so much money just to have that experience. If I’m going to spend that amount of money, it shouldn’t be just somewhat playable, I need it to be completely playable. I respect you though, because you are willing to spend that much money try something like that. Otherwise, the company will not even probably try to make any effort.
