#151: Boomer Shooters!

from Blind Guys Chat

On this show we are speaking to super-duper influencer, Jessie Anderson all about accessible gaming. Not even 'Skinny Pete' from the TV series Breaking Bad knows as much about video games and consoles as Jessie. A veteran of the ATARI 2600 and Apple 2, Jessie walks us through how a blind or partially sighted person can navigate the world of gaming. More importantly, he tells us how to play some of the most popular games out there at the moment, using screen readers and magnifiers. Yes folks, we're talking all the favourites here; Call of Duty, Mortal Combat, Card World, Doom, Quake, The Last of Us, Forza Motor Sport, and the MODs which are the modifications that some gamers have done to make other games accessible. Whether you have an X-Box, PlayStation 5, or a PC, we've got you covered! Don’t forget to email us on [email protected] about what games you enjoy, and what your experience has been with accessible games. So, pop on your racing suit and helmet, keep a sharp eye/ear out for the secret loot stash, and press restart on the number one podcast game as recently voted by the zombies’ weekly newsletter: Blind Guys Chat. 16 out of 20 gamers prefer it to finger twitches!
