Disadvantaged Gamer - Apr 21, 2004 00:06
Its a real bitch somtimes to play multiplayer games or any game somtimes. Especially one that involves color coordination. Why? Because I' m colorblind. Sports games can be a hassle when ya cant tell which team is yours. Subtle color differences in some online games is just horrid. I don' t mind at all tho cuz Ive learned a few ways to get past it.

I was wondering, does ne1 else have certain gaming disadvantages?

Um, not usually. I skate a lot, and I fall on my hands a lot, they get all cut up and bloody, making it hard to play sometimes.

Umm, i have arthritis, so i can' t play for long periods of time, (i can' t sit for longer than 20 minutes) and i have limited use of a thumb and a pinky, so, it gets to be akward, but not so much a disadvntage.

See, grad school, no time to really play games. It is okay if I sit the right way, I can sometimes handle longer playing sessions. The hand thing really depends on the game (it is my left hand that is affected...can you tell by my typing?)

I can' t sit for real long. My knees start hurting, (probally from sports). So I can' t play games a whole lot at one time.
