Brice Mellen: Blind Gaming Wizard [Archive] - ForumsHQ

[iNViSiGOD]

Here is a cool gaming related story that everyone should read. A 17 year old blind kid (http://www.dogtagsgc.com/brice_mellen.asp) , yes…blind, who enjoys playing video games. It seems that the young Mr. Mellen is quite good at Soul Calibur and other fighting games and even turns his back to the TV to unnerve his opponents while playing. Cool story, go read it. Thanks to Marshal Rogers for the feel good link of the day.





That was until he found out we had and XBOX and Soul Calibur 2. He said that he didn't have much experience with Soul Calibur but he would like to play anyway. He completely amazed me with his ability to quickly learn the different characters and thier combo moves. He was running his way through the single play game in less than an hour. I was amazed!

I read about that in a gaming mag, it was pretty crazy. I have no idea how he knows where his char is on the screen vs. where someone else is...

perhaps "[his] defense is impregnable" :P
