    In Other News: Blind Gamer Kicks Asses!

    Being that guy's friend would be totally awesome. It would be cooler than having a gun-toting CIA agent in Mexico for a friend.

      Yeah I just read that today on Fark. I know someone just like that, beat Friday the 13th on Super Nintendo, and he's legally blind.

      Read the people's comments of the article on Fark, so idiotic. "Haha, let's see how good he is when I play him at (insert game here). I'd slaughter him!" Wow.

                  Can you feel me near you?

                  I think that's quite amazing. Especially considering he was blind at birth and has never been able to watch what he's playing.

                      He's like that Samurai who was blind but kicked everyone's ass. Only, instead of slicing his enemies with sharp metal objects, he destroys their ego one keystroke at a time...slowly hacking away at their sense of worth until they are nothing more than sacks of meat with greasy ponytails.

                          if he is legally blind and can kick ass, we have found a true gamer, or a total NERD

                              This guy=True gamer.
                              Wow. He was really dedicated to playing games. That is awesome.

                              On a sidenote, this reminds me of an article written quite a while ago in EGM.

                                      I'm proud of him...it seems like he comes off as a very humble and modest person. Good for him.

                                          Just so you all know one can be legally blind and still see. A friend of mine is legally blind. He just has REALLY strong prescription glasses.

                                          Also, simple fighters like MK would be easy as hell to play blind. One can simply mash buttons and do well.

                                              Um, if you read it, you would know that he can sit backwards and play and still kick peoples' asses.

                                                      Zatoichi! The blind masseuse/ samurai.

                                                      That's pretty cool. I doubt i could beat him. I can see
                                                      and I still suck at fighting games.
