this guy is quite the gamer, if you have the time to check out his page them by all means click here: http://www.youtube.com/user/genuinescorruption (Copy/Paste if it doesn't hyperlink)
now, the reason why i call this gamer awesome isn't because he has Godly Gaming Skills, it's because he plays video games BLIND! He's been Blind since birth with a developmental stage anomaly known as Optic Nerve Hypoplasia; (note that he hasn't explained if it's just one eye or both, so if it is both then it's Bilateral OPH) which in laymen's Terms, is the underdevelopment of an unborn babies optic nerves (as the name suggests) and is playing games with his sense of sound only, now i know there are others that can do this as well, but what's truly great is that he is showing the entire world that people with the loss of a sense can still do things.

That's really cool.

This is how he plays:
Quote:
 
The way I know where to attack is by stereo sound. I hear which direction the boss is coming from, and turn link in that direction until the sound is coming on equilly loud in both sides, meaning that I'm lined up with the boss. That's how I know how to aim at them.
If you would like me to teach you how to play Zelda bosses blindfolded for extra proof, I will.


I couldn't imagine the game being too interesting, however...

Wow, that's really awesome. Reminds me of this professional Halo 3 MLG player who plays with 1 hand and an elbow (he's missing a hand.) I think his name is Brawny or something like that, not sure.

Here I am, I joined after reading your replies.
I must say, I am so glad that the word is getting out, posting these videos and discussing my gaming experiences has been quite an exciting adventure over the past two years.
Currently I'm working towards completion of Zelda OoT, and trying to learn how to beat Gruntilda in Banjo Kazooie at the same time.

I saw the thumbnails some of those OoT vids. I'm going to check them out when I get a chance.

@Bucs: easy, i have him on Skype and told him about this place after i posted about him

and Pure, i don't know if he'd be good at fighting games cause with the way the sound files are for those types of games, cause he senses direction from sound and, even in melee and other fighting games this is done, the sound files are made loud enough that i can let computers go after each other on one side of the stage while standing on the other and the sound file still sounds like they are duking it out right in front of my character
