Blind gamer beats The Legend of Zelda

You see, Jordan Verner had a dream and a pact to one day beat The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. But there was one obstacle that stood in his path; he was blind. But no worries, a gamer by the name of Roy, along with the help of his online buddies, decided to help this player in need.

Roy and his buddies worked for over 2 years playing the game blind folded, and while they played, they copied down every key stroke. I repeat; EVERY KEY STROKE. This means every jump, every little roll, every little button press, and so on and so forth. The computer then read aloud the commands as Jordan did them.

I'm glad to say that Jordan beat the game last November, and he wanted everyone to know that any dream is possible, disability or no disability.

My friend was just saying that they'd hate to be blind, as they couldn't play video games. I will now show them this article.

Also, I now hold a deep respect for the people in mentioned this article.

The people who copied every movement must be great friends, but I'm still waiting for a blind man to do it himself without a friend at hand.

Cool story, though.
