games for disabled

[nick vaughan]

I have the use of one hand due to a disability. Could you
recomend games and/or adaption for one handed players as
I am getting bored playing card games on my pc. Are there
any games like first person shooting, driving or sport
games I could play. I would be very grateful for your
help.

You may want to look into a more full function controller that will let you
do everything you need one handed, then it will come down to just your skill
level. You might also want to look into voice command type stuff, that with
a good joystick should let you play a lot of things out there

lost most use of my fingers & hands, so bear with me pleqase.

try the total annihlation series old but fun

haven't found much but i'd like 2 know myself. after trying various
controllers, voice recog - nothing out there is very good yet which seems
strange because i worked on voice synth and recog at least 20 yrs ago. its
sad 2 see neither has progressed as fast as jt should have and i fault
microsux 4 that - i've seen em destroy many small compsnies to keep thei
products or designs off the market
on the hardware level i've tried many diff mics wired and wireless - and
purchased just about every brand available. since our voice changes dep on
time of day, health, accoustics and such its very hard for any existing
product to be accurate at all times. since games use short commands instead
of phrases or sentences it too becones hard 4 voice regog to always get the
commands corrct.
if anyone has further info i too would really like 2 know. theres some great
games out ther but they require at least 2 hands and then some. i never
liked keyboard conrolled games since thats a problem 4 me.
the best mouse i've found is the msoft explorer optical - not wireless but
usb/ps2
