Gaming With a Headmouse?

Posted by timothy on from the kbounce-is-certainly-addictive dept.

seanbhoy writes "Do you have any information on games that can be played by myself? I am disabled from the neck down, and use a headmouse to access the Internet, etc. To get an idea of my disability, I have almost the same injuries that Christopher Reeve had. Can you point me in the direction of similar would-be gamers and computer users? Also do you have any information on games that may work with the headmouse I use?"

    It may sound strange, but a part of me wishes I was you. I'm a gamer like a great many who may be reading this site, and I see a future where we are all "gamers". We will have no bodily form, rather a mind that can manipulate reality (or virtual reality) much as we play video games now. There was already in early 2004 a successful implant that allowed some hearing by inputting directly into the brain (midbrain). Not if but when, and all that.
