    In reply to Hands On: Metal Gear Solid Touch iPhone App
    Yay! One more game I won't be playing:


    "and after a period of time will either flash green (friendly!) or red (kill!)."


    What the FJSDKLFJKL@#R!!! is wrong with game developers? Are NONE OF THEM COLOR-BLIND?!? Christ, if you are going to make something that the game is DEPENDENT ON [to figure out if it is friendly or bad] then the developer needs to default it to COLOR-SAFE colors [aka color-blind friendly], allow hacking of the colors [doesn't work on a closed platform like the iPhone], or make an option for color-blind friendly mode.


    I am really getting fed up with how many games have came out lately that cannot be played by color-blind people.


    It would take them all of 30 minute to add a feature that would help as much as 10% of the potential game players. Bah!

    @the_village_idiot:


    sir, you can't even imagine what it's like to have screwy color vision, although really, maztecs request is a bit much. i have green-red color problems, and it has fucked me over in COD4, but green good, red bad is just a way of life, so i just deal with it.

    Wasn't there supposed to be a select int here as well? When I get home, I may just dust off the NES and break out Contra.

    On the main menu screen in contra 2x select == 0x select, since it was only a two option toggle.
