Hmm.. I probably should have commentated while playing… ah well!

Here is a little about my disability, then I’l try and explain exactly how I manage the controller as you can’t really see it all.

I did have a fully functioning human body until I accidentally broke it on a bouncy castle. I broke my neck at level c5/c6 but with the way it healed i’m more of a c6/c7 complete. Which means that I’m paralyzed roughly from the nipples down. I have no movement in my legs or trunk, and my arms are affected meaning the muscles at the back are weaker. I also can’t move any of my fingers, which can be a bit of a bitch, but I get by fine with various techniques I have developed. My brain is 100% intact, so having old ladies coming up to you in the street and talking to you like you’re a child is a little annoying.. but I aint bitter.

So I play a lot of video games and it took me a while to figure out the techniques to allow me to play at a reasonable level (I do have my good games! ). So for MW2, I use my left palm or ball of my hand for the left stick, have to take my hand off it to use my thumb for the D-pad. I vary between using my right hand i a similar fashion for the right stick, and twisting my left hand over so I can aim while I shoot. I press L1 with my right index finger as I press R1 to shoot with the base of my thumb (kinda where it turns into a thumb from being wrist). For L2 and R2 I use my right middle finger whilst aiming the right stick with my left hand. For the buttons on the right I use my thumb, having to take my hand off of the right stick or trigger buttons. I switched to tactical so I crouch with R3, I had to as I kept going to aim and swinging my knife.. but now I see to be hitting circle by accident and doing the same! grr..

So that’s basically it, that’s how I roll! (no pun intended)

*Ok, I’ve had loads of people asking how I typed all that, every time I answer it my comment eventually gets pushed down… so… I use my thumbs, pushing down on them by moving my wrists and fore arm. It isn’t the fastest but I get by at a reasonable speed. I have tried a couple of different types of software, but to be honest.. I’d rather just do it myself!

If you have any questions leave a comment below, on my channel or in a PM if you don’t want the world to see.

We usually play with powerups off, but the host of this match forgot to do that. It is very annoying aiming out shrunk down players when you have no reticle.

This multiplayer game of Timesplitters 2 was played with a program called Xlink Kai ( http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/ ) .It lets you play PS2 games online even once their online servers are taken down. This means that playstation 2 games can be played online forever. The catch is it only works with games with a LAN mode. This is because the program uses a games LAN to trick the game into thinking players across the world are playing on its Local Area Network (LAN). Here is a list of games for North America that have a LAN mode so can be played online forever with Xlink Kai ( http://playstation2.onlineconsoles.com/phpBB2/content_gameslist_link.php ).

This game was played with
3 other members of the site http://www.onlineconsoles.com . We plan PS2 online and Xlink matches at this site, so check it out if you are a fan of Playstation 2, Gamecube, or Dreamcast online gaming.
