[games_access] New game features closed captioning

[AudioGames.net]

Ho Corey,

Could you (or anyone else) perhaps send me a couple of screenshots for 
http://www.gameaccessibility.com? One that shows the closed caption during 
gameplay and one of the closed captions option in the menu (if there is?)?

Thanks!

Richard
