[games_access] games_access Digest, Vol 54, Issue 17

[Reid Kimball]

Tomb Raider Underworld has something called Player Tailoring that I
plan to look at. I think it has implications for game accessibility
from a game design perspective. Allowing players to tweak how much
damage they take, thus making the game easier. Sandra, if you have
used the player tailoring options I'd like to know your opinion of
them. Do they make the game easier? Are they missing anything?
