Digitec Podcast Episode 126: "Being blind doesn't mean games can't challenge me"
Daniele Corciulo is blind and tells us how he can still play God of War Ragnarok. We also talk about new chip factories in the US, The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and the unusual tactics social game Marvel's Midnight Suns.
Accessibility is increasingly becoming an issue in games. This makes it possible for blind people like Daniele Corciulo to enjoy titles like "God of War Ragnarok" virtually without outside help. He tells us in the podcast how this works and where there is still potential for improvement. He also has a few comments on the digitec website.
After that, it's on to the news. Apple wants to start sourcing chips from the USA in 2024 and Microsoft is offering Sony, Nintendo and Valve a ten-year deal for "Call of Duty".
The big screen also has room for improvement.
On the big screen, it gets Christmassy with "The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special" . In the Games Corner we review "Marvel's Midnight Suns", where there is more chatting than fighting. Somewhat disappointing is the sci-fi horror game "The Callisto Protocol". But perhaps the biggest surprise of the year is "Need for Speed Unbound". It's really good.

As a child, I wasn't allowed to have any consoles. It was only with the arrival of the family's 486 PC that the magical world of gaming opened up to me. Today, I'm overcompensating accordingly. Only a lack of time and money prevents me from trying out every game there is and decorating my shelf with rare retro consoles.
From the latest iPhone to the return of 80s fashion. The editorial team will help you make sense of it all.
