News from the Road: February 3, 2007

So, we've been out on our AI world tour on our way back to California -- San Francisco, to be exact -- for the final episode of season one that we'll be bringing you LIVE from the Game Developers Conference and it's been rough out here. I think we have found the WORST example of an inaccessible game in Crete! That's right, during our show auditions in Crete the judges were blown away by one designer who we just couldn't believe wasn't just putting us on (the jury's still out on that). Judge Robert Florio -- who you KNOW doesn't mince words (and that's putting it politely...) -- literally spat out the Quad Controller he was gaming with and was quoted as saying: "You MUST be kidding, right? What part of 'accessible' meant 'inaccessible' to you? Get OUT! Your existence has wasted our time."

OUCH! Show Co-Host Michelle Hinn was later quoted as saying "Yeah, if that designer was dyslexic like me, I'd think 'damn, that's some crazy out there cool shit, totally rebellious'...but for a linear -- that's what we dyslexics call you 'regular' people -- unf**king believable...completely devoid of meaning." In a seemingly unrelated incident, Hinn was arrested later that night outside a disco in Heraklion for indecent exposure. Back to Ouzo rehab!

That's it for today -- And remember, stay tuned right here for the latest Accessibility Idol gossip!
