It's just a shame the big companies behind Modern Warfare 2; Bioshock 2; Mass Effect 2, etc. are doing nothing / very little to help :( That’s great news about the colourblind issues – the Indie developers have been really great about it:
Dadoogames are looking into an option for their Curling game;
Sorcery Games have been doing all sorts to help colourblind gamers on their game due out shortly;
Mstargames incorporated a colourblind option to Space Pirates.

You are not missing much with Fret Nice, it is a pain in the arse to play. You have to tilt (like activating star power) the guitar to jump and it just looks like you are having a fit. That and I have no idea what you are supposed to do :) Also wanted to mention about the colour blindness, been following your posts and it has really highlighted the issue for me. If I make any more games in the future it will be in my mind when designing them as I am sure I have been guilty of it in the past looking back. Hopefully the large companies take note as it can make the difference between a playable and unplayable game.

You got it in the heading, but your fingers must have went on autopilot for the text and picture - happens to me all the time, heh! I tried it today and it's on my avoid list, for requiring you to be able to differentiate between colours :p I like the use of Avatar in it, though :) Greed Corp looked like it could be good, but the music really did my head in! I don't like jazz, lol! Had to mute it pretty quickly :) Not tried Fret Nice as I no longer have a guitar for the 360, just the PS3. It’s Lazy Raiders, not Lazy Race, hehe!
