Blind Gamer preps for Kombat in Japan
Brice Mellen is one of the best players at the DogTags gaming center in Lincoln, Nebraska. And he's blind. We've written about the 18-year old gamer and his peculiar talent before and now it looks like his fame is spreading around the globe. By using sound to gauge his performance in the game, Brice has been able to defeat his challengers, as he did on Sunday in a best out of three competition. He has been invited to travel to Japan later this month to compete with some of Japan's best Mortal Kombat players for a special on Nippon TV.
There has to be some kind of psych-out factor at play too. Sort of like getting beat at Soul Calibur by a little kid... not that I have... 'cause I wouldn't... but some other people have...
