As far as it goes I like these the best. When colors are involved red/green, blue/red, blue/green,there are people out here that cannot tell the difference between these colors. I must admit that I do not know of any color blind gamers, but I am sure there are some out there. Food for thought...


Colour blindness is a genetic disorder that causes the precise colours of red and green to be confused and that is why driving licences are not issued to those who are colour-blind.
In my case it is intensity blindness, like when you look directly to the sun and burn your retina and see nothing for some minutes. This might be related to another illness called night-blindness where the patient looses sight temporarily when changing ambient illumination from strong to dim.

My case is neither this, nor that; it is simply caused by fatigue and in such a case all closely bright colours are indifferently recognised as high intensity light. The hue should help a lot to identify a difference but when it comes to very light yellow and white, the difference is quite marginal and requires very healthy eyes to know the difference. I hope this clears it up.

Dad - are you sure about this? Maybe it is diffrent in Canada...but here i do believe men are (it is a X chromosone carried gene) given drivers licences. or one, though they can not see green and red, they can see the diffrence. I knew someone who was colour blind - and he saw green as purple...red he saw as a diffrent colour.
Plus, the lights are always the same...in this sequence...red, yellow, green left to right. They can memorise where the colours should be. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
