Has anyone here figured out a way to play Playstation, or Xbox with only 1 arm? The last video game system I was able to play was Nintendo 64 because the control could be used with one arm, other then that I'm stuck with only being able to play computer games with a joystick, or how about Nintendo Wii, has anyone tried it out, are there games that only require one arm?

My oldest son has the Nintendo WII. The controler is held with 1 hand, so that would be a great option for 1 handed playing. It's also a lot of fun, I've played the WII sports that comes with it.

Hey if you like WW2 fighter games check out Aces High 2 it's a MMO, it's free for the first 2 weeks, after that it's $14.95 a month, but well worth it, usually a couple hundred people on at any given time. If you end up playing it let me know, I'm the CO of a squadron in the game called Clowns of Death.

My son, who is 12, plays Playstation and X-Box with one hand. He holds up the controller and uses his chin for the left side. It's pretty amazing! He's also quite good. He can beat any friend at any game. He has also played his game boy using his left heel and right hand. He also uses it one handed by putting it on a flat surface and just going back and forth with the same hand.
I think he's adapted well!

Well thats understandable that you can't afford it, but give it a try for the 2 week trial, you don't need to use a credit card or anything for it, you'll have a lot of fun with it if you like IL2, I've played IL2 & trust me if you like that you'll love AH2, plus if you want me and my squad participate in an event the game does Friday nights at 11P.M EST called "Friday night squad operations", about 400-500 players attend, they do a battle from WW2 were half the squads fly Axis, and the other half fly Allies. Right now were doing one called "Fire in the Philippines" it's the USAF vs. IJN. Each event is done over 3 Fridays in a row, each frame last 2 hours and it's a 1 life event, meaning when you get killed your done. It has a built in radio so you can communicate with each other over a mic. So give it a try, I'd love to fly with another BPI, and like I said it's free for 2 weeks with no CC needed. So if you do sign up let me know your in-game ID and I'll give you more info on the FSO event if you can make it.

Check out my squads website, were the "Clowns of Death".
