Some interface tweaking is usually necessary to make the game accessible and the solution isn&#8217;t always ideal. That&#8217;s the situation I faced the other day when I was trying to play a game I had purchased as a gift to myself (<a href=\"http:\/\/dragonage.bioware.com\/\"><i>Dragon Age<\/i><\/a>, in case you&#8217;re curious). The game has a goofy camera control interface and I wasn&#8217;t happy with the solution I had come up with, so I did a little web research to see if I could find another fix. In the course of my research, I found a new on-screen keyboard that has a repeat function. In other words, I can hold down a key just as if I was holding down a key with my finger. My existing keyboard doesn&#8217;t have that function and its absence has always been something of an irritant. Little features like this make a huge difference in terms of accessibility. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, problem solved.
