Blind gamer beats The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

On January 2, 2016, a gamer by the name of Terry "MegaTgarrett" Garrett made one of the greatest achievements in gaming history and did what many people would consider impossible, he beat The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Why is this so special, you may ask? Well, you see, Terry is completely blind, but he was able to go through the game from beginning to end anyway. He accomplished this feat using a set-up of surround sound speakers so he could listen to audio cues on both sides, save-states using an emulator so he could retry many sections of the game in case he got stuck, research, and a lot of trial-and-error. After 5 years, he finally beat the game and posted the video of his accomplishment on January 2, 2016.

When the news broke, many gamers and gaming news websites reported on the story and congratulated him for his efforts.
