[games_access] Retro Remakes 2006 Q & A's: Closed Captioning question

[Barrie Ellis]

Any thoughts on the following (especially yours, Reid):

I assume there are no real need for Closed Captions unless the sounds are important to the gameplay?

Eg, if a game's sounds are mainly lazers, explosions etc, I'm assuming they'd serve no purpose?

But if, say, you could hear off screen monsters getting louder as they get closer, those sound effects would justify it?
