Dragon Age Origins has fantastic subtitling including optional audio description, and a host of other nice accessibility features. It won ablegamers game of the year for 2009. It's PC / 360 / PS3. Dragon Age 2 is out now, I haven't played it though, don't know if it has the same options available.
If you're after something that's assistive tech compatible then Forza 3 is a really nice one to show, works with two switches.. they also have an ablegamers game of the year award behind them.
