[games_access] Brainstorming Tomb Raider 2013

[Chris Ellis]

Hi Sandra,

  The new Tomb Raider did change a lot of things from the older games, but
we found that it was generally fairly accessible when we looked at it. (
http://www.dual-ring.net/tomb-raider-accessibility-review/ ).

I am interested that you note that the QTE's can be turned off.  We had the
most difficulty with these and ended up writing work arounds to reduce
them to single key presses (
http://www.dual-ring.net/replace-button-mashing-in-tomb-raider-with-one-button-press/
)
but if there's a way to turn them off or reduce their numbers we would be
very interested in finding out about it!

Thanks!
