A blind gamer has completed The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - nearly five years after starting the Nintendo classic.
Terry Garrett began his playthrough of Ocarina of Time on 8th May 2011 with the launch of a YouTube series designed to show he was capable of completing 3D games as well as 2D games (he'd previously finished Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee).
