It's not that hard to grasp. It's just trial and error. Lots of trial and error.

Wow this actually pretty amazing. I can see some missteps in that video but most of the play seems to be flawless.

I'd find it more interesting to watch a video of him playing an area he's not obviously very familiar with.

Wow this stuff is on Kotaku and Destructoid

An incredible feat, that makes an Oddworld fan like me very happy. Terry Garrett, a 23 year-old mechanical engineering student from Colorado Springs, has beaten this title by using only his sense of hearing. Pretty inspirational. The sound design team should also take a bow.

The folks over at Oddworld.com host a very extensive interview with Garrett, who gives an explanation on how he has accomplished this amazing task. Check out the video below, if you haven't already. It's an interesting watch. It makes you realise just how great the advanced sound design is on these Abe games.

That's amazing! I can't imagine how I would do it without being able to see!

Good for him!

But it kinda makes people who can't complete the game who have there eyesight really bad

That's awesome.
It's funny to see how not long ago I heard someone say try to beat it with your eyes closed (blind).
And here's a guy who did it.

He should of got an achievement worth 700G.
