It's all very easy for us to take the rise out of press releases - we often do - but in the case of blind mountaineer, Andy Holzer, blogging on Deep Silver's Cursed Mountain site, we figured... if Deep Silver's paying Holzer to do his blind mountain climbing, we're all for it.

The details are:

"On April 19, 2009, the team surrounding blind mountaineer Andy Holzer set out for its greatest adventure so far, climbing Cho Oyu in the Himalayas, the world's sixth-highest mountain at 8,021 metres. The team of seven is planning to reach Cho Oyu's summit towards the end of May. For the first time in history, a blind mountaineer, Andy Holzer, will then stand on top of a mountain higher than eight thousand meters.

Holzer will report on climbing Mount Cho Oyu in a blog at the official website for the exclusive Wii title Cursed Mountain."

Oh, the game is also mentioned, it's a questy game set on a mountain that is cursed... it has a hero who is tracking down his brother. The hero has "terrible visions (that) will disorient him, and ghosts and demons block his path."

Talking about climbing mountains... Marcus 'Dr Dee' SPOnG will be doing just that in the very near future. He's climbing the 4,400m Mount Whitney in the USA... and he's doing it for charity.help out here.
