Game Accessibility Symbols

Three different symbols, in three different styles representing game accessibility. The first is of the Universal Symbol of Accessibility (the wheelchair user) with a joystick playing a variant of Space Invaders. The second is of Pac-Man in a wheelchair munching some dots. The third is of a hybrid large basic joypad merging into a wheelchair user.

In their on-going work to form a solid game accessibility ratings system, SpecialEffect are looking for a symbol to represent Game Accessibility. They’re asking for people’s thoughts on the above. Which grabs you?
