My boyfriend loves them they are almost all he playes that and ffxi.
But I suck at them and don't really like them.
Until I played Rainbow 6 vegas I like that one.

Blegh.. I find them so hard to aim in.

I used to play them on the computer, but this was back when Doom 2 was popular. A long time ago...

I havn't been able to play them ever since I saw some random kid playing a cops shooter game at an arcade, he stuffed both guns down his pants as if they wern't fake and attached to a gameing systum... then he looked at me and nodded as if he was the coolest thing since bubble gum... I had to resist the temptation to kick his @$$ three ways to sunday for being a F$&*ing noob.

I dont' mind them; they're satisfying in a horribly violent way. I've got Metroid Prime 1 & 2 and I used to like Doom too. Metroid Prime is more of a puzzle solver with some bad guys thrown at you sometimes though. It may be a first person shooter platform but the game follows the classic Metroid idea of exploration and puzzle solving.

I don't like first person shooters that are really realistic, like the kind where you're shooting PEOPLE. I don't think they should make games like that, honestly.

well i say the 1st person shooter is a way for the best gamers to show there skill.
unlike other games there is so little luck involved hat u need nothing but skill.
sure on some games they have gun spread but get the game down and its all about skill.

rpgs are based big on more luck than skill. ect.

so when it come to the type of games i play.
FPS is FTW.

I'm indifferent. I don't usually play them, but occasionally it is fun to play those types of games. Especially with friends!

I get motion sickness when I play those. The art of aiming just right eludes me and I get sick after about 10 minutes.

sad thats what my dad said.
he trained him self to play tribes 1 and he no longer get sick.
but for some ppl hey have to get use to it or they will alway get sick when they play them.

its kinda like takeing a cruise. every 1 loves them and have the time of there lives. but there are thos that cant take them cuz they get sea sick.

thos ppl will never learn to have fun till they get use to it.

infact about 40% maybe even higher are ppl that make them self believe that they get sick when they play them so they do.

I'm crap at aiming, but playing fps with loads of people (who are in the same room as me, not over the 'net) is great fun, I've found.

It's just much more fun when you can shout things to people in the room (or in the next room, since one time I ended up stuck on a computer in a kitchen while everyone else was in the living room).

I don't whole heartedly agree with that.

I know for a fact that I play RPGs day and night, and I have the worst luck in the world. Only to counter that luck, and I have proven this over and over again to my friends, I am an amazing stratigist. I get through games when I am almost half the levle of my oponents, all because I know who to use when and what to do with what enemys in my way. So no, RPGs aren't all luck it dose take skill to get through it too.

I also think that FPS are all hit-or-miss, you ether got it or you don't. (( I don't, personaly))

Fps are fun when you are playing with your friends or with other people. I have no problem with them.

I am probably the worst at first person shooters. sweatdrop
I could get better, but I'd only want to play Halo and I don't have an X-Box or X-Box 360.

They're fun, but they aren't the best thing out there. I like playing some of them a lot. I've OO7 Nightfire, Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime Hunters, and maybe one or two others I can't remember off the top of my head. I like them, but I like my RPG's too much. mrgreen

well i wasnt tryin to say its nothing but luck its just has alot of luck in it. and u cant say it doesnt. and yes u need skill to play rpgs its just there is enough luck in the games that it plays passed skills.

lets take WoW.
2 mages lets say.
frost mage vs fire mage for a duel a 60 frost mage will have a 50% chance to crit fire mages can built up there crit chance but its by 10's and only 3 crits allowed. with a 3 minute cooldown.
now the frost mage will win hands down. but oh wait the frost mage got unlucky the fire mage resisted most of the frost mages attacks.
fire mage crtis with pyro blast and does a chain of instacasts and crtis every time.( i have seen this luck happen many times on both sides.)
then lets give another one.
frost mage has 1 hit left on the fire mage,yet fire mage has 2 hit left.
fire mage resisted the attack. fire mage crits and kills the frost mage.

see thats the luck i dont like to play with.
as in fps its not all about aim shoot miss or hit.
its all about skill. ( some of them have luck due to gun spread)
u have to lisen for there team know where the shots are coming from.
movement to allow dodgeing and geting around ect.
aim and tactics.

see rpgs have tacitcs to as formovment very few alow good movment to get u ahead of the game.
u can make it so u crit more or have more life ect.
but again there is alot of luck in the games.

I'm so bad at FPS. Especially Halo. The only one I was remotely good at was Jedi Outcast for the PC. Light sabers are awesome tools if you can't aim.
