Not personally, but I know LOTS of people who do from playing FPS'. Some are worse than others. I know some who are fine on one game and awful on another. I believe it's to do with the FOV.

I know Goldeneye on the N64 was one of the worst for making people sick.

Perhaps try 1st person?

Fine here, and I sometimes suffer from motion sickness.

That tends to be in FPS games that are indoor in tight twisty areas though. No problems with GRAW as its mainly based in large openish areas.

No problems with GRAW but i did have to stop playing HL 2 on my pc because after 5 mins playing i wanted to throw up

Same for me, after serveral weeks I got to the boat level and that finished me off.

It's weird, I can play Counter-Strike and UT2004 quite happily, but other FPS's just make me heave.

some of the on screen effects for when the cross com messes up makes me go a bit wired!!!!!!!! :confused:

Not played it enough to notice it yet, as people have said its quite common on FPS, hadnt heard about it on 3rd person shooters. HL2 was fine for me, apart form that git big bridge, where my legs started shaking

UT2004 is the only game to make me get a feeling in my stomach when falling from a high ledge! It's fun though!

I've been 100% fine with GRAW. Condemned made me feel like I had done a few minutes in the tumble drier at times though

TBH I'd thought you'd have been ok with the 3rd person view.

lol yes should have tried thwt

I never used to have this problem but I seem to get it more now.

Metroid Prime on GCN = No problem
Metroid Prime 2 = Headaches and feeling sick

They are the same engine! :confused:

COD2 gave me severe headaches until I ran it in HiDef. :mad:

Codemned makes me feel sick.

PDZ Gives me light headaches.

I'm going to stick to PGR, its safer that way.

i've had no problems with GRAW.

the only game to cause motion sickness was Half Life 2. other than that I can play FPS's for hours without being affected, but for some reason HL2 got me.

Don't doctors call this 'Doom Syndrome'? Quality name tbh

Feel sorry for anyone who suffers from this

I don't know what I would do without my FPS fix.

Wimps.

THC_SsSsSnake · 14 Mar 2006 at 22:35

come near me and i'll puke all over ya

dannyjo22 · 14 Mar 2006 at 22:43

I only get it on crts, dont suffer with it on TFT. The first time i noticed it was playing doom on my 32X. Took me a while to work out what it was. Stopped playing them for years and found RTS instead

Been alright though since getting tft.
