I don't usually get sea-sick too easily but those First Person Shooter games just get my head reeling!! :confused:

Anyone else need to take something for motion sickness while they ready themselves for Unreal battle? :Q

Counter-Strike makes my head spin like sea sickness, but Quake is fine. An old 3D Sonic game on the Sega used to do the same thing.

I'll skip the pills though.

My ex-wife got sea-sick from playing Doom. I can't imagine what she would be like playing UT or Quake III. I'd probably have to clean vomit out of my keyboard.

crack. that'll do the trick. it does wonders in video games, although you do get a nasty hangover the next day. heh, this is what my friend's dad told me (he's a chemist).

OMG!! One of my summer jobs while I was going to school was as a security guard. We had this old pos 486 and the only game I could get to run on it was some old version of Jack Nicklaus golf. When you changed your view to the left or right the whole screen redrew to show the new perspective. A guy I worked with had to close his eyes when that happened cuz it made him queasy!!!!

No trouble here.. last time I heard anyone mentioning this type of thing was way back when Doom first came out.

All the FPS's I play (Quake, CS, TFC, etc) don't make me sick at all. No drugs needed.

The only FPS I don't get woozy playing is SWAT3 (but only because it's slow paced). The worst game though, IMO is not a FPS but Sonic Adventure. I can only play one level in a sitting :disgust: :confused:
