Does anybody get motion sickness after playing an fps game?
maybe after playing it for a long time sure :P games make me tired quick, and if you fight the tiredness you could get Motion Sickness/nausea, it all depends on your monitor and refresh rate as well

No, not really. Then again, the last time I played an FPS was on a 14-inch CRT an it was only for a few minutes.

Some games can make me dizzy sometimes, but I can't say I get motion sickness, no.

I'm NOT kidding around here, but your post ALMOST gave me motion sickness a minute ago. I think the only game where I did get motion sickness was a racing arcade game where the cabient/screen MOVED exactly with your car in-game. Lots of tilts in that game!

with a signature like that I can see why T-Virus, *chuckles* :laugh:
but anyway another thought is the movement in a games engine too that causes motion sickness, one of the Rogue Sphere games I think it was it happened to me

Half life 2 used to have that affect on me. Not since I got a new 'puter though.

Why?
I guess I could get motion sickness after too much playing, but not because of the game itself.

The game I was affected by was Prey, but that was due to the gravity walks :P
I have actually gotten nausea from a lot of fps games.
FEAR, Oblivion, and Prey are just a few.
I've played Halo, and Halo 2 but those seem to give me no trouble.
Never got nauseous from playing a video game. Low frame rates might make you dizzy, however.

That would probably explain why I felt it with my old 'puter but not my new one.

Only game I ever really had that problem with is Call of Duty 2, because of how intense it is.

I dont really get motion sickness or nausea, but my eyes sometimes get incredibly sore after long hours gaming.
Lack of blinking can do that.

Well, no, I've never gotten motion sickness from any type of game, it's like getting kicks out of those virtual rollercoaster rides; a line between reality and virtual reality.
Then again, it's just me.

lol @ that, cute Olin +rep :)
I do take a break from games every once a while but I don't play for more than about 3 solid hours at a time
