Easy question for shooters fans - First-Person or Third-Person

I'm a huge fan of shooters and I'd like to know who prefers First-Person Shooters over Third-Person Shooters and vice-versa.

Personally, I prefer the Third-person perspective. Before, it was the total opposite. But Gears and Resident Evil 4 made me a fan of TPSes. I love to see my character in action and when I'm playing FPSes, I just feel like something is missing (even though my preference never interferes with my overall appreciation of a game). So, what about you guys?

i like games where you can switch inbetween. FPS is great because of the easy accuracy. Third Person is good because of the ability to see whats comming up behind you. they both have good things about them. but im more a FPS guy

you should put an option for both cuz they are both great and that is what i would rather choosedstryr13

I think I can't change it. But you're right, I should have add "Both" or "No Preference". Anyway, the poll just compiles answers so you (not personally, you "generally") can just type your answer.

i think there is a way you can edit it but i am not sure

if not then i still select BOTH :D

this is by no means an easy question. lol

I love em both. 

FPS for PC shooters, TPS for console shooters

mouse+keyboard focus on aiming

joysticks focus on movement

Same here.

First Person Shooters: PC

Third Person Shooters: Consoles

I like TPS better because my field of vision is larger, but FPS make it seem more real since it's like you are the person and you are looking out of your own eyes.eclipsed4utoo

agreed

Yeah I agree MGS was the first game I played that used that (even though MGS is more stealth than shooter) and I thought it was very clever. Back to the poll though I voted for TPS because I've always preferred them but I just loved RFOM, I'ts the first FPS I've bought. Always rented them before that.

Third person for me. I feel lost in first person view.Games like resident evil, mgs,and i even bought oblivion bc you can switch to third person.psextreme

I didn't know you could do that on oblivion. You've just sold the publishers another copy of that game write to them and ask for a comission cheque:lol:
