I'm accustomed to both. I used to hate FPS games, but since I bought Bad Company it completely turned that opinion around. I still really like 3rd person, so games like Gears and GTA are all good.
You only need to be in 1st person when your shooting at crap, the rest of the time you should be in 3rd so you can see your freaking character. Plus looking around in 3rd person is way more helpful, faster, easier. In the real world I could hear bad guys and wouldnt need 3rd person to find people but in a video game you mostly have visual. Now when I go to shoot at people I always aim/zoom unless its point blank.
Shooter wise, I thought they could never make a decent 3rd PS. Does anyone remember that plastic soldier game on the original playstation? That game got on my nerves... Ever since then I have tried to stay away for 3rd person shooters, until I played gears. Gears is perfect in 3rd person, and IMO it's the only good 3rd person shooter... So it's 1st person shooter for me.
