I have better control with 1st person. 3rd person is kinda cheating when playing online.

I prefer 3rd person, like Gears of War... however i think it wouldbe great to see more games likeRainbow six which seamlessly blend 1st and 3rd person shooters.

I like both...

It's refreshing to swap between the two (in different games)

well to each his/her own i suppose. but i think more ppl like it including myself is becuz

1: there are TOO many fps games

2: 3rd person looks more... movie like and i think a lot of people like to play movies.. including myself thats why i loved Gears of war it was so much like a sci-fi war movie it sucked me in reall quick...

anyway my 2 cents

now that is a hard question, i like 3th person because its cool to see your person moving and its easier to hid behind walls with it bout first person is cool by its cool to see your gun better so i think third person is better....

I like FPS better, it's like your the person actually fighting. Plus, it's the original type.

It's only cheating if everyone can't do it and if you get caught...third person for me.

I like both, mostly 1st person, but games like Gears and Max Payne are awsome 3rd person shooters.

actually it would have improved the gameplay... :P thats why i never got into halo that much its an ok game but eh... same for resistance gr8 story and stuff but the 1st person kinda killed it :( if resistanc and halo were like gears or at least the 3rd person view and it would have made it a lot more enjoyable..

I'd have to agree with u on Halo. I like games that give u a choice of whether u want to play in 1st or 3rd person (like Hitman: Bloodmoney). I think all shooters should be made that way.

TPS. I can't stand FPS. I wish every shooter had the choice of both ways to play.

I like both equally. I do think that first person offers better aim and is more engrossing while third person offers better maneuverability and a better view of your surroundings.
