Question Of The Day: First Person Shooters Or Third Person Shooters?

Question Of The Day: First Person Shooters Or Third Person Shooters?

Which is more fun? Most games now days on console are coming out as a 3rd person shooter, or with 3rd person shooter functionality where PC games are still sticking to the whole first person set up.

Just remember, which is more fun — not which is better for competition!

Question Of The Day has depreciated. Check out Question Of The Week instead.

    I really can’t say :grin: It all depends on the game I guess! I mean, there are some hectically entertaining games on both sides…the only factor I can consider really is that I prefer first person shooters for online and competitive, as I have far more fun with them online, but otherwise when it comes to single player I probably like third person shooters more. But then I remember games like Crysis (FPS) and I can’t decide again :razz:

    fps by far, third person shooting feels unreal. like you’re only observing the action

  • t0asty_the_penguin

    3rd person, it may not be the best experience from a shooting point of view but it gives the game scope for so much more.

  • Nitrate

    So it depends on what the scope of the game is?

    It all comes down to the game. If the game is good the mode will be good, may it be fps or 3rdps.

  • Itachi-owns-all

    Definitely 3rd person

    FPS AND THIRD Person :D Evidence of both = Unreal Tournament 3 / Half Life 2 / Doom 3 for FPS
    DEAD SPACE for Third person :P
