| | First-person shooter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A first-person shooter (FPS) is a combat computer or video game genre, which is characterized by the player’s on-screen view of the game simulating that of the character or First Person view. | | | The first-person shooter can be considered a sub-genre of shooter games, though almost all other two dimensional shooter games, especially shoot 'em ups, are more concerned with the gameplay mechanic of dodging than of precise aiming. | | | The realism in FPS games can vary from arcade shooters, which are fast paced and have unrealistic elements (such as the player being able to shrug off bullets or falling large distances) to levels approaching reality, where players are routinely killed by a single shot. |

| | The Guide - First-Person Shooters |
| | This game has gone through a few profound changes since it was first proposed, but the many new visual effects and gameplay elements that have been proposed for the game are very impressive. | | | Regardless, it is clear that the first-person shooter will remain a large and powerful genre in computer gaming. | | | Descent was the first title to actually use 3D successfully, with impressive and popular results, but Quake was the first title that used 3D in the traditional first-person shooter. |

| | IGN: First-Person Shooter Blowout |
| | Action games and shooters, independent of one another, are ancient genres, but the 3D shooter genre (its taken on its own size and breadth to be a genre now) is growing, in size, if not in quality. | | | This game differs from others of the genre in that, first of all, it has a variety that pushes the envelope. | | | Romero, in an attempt to break from the typical first-person shooter, is putting more emphasis on strategy, even going so far as to incorporate an experience point system (similar to that of RPGs). |

| | This was difficult to test because the game was fine in the editor, and in the full compiled game you have to run through the entire first level to see if the second level works - as one of the most noticeable missing features is a lack of a save game feature. | | | In other words, make a change, compile, go into the game to run to the error to see if it crashes, then repeat. | | | Well, they do if you actually play it from the editor. |

| | Yes those are great games, and they are played from a first-person perspective, but really, they share too much in common with a role-playing game like Morrowind to be called true first-person shooters. | | | The games in this list exhibit one or more of these qualities and have all affected the way shooters are made in a tangible and lasting way. | | | And while a compelling multiplayer mode isn't a strict requirement for a true first-person shooter, our list shows that a shooter without a strong multiplayer component just doesn't quite hold up over the long run. |
