Seriously, this is the second time this has happened. I'm replaying through the game on Veteran mode, trying to get to the satellite uplink, and I slowly but surely feel myself getting more and more nauseas. I had to step outside in order to get myself some fresh air, even though my apartment is probably slightly cooler than it is outside. I was just gonna get back to the ship and save and quit, but fuck that, I've left it running and am waiting for this to die down.
The first time this happened, was a few months back when I was first playing the game. I think I was trying to get hidden federation landing pad with the gunship enhancements to work, and I was in a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT APARTMENT, and then all of a sudden, nausea. I actually think I left the game running that time too, not to mention I was practically afraid to go back and play it.
Fuckin jungle.

There are games that do that for me, I dont quite remember which ones they were, but there were a few games that made me feel like I was going to throw up for no reason at all.
I wish I could remember the games, I think sometimes the first level of THPS gives me a stomach ache.

I used to have the same problem when playing a FPS; the worse was Time Splitters 2 even though I love the game. I found that if you take a short maybe 10-second stop between the constant moving it helps.
I don’t know if it’s an adjustment thing or not but now I can play just about any game without getting motion sickness except for that remake of A Bard’s Tale. After a minute of that, I’m ready to hurl.

Time Splitters! Thats the one. God I remember that game like it was yesterday. I think I even barfed. I dont know what it was, but I always felt sick and it was such a good game.
Is it motion sickness?

This happens to me with most, but not every FPS. I remember Half Life 2 gave me particularly bad motion sickness. I usually couldn't even last an hour and it took a good 20-30 minutes to recover so I said fuck it and stopped playing. Somehow though I could go for hours in Counterstrike without a problem.

I used to be able to play Doom and Quake for hours without any problems when I was younger, but I get motion sick from any FPS nowadays.
