How To Get Rid Of Motion Sickness When Playing First Person Video Games?

by GamePlay on August 29, 2009

Every time I play video games that are first person shooters like “Halo” or in some cases third person games such as “Uncharted” and even in movies such as “The Kingdom” where the cammera shakes a lot. I get really dizzy and nauseous so, I have to stop watching the movie or playing the game becuase I feel like throwing up. Please let me know if you have any info on how to get rid of it or if you know what is causing this to me!!!!! Thank you…

lol, I get it when I watch my boys play Guitar Hero.
I don’t think there is a cure. Just don’t play so long.

I’ll tell you something. You are really into the game. Stop for a while. Come out relax. Have a cup of tea….play outdoors(or if not possible read some books) and then come back……Throughout the years of my gaming i’ve never felt like pissing just because i played first person shooters…LOL

I have the same problem! Some games give you the option of making the camera/frame rate slower, that helped for me.

Go down and buy you some motion sickness pills at any store. Some people who take long road trips will get them a box of those pills to make them from feeling the way you do. Try it, then you can whoop some butt on ‘Halo’ !

It happens to me too. I just avoid first person games altogether. Shooting people in first person isn’t worth getting sick. I can’t even watch someone else play the game.
