FPS

A FPS is a First Person Shooter game.

It works using a first person perspective, with what is on the screen action wise being what you would see if you were the character, meaning the environment and your weapon.

They often include the addition of a health meter of some sort, as well as something to indicate how much ammo you have left.

FPSes as a genre tend towards either having little if any plot whatsoever, or a decent enough plot to get the story moving.

FPSes have also become an increasingly frequent target of Sues and Stus, usually ones who kick arse harder than the main characters in the game.

Popular FPS's include:
 * Counter-strike
 * Half-Life
 * Halo
 * Killzone
 * Call of Duty
