I play abstract games, because any of the other ones make me seasick. Not boats, just any of the 3D first-person shooter or over-the-shoulder stuff. If it's more sophisticated than Sonic the Hedgehog, my brain just can't.

My wife has the same seasickness problem with first-person games. Ironically, put us both on a ferry in a storm, and she'll be the one guzzling greasy chips in the cafe while I'll be the one spewing over the side.

See, that's the thing, I'm FINE on a boat.

Yeah, I'm the same. I can't play games like Oblivion or Fallout 3 because the 3rd person view doesn't work very well and the 1st person makes me ill.

I'm fine on boats though!

(Mind you, right now I've got labyrinthitis, so even typing this comment makes me feel sea-sick!)

Same, only I am also bad on boats, cars, and buses.
