Please do this:

1. Pick up a gun
2. Hold it casually, but somewhat ahead of your shoulders.
3. Stand up straight
4. Stare straight ahead
5. Compare:

Actually, the timesplitters series is by far one of the best made fps series in existance, by a company which has a record of releasing high quality products. Thanks for playing.

I doubt you've even played an FPS game at all; let alone the TS.

Timeplitters? That shitty game? terrble game, terrble control, terrible design. Terrible.
A good FPS? Quake 4.

Timeslitters = 0 skill anyone that plays can kill you. Now halo for example takes skill you cant kill me even if you had rockets and I had a pistol. GG

Sure in your ideology it’s more realistic. But realism sucks ass. Best video games in the world? No where near realistic. Realism blows. The more you try to make things realistic, the shittier the game becomes.

Except there are more popular FPS games then TPS, by far.

I think FPS is clearly better than TPS.

Realism:
More accurate FOV (Field of view, no seeing around corners)
Better control (Counter-Strike movies)
More emphasis on aim and movement (Look at some Quake III movies)

Overall FPS is more accurate, and less random. In TPS games you generally, from the ones I've played, can check around every corner without having to actually peak out, and the actual shooting is more of a long the lines of running and spraying.

Also in my honest opinion Quake IV is a terrible game compared to Quake III, but that's just me, and is pretty off topic.
