22. I played the trial for 20 minutes, with default sensitivity on for 10 min, and down one notch for the other 10 min (perfect setting).

Didn't get sick at all.

Although I'm sure many people are getting sick because it really is making them feel that way, I think some might be getting it just psychologically.

Will buy the game, never played the originals, but I love the old school feel of this one.

23. Wow... I ate a ton of bacon last night and thought it was that. I couldn't concentrate. Tried moving away from my TV. Slapped myself a few times...

I couldn't even get my Halo on. What is up with that game. I even paid the 800 points just knowing I would love it.

I remember turning around and looking at my wife going I think I am gonna barf!!!

This is just terrible!!!

24. I played the trial and after about 5 minutes of it I was feeling the firts effects of nausea setting in, i think its because of the strange 3D effects. Although I did get really sick watching a friend play oblivion for hours on end but never when i played it..

25. It's really funny. I had just finally gotten around to playing the demo this morning, and right away I noticed that it made me quite queasy - and I don't get queasy very easily; and never from playing a videogame. So Marathon 2 has the distinction of being the only game that I have ever played that made me feel ill.

Something that I did notice while playing the demo, as that the game does not move with the controls. There is also a very serious depth of field issue with the game; objects really are closer than they appear.

Something I did to help alleviate the problem, was go into the options and turn down the sensitivity of the analog sticks. Once I did that, it allowed for the control and the animation to actually catch up to each other, which seemed to fix the problem for the most part.

I have not tried the camera bob trick yet, I may go back and give it a whirl along with lowering the analog sensitivity and see if that eliminates the problem altogether.

26. it started to make my eyes and head hurt. So i took off the sensitivity. I felt a little better. Didnt try the bob though.

27. This is pretty funny to read because about an hour ago I was playing the demo and for myself I have never had any motion sickness problems but with this game after about two minutes, I had a major headache and I felt a little dizzy. I promptly decided to delete the demo.

28. You guys are all a bunch of noobs. Getting sick from playing a game? Weak-stomached weaklings!

It doesn't bother me in the slightest.

29. I'm not joking - I have experienced bad headaches since i started playing this. I haven't been playing anything else.

30. I can't believe people are getting sick from this game. I've been playing non-stop and it PWNS.

31. Lame, getting sick from a video game? I'M actually sick, and this didn't affect me at all

32. FPS is my bread and butter I heard about this and had a good laugh... Now I take it back... I have never been sick from a game before... Its weird man... I was really looking forward to it too...

33. This game didn't bother me at all. Only time I've ever gotten motion sickness is that one time at the carnival when I rode the spinny spaceship ride for like 6 hours straight. Not a good idea.

In any case this is all to common. Not so much today because games are getting deminsions and depth right along with the color pallete being a little softer on the mind. Unreal Tournament 2004 gave a great deal of my friends a case of motion sickness though, that's about the last time I heard of people getting motion sickness from fps or 3d games in general. My mom n friends use to get sick from Mario Kart.

I did however vomit the day of the release for the Wii when I bought Red Steel, then I cried myself to sleep, what a dissapointment. Every other game is great though on that console.

34. I had played the demo before I read about the sicknesses that people have been getting and I didn't feel any the first time. But then I read this stuff and then I tried it out again and I felt fine while playing it but after I finished the trial, I got a headache! Call it a coinsidense(or however you spell that) or whatever but it was strange.

35. Wow, i though it was just me. I have been a gamer for over 20 years now, and not one game has made me sick. I played Marathon for about 20-30 minutes and had to turn my 360 off and lay down. I have never experienced this with any other game. I thought it may have just been coincidence, tried to play again later that night and had the same issue after another 30 minutes of play.

All in all, i am glad it's not just me.

36. I am glad to read that it is not just me who is feels this way. Never been sick from a game before and I played all of the original Marathon games vomit free. I hope they fix this as I was really excited about it until I played it and felt bad.

37. I actually felt this way the first time I played Quake. The next time I played it, it wasn't an issue.

38. yeah man i got sick about 2 minutes in. I didn't feel like puking but my stomach hurt and i felt dizzy. This has only ever happened to me with one other game. But i don't remember which game it was.

39. The game just wasnt ment for hd, I have gamed forever and only this game hurts my optics and I often loose track of where I am and where I have been due to it. I dont see things I should Its odd. It wasnt so much of an issue the second time I played it either but still odd. I am some1 that will be straff jumping along in quake, here U comming behind me and in mid jump look 180 degrees behind me, switch to my rail gun and turn U into a pile of meat then face forwards again and switch back to my last weapon all before I land on the ground for another jump.

There is definatly something wierd about Marathon.
