I get horrible motion sickness in age of empires 2 sometimes. Especially in battle mode when everything's galloping offscreen all the time.

And then the back of my neck starts hurting and i get nauseous...

I get sick more often than not when I play Doom or Wolf3D. It's sad cus they're both great games and I like playing them.

Also, Sonic CD is a game that I can't play without getting sick and/or dizzy.

My girlfriend used to get headaches after 5 minutes of watching anyone play Call of Duty Modern Warfare or Doom 3. She said it was because everything moved so fast she got dizzy.

I've never experienced anything like that so far.

me niether, i have played lots of FPSes and other games but i never head headache or something

Same Here. Plaing the FPS "Prey" 10 Hours, no Problems. But i get Tiered after 5 Hours, and my eyes are tired, but no "Simulator Sickness". The only side effects are:

1. I cannot feel my A$$, because it is too tiered from the long sitting.
2. Look benath.
3. I Walk a bit funny, my legs are a bit Stiffy. Again, this has something to do with the long time not moving. Her Majestys Guards (Those never moving dudes from England) Expierience the same after Standing Guard for 6 Hours. Again, i do not expierience "Simulator Sickness".

Sometimes when ive just got up from spending a while in front of the screen, the world seems a little yellower or darker for some reason, which i rather like coz i can look in a mirror in winter and imagine ive got a tan . But its never really made me feel sick, im kinda with danny, i only usually play for that long a time when im sick already.
[/b]
That is simply cos you look at the bright screen. Had the same after a 7 Hour TV marathon. Your eyes get tired, and colors change. No "Simulator Sickness".

You're supposed to take regular breaks from you pc, as well. I think it is 15-20 mins break for every hour.

I never do that. Not once in 10 Hours.

BTW, i just played so long to Prove my new Claim:

"Simulator Sickness" is a Hoax to Scare off gamers from thier favorite Hobby.
This is sure a New Trick of some Conservative Parents wanting to get thier Childs away from the monitor.
