Example sentence(s):
  • First-person shooters are often more immersive gaming experiences, as the game you play unfolds from your perspective. PCMag
  • First-person shooters are violent, but you could have scenarios with exactly the same mechanics that aren’t violent. We have created one game where you are a doctor and you need to cure all these animals of diseases. You shoot them to give them medical help. New York Times Magazine
  • Censorship of violent digital games, especially first-person shooter (FPS) games, is broadly discussed between generations. While older people are concerned about possible negative influences of these games, not only players but also nonplayers of the younger net-generation seem to deny any association with real aggressive behavior.

Italian translation:sparatutto in prima persona
Definition:
Lo sparatutto in prima persona o sparatutto in soggettiva[2] (abbreviato spesso con la sigla FPS, dall'inglese First-person shooter)[3] è un sottogenere dei videogiochi di tipo sparatutto, che in questo caso adottano una visuale in prima persona, ossia il giocatore vede sullo schermo la simulazione di ciò che vedrebbe se si trovasse veramente nei panni del proprio personaggio, con prospettiva tridimensionale.
Normalmente, in un videogioco di questo genere, nella parte bassa del campo visivo è possibile vedere la propria arma.
