i never had that problem, but to make the situation more interesting my eyes read 3D with eas and i dont get head aches from it so it might be just me. (others probably get that effect your talking about)

My case I felt is like lots of actions and movement involve in the eyes when you look at the screen, especially it's trying to process lots of information inside your brain. Well, that's what I'm thinking, when it was overloaded or either the information are very alienated, that happens. It could have been worse if I play really horror games.
Real horror games like busting or exorcising a ghost while in 1st person mode, not only it makes me nauseating, it'll also make my heart racing and give me nightmares. Now that is a lot worse.

First person or 3rd person games usually can cause this problem, so he should stay away from that genre, even today's fighting games which involves camera turnings has 3rd person elements, so he should stay away from that too.
But I don't blame him, it's his choice though.

its a sad one too, he really wants to play video games, he just cant handle any of them that render in a 3D engine. (not the stereoscopic, i hate this confusion point, good old 2D-3D)

2D-3D works well enough such as Red Alert 2 or even Generals (As long as you don't turn the camera a lot) works enough for him too. I got the feeling even a simple Counter Strike (1.6 or Source) is still alright too, it doesn't bring a lot of nausea like when I played them for the first time.
I think the nausea comes from is I'm sure it's the environment and numerous background effects which what makes the brain overload. Or maybe it could be very intense battles that cause it.

eh got me, i think it might be related to the way that virtualized 3D space moves in Video Games. (doesn't matter how fancy or unfancy the game is he gets the same problem)

Looks like his case is unique, that's why I see 3D games are not for him. Well, there are still some other modern games that doesn't involve lots of camera movement, well, like there's Bejeweled, Tetris, etc.. of old fashion games that got a modern makeover.

Here comes some more awesome stuff. This time, an epic tank battle!
I got high hopes on this one, MW3? Well, I doubt about flying planes and driving tanks, MW2 did get to play on the humvee, but it's more fun to drive tanks and shoot the shells and machine guns! ;D

saw that one live, man is that aw-inspiring. i feel like this game may turn in to one of my virtual photo games like Crysis and Mirror's Edge have become.

DICE really did a good job as I saw. As far as I saw Modern Warfare 3 goes, that game will be toast as you can't compare for piloting aircraft and tanks. MW3 do have all these other than just holding the miniguns in helicopters and humvees, but Battlefield already got vehicle driving since the beginning.
Most of all, the EA CEO did say in his interview that BF3 is meant to compete against MW3 this time. If I'm not mistaken, I hope BF3 will be our new Game of the Year 2011, both PC and overall.

the best part of all of this, is supposedly DICE's next project is Mirrors Edge 2. my hope though whit BF3 is that it doesn't go to EA's head like COD did to activision (and MOH/Crysis did to EA). DICE is known to do its own thing but if you through enough money at any one they eventually break.

Of course, it's all about quality. BF3, though I'm not sure how long was its development time, but from what I read when it comes to Frostbite 2, it built from scratch and I bet it's more than a year in development time. So I'm sure they'll rock & kickass.
Activision wise, even if they did bring out MW3 again, they only care for money instead of listening to fans to focus on quality. And again, by the time the game is out, skepticism is high. Sales are high at the very first purchase, but weeks later, sales will go down instantly. The only exact opposite is Windows 7, sales are high at first, weeks later, it's even higher instead. But then again, expecting some bugs and multiplayer problems just like in Black Ops.

considering that the engines been in stages of development for the past 5 years i believe that theirs nothign to be worried about. not to mention DICE hasn't done anything else seance Battlefield Bad Company 2. (minus the MP part they did for MOH that must of taken all of two days to code). they even placed all other projects on hold for as much man power as they possibly could for working on this game. it will be a finely polished work of art. if it only lives up to half of what the trailers have shown.
yep, Activisions only out for money right now. why else would it have two developers at all times working on a COD game. they have figured out the best system for milking the greater audience of gaming. the stupid ones. however theirs only so long that a ruse can be pulled so lets hope this ones ending son.
seeking of windows 7, i'm suspecting like XP, 7 will cling on for a long time to come. almost every single company i know of (including university's) are upgrading to windows 7. so push com to shove unless windows 8 is the equivalence of windows 95 was to windows 3.5 i don't see windows 8 being wildly adopted. (like how Vista was at its best only 30% of the entire computing market and even that numbers up for debate)

Ahh, the stupid ones will surely fall for this scheme and they'll continue to purchase the game to skyrocket the sales instead of waiting for reviews first before purchasing. So far, I wish nearly all CoD fans should focus on buying BF3 instead, that's the new thing in town!
As for Windows 8, I got the feeling I no need to upgrade to it. Even though my prediction is they'll never make another Vista, but what we know is that as long as our computers are already high end and up to today's fashions, upgrading to Win8 won't be a compulsory necessity. Like my old laptop, I finally sold it and bought the current Studio 15 because all of the hardware are obsolete and can't play modern games, not to mention I want to try out Win7.
