I havent got it with PS3 yet, but I've found that the newwer FPS on PC such as Doom 3, HL2, etc. give me the same effect, while UT and CS are fine. I read an article on this a while ago and if I remember correctly it has something to do with the [dull] graphics and refresh rate that our brains respond to in a certain manner.

lol well this thread was about motion sickness but somone turned it into a pissing comp.

The thread is about motion sickness when gaming... as i personally get it when playin Tonyhawk8 but only in Split screen mode (2player)

Incidently i also used to get it on my 19" LCD playing Half Life 2.

Do you get it at all on ur screen pirarefunk?
