Okay, I did not read the article fully, just skimmed through it quickly. I remember many, many years ago when I played DOOM 2, I would get dizzy after a while. Heck, even my older brother, who did not play the game himself, but just merely watched me playing, would also get headache after just about 30 minutes or so.
Same thing happens when I play Clive Barker's Undying (demo only, I don't have the full game, though I quite like it but I will always get headache after playing) and Arx Fatalis (again only the demo, I can still buy the full game in local gamestores, but feel rather reluctant because of this headache). Star Trek: Elite Force is slightly bearable for me, I managed to finish the game (had to cheat against the final boss, because it was too tough for me
). Star Wars: Jedi Outcast and Star Wars: Jedi Academy, well, they are 3rd person by default, with 1st person look as an option, so no problem at all with them.
For oldies/abandonware, I got dizzy trying to play Menzoberranzan and Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss. Hence, I much prefer tile-based (step-by-step or frame-by-frame movement) counterparts such as Anvil of Dawn and Lands of Lore 1.
Someone in a certain forum suggested to take a lot of caffeine to prevent the condition. I feel reluctant to take this advice, though, since I don't think taking a lot of caffeine is healthy.
The suggestion in the article on the link above is to switch to software acceleration, but most games don't have that option in their option menu as far as I recall, unless what he actually means is to turn off hardware acceleration in the Display Properties.
Anyway, does this simulator sickness thing happen to you as well?
