Third person shooters are a lot more dynamic in the chatacter's actions and all that, but first person shooters require a lot more accuracy... I think I'ma have to go with 3rd person shooters

I wouldn't like it if Splinter Cell was in third person

That's supposed to say "first".

First person is better for action games (shooters), but for some rpgs I think that third person is better.

for me, it depends on what game i am playing, if im playing something like COD, i would play 1st person because i find easier, If im playing something like Gears of War or LOTR Conquest, id play 3rd person because things come from behind u a lot in that game, and the vision of your rear u get in 3rd person helps a lot because of the up close combat in those games.

If I had to say one or the other I would pick 1st person because I like the feel of it more but I wouldn't care if a game was 3rd person either because I like them both. For an example, Call of Duty is great in 1st person but wouldn't be bad in 3rd.

I prefer 1st person for more realistic health games like COD but for games where you armor and stuff i prefer 3rd person like in Gears of War

I really like both types, mostly the third person games do play differently compared to the first person ones, but both are great imo.

I like 3rd person better only cuz in Gears you can hide behind the wall and see if the person is coming

It depends on the game. In Star Wars Battlefront I use 3rd person but in James Bond: Agent Under Fire I use 1st.
