The Poll Question is one year old today! Your birthday is a normal time to ask questions about life, the universe and everything. SO today’s questions tries to do that!
This week’s poll question is:
What’s the meaning of life for SP FPS gamers?
Regular (used to be weekly) polls to stimulate interesting and intelligent discussion.

We buy games and play them. There is a one-off cost and we play it as many times as we want or as little as we want. There are other financial models within video games, but none for Single Player.
This week’s poll question is:
Would you consider paying a monthly fee to play single player games?

It’s hard for designers not to repeats certain gameplay scenes in single player games. In fact it’s desirable to repeat some types of scenes. Imagine action movies without a car chase (More on that another time)! However, there is a big difference in repeating scenes because they are needed and repeating scenes because designers can’t think of anything else to add.
What gameplay scene has been over used the most in SP maps and mods?

Unreal Tournament featured a great gametype called Instagib. Put simply it was one shot, one kill! Assuming you hit the enemy that is! I loved playing that, partly because I always played on the easier difficulty settings. I was thinking how it could be adapted for SP games.
Would you like to see a one shot, one kill gametype in SP games?

With so many games and mods available to play choosing can be difficult. If, unlike me, you play multiplayer games and mods then the choice can be even harder. So this week’s question focuses on how you make that choice.
What is the deciding factor when choosing which mod or map to play?

Please don’t vote until you have read the whole of this post. The reason is that the question itself needs some clarification.
Would you prefer a new game or a new mod for you favorite game to be released every month?

I generally play on Easy when I play games. I am probably good enough to play on Medium but I have got into the habit of not wanting to be too stressed. However, when I think about it, the best levels for me are the ones that are quite hard to finish.
This week’s poll question is:
Would you buy and play a game that only had one difficulty setting?

I remember reading a preview about the soon-to-be released Bioshock. It seems that the player has some moral and ethical choices to make regarding his escape from Rapture and inhabitants of the underwater city. This inspired this week’s poll question.
Have any FPS games managed to create moral dilemmas from which you learnt something?
Personally I don’t recall any FPS games that made me seriously consider morals but I have quite a bad memory.
What about you?

I have a feeling that this week’s poll will divide PP readers. Without wanting to predjudice the comments and votes I have a feeling that the younger readers will say No and the older readers will say yes.
This week’s poll question is:
Are Single Player FPS games too violent?
