English term or phrase: first-person shooter (FPS)
Definition from Tom's guide:
A game with a first-person perspective, in which players rarely, if ever, see their own player character. Gameplay revolves primarily around aiming and shooting.

Example sentence(s):
  • First-person shooters are often more immersive gaming experiences, as the game you play unfolds from your perspective. PCMag
  • First-person shooters are violent, but you could have scenarios with exactly the same mechanics that aren’t violent. We have created one game where you are a doctor and you need to cure all these animals of diseases. You shoot them to give them medical help. New York Times Magazine
  • Censorship of violent digital games, especially first-person shooter (FPS) games, is broadly discussed between generations. While older people are concerned about possible negative influences of these games, not only players but also nonplayers of the younger net-generation seem to deny any association with real aggressive behavior. National Center for Biotechnology Info.
