FPS

[woosaah]

I found this here and was wondering what FPS means to you people

does it mean First Person Shooter, or Frames Per Second. or is Frames Per Second done f/s or similar.

good argument for both sides dont ya just love GameFAQS

Petty. Either way is correct. I personally use FPS for both First Person Shooter AND Frames per second.

The context in which it is said should show which one you mean.

 

[woosaah]

yeah FPS for me means both depending on what i am talking about

 

[top gun]

it can also mean "fat person shagger"

 

[woosaah]

been there done that, bad memories

 

[esoj]

its used for both. depends on context which one is used. the dude is clealry maning frams per second in this case

 

[gjohn85]

Why don't they change Frames Per Second meaning 'FPS' to 'Fp2nd'

 

[woosaah]

cause thats to many key strokes

 

[Saint N Sinner]

How about "Fragging Poor Suckers"?

Yeah, it's context sensitive. [/braininess]

 

[woosaah]

~ thats the tilde key

you obviously have a different keyboard layout

 

[kaftka]

Yeah, I pretty sure you use alt codes to get that.


How about FPS=First Person Shooter

And fps =frames per second.

 

[woosaah]

yeah maybe but who really cares, its all in the context
