Deadman - actually, studies have proven 1st person shooters improve IQ test results. I am not kidding.
Believe me.....the only thing that prepares you, and teaches you how, to shoot is shooting.

Welcome to THR, Zan. What else do you do around Cincy?
Fumegator, where exactly are you stuck? I've run through Halo on Legendary mode a bunch of times (just a stress reliever now) and most 'scenes' have a tactic or weapons load that makes 'em easier. Some just remain insanely hard (who gave those Golden Elites energy swords I can't use?!?!).
The following story is true:
An Israeli paintball place once ran an event that featured a team of Special Forces veterans vs. a team of Counterstrike players.
The CS people ran over the SF people like a T-80UD runs over a golf cart.
FPS games are insanely unrealistic. I've never played a single game that modeled SA pistols correctly
FPS games can help develop rudementary tactics and team-work, depending on the game. And it can also help with hand-eye co-ordination.
