You know you're in danger in a FPS game when ....

When playing a First Person Shooter you know you're gonna be in big danger when ..


... when the ominous music completely stops and it becomes silent

... you find all kinds of unguarded ammo, health and armor just lying around along the way ("fattening" you up for the "kill")

... when you are about to enter a new area and your framerate suddenly drops

... when the words "saving checkpoint" pop up without warning

... when you find a dead, mutilated guy next to a door

... when you DON'T find any ammo, health or armor for the longest time

... when you realize that the boss you're fighting is depicted on the box cover

... when the boss you're fighting has dialogue

... when there's fighting underwater or in outer space without oxygen

... when you know you have to jump, shoot, push buttons and dodge projectiles within a limited time to finish the level (I hated those - makes me want to dump the game and play something else)

did I miss any?
