The game was made by the Onion.

That should clear things up.

You know what's always bugged me about FPSes?  That you can look down and see only ground ever, and you can only see like half your forearm, if that.

It makes me feel like I'm playing as a floating camera with arms attached, and it never stops bothering me.

What he said.  Two recent ones I can think of are Crysis and the Left 4 Dead series.

Could be worse.  You could be forced to look at a tattoo on your chest to see your health.

How are L4D and Crysis different?  Haven't played L4D or L4D2 in a while, but I'm pretty sure it was all floating-camera style.  A quick youtube of Crysis shows me the same thing.

I don't play FPSes very much, but the only one I can think of that actually shows your legs when you look down is Halo, and that still has the no-arms thing.

Crysis shows you your whole body, I don't know what you saw in the videos but if you look down you see for legs, and you have a complete shadow. I don't remember L4D2

L4D1 had a body, Crysis has a full body, L4D2 doesn't have the body anymore.
