Frames Per Second. The general benchmark for computer performance in a video game. Refers to the number of times the image on a computer monitor gets refreshed per second. 60 fps is generally the benchmark for acceptable performance; that provides a buffer for when the action in a game gets heavier.
My old crapper of a computer only gets 20 fps in Quake 3.

1) The short way of saying First Person Shooter, a type of game where you see everything through the character's eyes.

2) The short way of saying Frames Per Second, a way in measuring how fast animation frames go. The higher the FPS, the more smoothly a game will run. Lag decreases FPS.
1) Man I love playing FPS games!
2) Damn, this lag really kills my FPS!

A gamer's way of announcing disappointment in their own or another's idiocy, as face-palming (smacking your face into your palm or vice versa). Sometimes used instead of smh.
