First-Person Shooter.
An FPS is a computer game genre that puts the player in a first-person perspective and usually involves shooting down opponents.
The first historical FPSes were Wolfenstein 3D, released some time around 1995, shortly followed by Doom that had multiplayer capabilities. Both by id software.

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.

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.

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.
