I sort of expected to have a GTA1/2-esque camera, which was stationary top-down.
Unlikely you'll find that particular type of camera positioning in games now. Everything has pretty much gone 3D and you'll have the from above but back a bit angle.
Not unless some indie game company comes out with something anyway.
Damn, this is really impacting my ability to enjoy gaming...
Bejeweled? :P
I get motion sickness if I'm not careful when playing FPS games but generally it takes a while to kick in so just having breaks is enough for me. Not sure what else to suggest for you really...
