Correct!

 

Meanwhile, I'm content with anything more than 20 FPS in my games. 30 is pretty much perfect for me. Anything more than 40 is really nitpicky if you ask me.. Sure, the game can be more fluid, but I can guarantee that the fluidity difference isn't as much as people make it out to be. 95% of the difference is psychologically manufactured - thinking that the 60 FPS looks that much better because you "know" that it's supposed to be.


It depends a lot on the type of game.  Racing games especially benefit from a solid, consistent 60 fps, as do twitch FPS games.  Honestly though, even Super Mario Galaxy benefits massively from being locked at 60 fps, IMO.  You might not need the control granularity of 1/60 of a second, but I think it makes the game world feel more natural and alive.
