For FPS it's first-person view all the way because I'm the guy doing the dirty work. That's me with my rifle and I'm the one putting rounds on target. When that guy goes down, I did it. Me the guy at home. The personal me.
For RPGs and MMOs, that's not me. That's the person I'm in charge of. When my Shadowknight kills a lizard, I think good boy! He did it. I told him sure, but he was the one. I'm just pulling the strings. And when I'm pulling the strings I like to see the puppet, so it's third-person full time.
