Re: How do you game?

I switch from Recliner to the comfy red chair from The Matrix. I start out on the recliner but it's so comfy i nearly fall asleep so i switch to The Matrix chair.

Re: How do you game?

I've been playing in an AK Rocker for the last 6 or 7 years. It's getting really old and I need to change it up. When I had couches in here, they were too far away to be effective (I think it's about 19 feet from screen to wall).

Mostly on the floor. There are times when I am in bed or sitting in a chair but I eventuallly end up in the floor.

Couch.

Back when I was a kid, I would sit on the floor up against my bed, but I was playing on a 19" tube TV. My TV's a bit bigger now.

Always on the floor. For some reason I just cant play sitting on the couch, especially games like COD.

Re: How do you game?

Floor for me too, right in front of the couch. Not sure why, it's just more comfortable for me.

I have a 50" tv which is about 10 ft from the couch ... I tried to play Uncharted 2 MP the other day from the couch and it is just way to difficult to follow from that distance

Re: How do you game?

Am I the only one surprised that a lot of guys play on the floor?

It seems so uncomfortable for me.

It just depends. Gaming at my house, my carpet is fairly comfortable and its home so *shrug*. But my parents are wood panel in most places, so I would always just sit in a chair. And then there are floors where I would be scared to sit on the floor, carpet or not.

Re: How do you game?

When playing on my desktop computer, it's at a desk. When I use my laptop in the livingroom, it's on the floor with my back against the couch.
