Thread: Where do you sit when you game?

  1. 08-20-2012 10:06 PM #1
    I'm looking to buy a gaming chair cause the couch I have in my man cave isn't cutting it. I was thinking a bean bag or such. Like so. But I think they might be too big for my small man cave. Post up something.

    I usually sit on a wood stool so I can be super close to the TV. I substituted an NA miata seat and a Recaro SPG a few times...both were insanely more comfortable than the couch.

    my computer monitor doubles as my ps3 monitor. So my desk chair. It's comfy. You should look into a love (luv?) sack beanbag. They are super comfortable.
    Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

    An IKEA desk chair that I really need to replace.

    If I'm on a console it's the couch.

    Well, the cheapest lovesac is $500. A little too much for my tastes.

    On my ass.

    Sometimes the couch, sometimes the floor.
    Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?

    Usually cross-legged on the floor on a blanket with my back leaning against the front of my couch. The couch I have is entirely too soft for sitting on, but it's great for napping.

    I sit on a desk chair at a desk because I'm not some lameass casual.

    Yup, me too. Sometimes, if I'm into the game, my legs fall asleep then it's awesome to try and walk

    I have a really old office desk chair that I roll in front of my TV when I'm paying Xbox. If I'm playing mine craft I'm usually just chilling on the couch or in my bed.

    Futon. Once I get my own place, it's gonna change to a custom made chair that's a bucket seat with cupholder and remote caddy.

    I would like to have a futon but I don't have room for something like that in my bedroom.

    Yeah, I wish my Xbox was in my room. Probably gonna move it in October. Right now the Wii's in my room, I just have an egg chair, but I can't sit in it for more than an hour or two without feeling cramped.

    I just recently moved my xbox into my room and its pretty sweet to not have to wait till people aren't watching TV to play.
