Just as the title says, do you play games while standing or sitting.

Me personaly i feel like i must stand, i seem to just do bad while sitting, and if im sitting i'll involuntaraly stand and not notice. This is bad durring marraothon gaming sessions for my feet really start to hurt after a few hours.

So my fellow Escapists, vote away.

Sit, there is no way I could stand up for such a long period of time. Except for Guitar Hero, I feel uncomfortable sitting down while playing that.

I sit, sometimes I lie down, but I'm normally pulled back to sitting it's just easier.

Only time I've ever stood whilst gaming is the first time I played the wii.

Surely standing would get very uncomfortable very quickly.

One time i tried playing whilst sitting half way up the door frame, but then i fell out and it hurt.
If i'm in the middle of a game and i need a crap though, i'll play standing up until i reach the toilet (i have a toilet facing my tv :D)

I sit. I lie down if possible. Basically just whatever it takes to be as sloth-like as possible.

Depends on the game, the console, and just how into playing I am. Standing is the variant, not the standard, so I stand with...

Certain games. Guitar Hero comes to mind; hard to rawk out to <url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6DmoAp1q6w>You Give Love a Bad Name when you're sitting.

If get seriously into a game, I'll sometimes stand for effect. This tends to be exclusively for Wii games. I always stand for Wii Sports Resort, occasionally for Smash Brothers, and during the final battle of Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. Yes, that included miming the <url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6TBySMxhhI>Devil's Hellfire mystic arte.

Unless we're talking about the Wii here, I'm somewhat confused.

Why would anyone stand whilst playing on a console or pc?

I sit down, even when playing the Wii. The last time I stood up playing Wii I hurt myself somewhere and.. well, it wasn't pretty. Bad memories.
