Body positions

In what body position do you play your Castlevania games?

For Dawn of Sorrow, I mainly play it lying on my stomach on my bed. I have the tank DS - the backlight for this system isn't very good imo, so I like playing in my room like that.

For console games I sit in normal position on the couch to play. I have the couch pretty close to the screen. My TV has a fairly small screen by today's standards I guess.

I don't think I've ever payed attention to what position I play any games in.... Does it make you better if you sit a certain way. Is there a Kama Sutra for gaming?
What a horrible night to have a curse!

I usually like to play the games laying down on my side on my bed, but I've noticed that I play AoS a lot sitting down while slouching.

I change position many times, especially when playing a handheld. Sitting with the DS/PSP in my lap makes my neck hurt after a while, and so I'll try and lay down on my stomach and elbows, but that usually kills my elbows and arms. And it's impossible to lay on the back and play with the handheld in the air, cause you get no support for the arms. Sitting on a chair with the handheld on a table is alright, but I prefer playing on a bed or sofa.. I usually sit on my bed with my back against the wall and some kind of pillow or something in my lap, to support the arms. Comfortable gaming is teh impossible!

For console games, I usually lay on my bed on my stomach with my legs curled up a bit, but after a while it hurts my neck so I switch to the other side (If my body is facing left, I move so it's facing right).

For handheld games I usually play sitting down in front of the computer.

Well...  Marriage is hard work, but mine  would need to get get ALOT worse to put for me to put my 4 kids through a divorce drama.  Gaming and marriage can be a very tricky mix especially when kids get involved.  Hardcore Gamers BEWARE!

Don't give G4 ideas. They'd never shut up about it.

console gaming = standing. portable = laying down. arcade/computer = sitting.
