... I definitely live in the early 2000s ... I still have an analogue TV, my PS2, N64 and GameCube are under my bed, my NDS and 3DS are on top of my Foxtel box and my PSP and PSP Vita are on my bed somewhere.

So here's a question, as I've seen a couple of variants in this thread and would like opinion on them as I'm in need of one with the reno going on in my room at the moment.

What's a good seat/chair for gaming in? The last few years I've mainly used an office chair, but eventually they start to creak and crack and they just in general don't last all that long and aren't necessarily all that great in terms of comfort.

What's the recommendation? Sofa/Couch Seat? Expensive office chairs? Specifically designed gaming chairs?

What do you guys use and what do you think is best?

Depends how much space you have to work with. I'm using a leather 2 seater home theatre suite which i find handy with the centre console for storage of random accessories/controllers and more importantly, drink holders . Reclining also a must.

Get a Bed and add a few pillows

To the left there is a couple bookshelves full of games and older consoles and little knickknacks, but I can't be bothered taking any more photos, too lodged.

I'm running out of room, so I'm going to have to get an entertainment center and shelf like that. Looks good!

If you're in Melbourne I recommend Sam's Warehouse. Got the desk, TV stand and little shelf for $120 all up!

I'm short-sighted and HATE wearing glasses to game! lol

I do the same thing, haha. I'd rather sit half a meter from the TV with my glasses off than sit back with them on.

At least you have a choice. With my Astigmatism I'm up s**t creek without a paddle without glasses.

Sat in a DXRacer (?) a while back and holy damn they are good but cost like $300. I know a few people have said the Bathurst race chair from Officeworks is fairly good for it's price. I plan on getting it once I get my new PC setup and setup ready.

I looked at that one but went all in and got the one a couple of ranges up with the reclining back, it's way more comfortable and hopefully will last a few years. I work from home every now and then so I'll claim it back on tax at the end of the FY.

My setup isn't the best and is slowly being improved, and once I have it at its best I will take a photo.

Currently stands as:

50" TV on the far left, connected to Foxtel.
Next to that is my gaming laptop set up.
Next to that is a 32" TV with my PS4.
Next to that is a 32" TV with my PC - connected with Tt eSports Pro Challenger Gaming Keyboard and Tt eSports Theron Gaming Mouse)
Next to that is a 32" TV with my XBOX One.
Next to that I have all my accessories set up (Elgato HD Game Capture, Astro a40's w/ mixamp, printer) under that I have my stack of games.
Currently use an office chair, looking to upgrade to a single recliner couch seat.

Want to add:

Brackets to the wall to make keeping the wiring neater possible.
Wider desks so there is a little more room for my hand-helds.
Upgrade the 32" TV's to 40" (although 40" may be too big for a PC)
An individual shelf to stock my games on.

Im so jealous of everyone in this thread

Just finished dusting the room (one of the many nuisances with all the electronics) and added a PS4 and Wii U to the mix since the last post. I've laid the 360 to rest and the PS3 will soon follow after I'm done with South Park and GTA V. Yes that's a pink 3DS.
