How do you control your controller? |
|
|
After seeing ALT's avatar it inspired me to ask this unique question:
How do you control your controller? (ie, Left/right thigh, center-chest high, crotch level, right/left knee, between knees)
This could apply to Xbox, Ps2, Sega, Dreamcast (anyone remember this console? lol), GameCube, etcetera.
Personally, I'm an upper right thigh/hip hugger and an occasional hunched over between the knees.
And when I'm exhausted, it's a laying sideways on the couch.  |

When I'm sitting in a chair, I sit back and rest my forearms on my thighs. So I guess it's closest to crotch level from your list of positions.
If I'm not sitting in a chair, it could be pretty much anything, I haven't quite mastered the art of gaming while not sitting back in a chair yet.  _________________

Well this was just a short list to hopefully display more clearly what I meant.
My personal favorite to see is watching someone hunched over with the controller at about eye level (just high enough to see over) and jerking their head around when they move that direction.. |

im usually relaxed and sitting don, my arms are rested on my upper thighs and my controller is slightly elevated. I never look at my controller, my eyes are always focused on the screen. I dont really do any body movements with the game, unless im mad that i lost and throw my controller, lol _________________

I lay on my bed side ways and hold myself up with my left elbow with my hands holding the (game qube) controller on the bed I NEVER EVER EVER move or look at my controller, because if I doo my concentration on the game is compleatly absolutly lost (and then I get realy mad and throw my controller and most of the time it breaks somthing). then my mom yells at me to cool down so I'm now forced to "cool down" or I can't play anymore. My little brother is a whole other story he plays ''007 everything or nothing" and he STANDS UP AND PLAYS! You can ask him to sit down and he'll just ignore you. He moves to the motion of the game too. He's NEVER RELAXED  _________________ Life is a game if you don't play it right you get screwed.

Depends on how I sit.
Sometime I lay down on my bed with my arms dangling off the end of the bed.(TV is at the foot of the bed)
But most of the time, I just let them dangle loose while I'm sitting down, so it's very close to the crotch section. _________________ Quote of the Week:
