Does anyone have any experience with "Gaming Chairs"? I'm looking at something like:

or I've seen them where they have speakers, etc attached...

I'm looking for something preferrably under $100, or not too much over... If it is half that much it would be great because I could get two.

The whole speakers, etc, etc. is kind of cool but not a priority. Two important things for me are comfort and ease of storage, and a third somewhat important thing is aestethics.

I have sat in several of these and I do not like the ones where it feels like you have to "work" to keep in the position that is comfortable. I like a relatively natural resting position where you're not staring at the ceiling but not using your legs to struggle in place. I have seen some that fold in half which would be very good for storage.

Anyone have any recommendations?

I'll second TK's recommendation of a bean bag chair for gaming -- my lil' bro and I had two when we were growing up, and they were amazing. Really helped eliminate the 'Nintendo Neck' that we'd get from lying on the floor.

Meh, not a fan of the beanbag chair for multiple reasons, but the main being that my dogs would tear them apart.
