Krimson and I are looking to potentially get a Video Rocker comfortable chair or two for the office (read: where all the computers, games, and HDTV are). Any CAGs have a recommendation on which one to get at a decent price/quality?

So far, some of the cheap $30 Video Rockers I've tried at Target were too narrow for me, as I have wide shoulders and the frame dug into my shoulder blade pretty badly.

Something with head and neck support would be great too, but I've yet to find something taller than 36".

Any thoughts?

A Rocket Scientist shouldn't demean themselves by sitting in a video rocker.

I still try to maintain a good sense of humility. I also still consider $20 to be too much to pay for most 360 games...$10 though, and I'm in.

Nobody should ever use one of those.

Beanbag chairs ftw.

I considered those too, but I prefer something with good back support. I've spent the past few months playing games hunched over in bed because we've had a 4th roommate live in the office while another was moving out.

Not comfortable at all. I'm open to suggestions though, I just want a good chair in the end.

Most of us probably play on our couches or recliners. :D

A been bag is probably the way to go if you need something smaller and more portable.

Already have one. Not that comfy.

Something small and portable is preferred, but I don't think a bean bag would offer the kind of back support I prefer. I like the angle a video rocker would recline me at, but the cheaper ones seem too narrow for my shoulder blades.

I had one of those rockers growing up--just a plane one no speakers or anything--it was ok. But I'm a skinny guy.

It's going to be tricky to find something comfy and portable that has good back support. A rocker may be your best bet if you can find one that's wide enough. I've not looked for those kind of chairs--so I'm not sure what's out there--since I only game at home on my couch.
 
Another option I suppose would be a comfy office chair--those you could roll around pretty easily to get out of the way.

Should be some deals on some in the office stores this week/Friday.
