I've noted a few threads here about armchairs, however they all relate to the more AV side of things, namely watching movies. I'm interested in a chair for gaming in, the main differences as far as i can guess is large arms can get in the way, and reclining can be useful but less essential.

What i do want is good lumbar/back support as *cough* i've been known to have the odd session which lasts longer than say LoTR: The Return of the King, with all the extras. Something with a slightly smaller formfactor would be good, as my gaming room couldnt take a big Lazyboy-type chair.

I spotted this in John Lewis: Techno Leather Chair and have tried it out, seems ok, reclines and has small arms and you can sort of slouch in it yet not feel like your posture is ruining your back. £500 would be the top end i'd want to pay, so if anyone can suggest similar but cheaper, with priority on back support, it would be much appreciated.

Buy yourself a pair of leather porsche car seats (or any other nice sport seat) and make up a base from steel, wood etc..

will be a lot cheaper, cooler and comfortable.
