For me it's not as easy as sitting down on a couch and playing a game on a console. It just seems to take more effort to actually sit up in a chair. Not that I've used either of my consoles in months. It can be less engrossing at time though, with smaller screens and soundsystems. Even though I have a 24 inch main monitor and some great headphones, sitting on a couch in front of a 42 inch TV with albeit sucky surround sound is just a lot more fun.
