Drop video game enthusiasts deeper into the action with the Renegade Gaming Chair, an uber-geek seat loaded with 12 game-synched vibration motors that take first-person shooter titles like BioShock to a new level. Equipped with headrest-mounted 3D stereo speakers and game-triggered lighting effects, the high-tech armchair brings the action closer as game characters whisper panicked radio transmissions directly in players' ears, and the chair rocks and rumbles when battling hulking armored monsters.
The Renegade chair even helps avid gamers recover from a tough round. After hours of fighting through the mythical underwater city of Rapture, you can recline the seat and flip a switch to transform it into a massage chair to sooth back and shoulder aches. So, while there's no danger of this chair being incompatible with a gaming system -- it supports the Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, PlayStation 3, the PC and the iPod -- there is the risk of gamers simply refusing to get out of it. If you're shopping for a significant other consider yourself warned.
