Where do you play N-Gage games the most?

As one poll closes, another begins: you play N-Gage games, but where do you play them the most? Take part in our poll and let us know. Do you use them on the move, or at work, or at home, or perhaps somewhere else?

Read on in the full article.

Usually in public transport, which is often the metro train. (similar to subways, just above ground)
I'd play in the bus IF the immigrents they hired knew how to drive a bus steadily. Its like a very bad carnival ride when you get on a bus in Finland. Yeah, try playing game when coming seasick on a bus.
But I mostly play in college, when summer vacations over that is. Usually on brakes or when I CBA to do any studying. The teach rarely notices my N81 under my desk.
I'm one of those weird people who don't have digestive problems and spend 10 minutes on the can, playing block breaker.

Good poll, will link it up no my blog! 😊

Wow, the toilet option is more popular than I thought.
I'm surprised so many people play in their bedrooms. Is that because most of them are teenagers who don't have a home console in their room, or they want to play at night without waking up their aprents?
I also tried playing when walking, but I ALMOST hit a street lamp doing that!

I've got an idea for a next poll:
How often you play N-Gage a day? (1 hour, 1 to 2 hours, etc).
What time of the day you usually play N-Gage? (Morning, noon, afternoon, daytime, evening, nigt, midnight...)

I might try making that timeof day poll. See how many votes I get. (Cos there seems to be no other way to see if people read the blog. Many people are the reading but no comment type.)

I think the bedroom thing may be because people who follow the N-Gage scene and visit AAN are those who take their games pretty seriously. More casual users probably wouldn't visit AAN, so they wouldn't take part in this poll.

And it is quite fun being able to play games on the sofa without having to buy a separate console or insert any cartridges or anything like that. One big advantage of phone games over portable games is you can store them all on a single device.

The "how often do you play" idea is a really good one, is it okay if I do that for the next AAN poll? I'll let the current poll run a bit longer though.
