You've been catching up on some Wii Fit, but you haven't logged onto Xbox Live in about 90 days? That's it, Rocketpig. Hand in your balls. You're no longer a gamer.

Im not sue what you played, but do some of those yoga and strength training combo workouts and you get a nice workout. The balance games are fun, did you unlock them all? You get some really fun ones towards the end of the unlocking - like snowboard slalom!

OH the doublestandards. You ban me for using vagina in a sentence after someone directly attacks me, but you get to tell someone to "hand in their balls" because they're not logging into xb live and *gasp* actually expanding their knowledge of games.

If you want to see something equally pointless, tilt your head up a few degrees and look at the Wii...

I shouldn't say that, I am sure a lot of people get a lot of use out of there Wii... Mine has not been turned on in 4 months :(

Can you say "bitter, party of one".

So because someone attacked you, that makes it okay? The difference between our two comments is that I know Rocketpig well, and he knows I'm joking, whereas your comment was obviously aggressive (just like the one you made here). And his thread title pretty much means that he's played it before and is cracking it open again, which throws your "expansion" argument out the window. But thanks for bringing up something completely unrelated, it gives me a reason to boost my post count.

Try doing like this guy:

Ah yes, the device should come with a ceiling remover or something like that. Clearly bad engineering.

I would say try the rhythm boxing stuff, some of the advanced steppers and the advanced strength training (that one for me is sufficient, but then i am out of shape). If you really aim to hit hard and fast in the boxing, it could make you sweat, if you just "waggle" a bit it wont.

To be honest I semi enjoyed it for about a week (then stopped using it and eventually sold it) but it is heavily designed for a Eastern audience. The Tech is sound, but the presentation and games (especially the balance games) were all very lacking.

I hear EA and others are making new versions of the Wii Fit Game, hopefully at least one of them will make the device more useful. The only good part of it was the balance board and the weighing yourself critiques. He would flat out say you gained too much weight yesturday, ask you what you did wrong (IE Night snacking) and tell you not to do it again. He was the most hard edged personal trainer I've ever seen in a game.

Well I use it for Yoga and not feel so gay by going to a Yoga class and I'd rather not buy a Yoga pose book and read while trying to do the poses, but it's a decent exercise if you use it right, it's somewhat fun to me cause I am a bit of an exercise nut, and with Martial Arts it's good because it does help with balance while yoga keeps me flexible.

I have to admit, that i usually go for the balance games, so not that much of an excercise, but the excercise parts really give you a sweat. Atleast if you do as you're told.
The problem with the strength training is, that you're supposed to use your own weight, which usually isn't enough for an average male in short bursts, but the number of repetitions do give a pretty good stress, after all, the game is more about keeping in shape, and it's a really good routine to add, if you go to gym and lift weights, since it concentrates more on a different type of workout (and the hula hoops is the best thing that have ever happened to my back).

Anyway, maybe your expectations were something different.
