hey everyone i'm just wondering if anyone uses a game for fitness? other than the ones that require the balance board as i don't have the money to go buy that. I was looking at the "just dance 1,2, and 3" but i'm not sure if it would be good or not? looking for suggestions please and thanks

The dance games can really give you a work out, especially the more difficult songs where you're really moving around! Just Dance 3 is probably the most challenging, at least from what I've noticed.

EA Sports Package 2 is a great one, and is pretty reasonable these days
NFL Training camp - also good, and can be pretty tough, depending on how hard you push yourself!
Zumba Fitness (I think there are a few versions of this one out now)

Anything of the games where the purpose is how much and how accurately you move will be great for fitness!

Oh, another thing I thought of gibs!

If you really like the dance games and think that's something you can be dedicated to doing regularly for exercise, you might want to invest in some cheap ankle and wrist weights. They sell them at places like Wal-Mart for $10 or less. They are kind of nice because the added weight forces your body to work a little harder while you're moving about, so you're burning more calories - and they velcro-strap right to your wrists and ankles so you can still handle the controller for the Wii

Just a thought!
