The Kinect actually "sees" you, so you are able to be the thing jumping instead of hitting a button or using wrist movement to do the full action. I did the fruit ninja game and felt my arms getting a work-out. I just did the Adventures game with my youngest and actually was sweating after a couple of rounds! We did one where you are on a type of push rail car and you have to jump, duck or lean to one side or the other. I absolutely felt all the movements! It also took several embarrassing photos while we were playing.
*Menacing look* Stay OUT of my xbox files if you value your eyes!
The Wii was great when we got it and I enjoyed the Wii Fit games. They were a good work-out but got boring quickly. The Kinect games are so varied, I'm not sure how sick of them I'll get. I'm also seriously Jonesing for the Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012.
It looks Suh-weet! So, any Microsoft folks out there that might read this...hook me up and I will post a full review on every site I can about it!!!!!Right now, I'm watching a 6-year-old bounce around, contorting her body into angles a Yogi would be jealous of just to play a boxed version of dodgeball. She's adorably pink-cheeked and ready to keep going as long as I let her. She also loves tossing a pose at the very end so she can see herself in one of the crazy on-screen photos. It's like fashion-diva meets roller-coaster quick shot! I think I'll sit and giggle quietly in the corner while she plays. Then, when she's not looking, I will take over and show off some mad skillz. Don't be hatin'.
*snicker, snicker*
Coming soon: New Year's cocktails for the low-sugar, low-gluten crowd. Heck yeah.
