I'm with you. I'm going to wait until it goes way down in price, just in case I don't love it. The demo was pretty good, intense, but good. Have you tried that??

Thanks for the info. I think i'm going to wait until I can get it for a good price, in case I can't get much out of it for awhile.
Squats and running aren't an issue, but I generally don't do floor exercises like planks, because of pain in my knees making getting up and down from the floor an issue. Also avoid jumping exercises, because I have bad ankles and have to be careful about not turning them.

If your not used to squats, planks, pushups, and running, I would suggest trying something easier than Kinect training. You can skip the workouts you don't want to do. I have moderate strength in my arms and legs and I still find this a challenge. The game will push you to your limits. I switch this game out with dance central 3 because my thighs have been on fire since I started it. I also do the cardio program 4 days out of the week. Another reason my thighs are on fire. You may not burn as much as if on a treadmill but you will be worked out. My opinion anyway

I looked at this one, but was concerned it might be a bit too advanced for me. Does it have an "easy" level like Sports Active?

I'm thinking about getting this game. First I need to get back to working out here at home. I've so slacking off in that dept!

I'm excited to hear your review. I am very interested in this game as I tried the demo and really liked it except for the part where I felt like he wanted me to jump halfway across my living room!! Seems like a pretty good training program. Keep us posted!

I got the game/workout a month ago and I LOVE IT.
The game keeps me active and working hard the whole time. plus it feels like I have my own personal trainer who I don't want to let down. So it makes me keep up the high level of activity the whole time, rather than get a little lazy half way through.
I have completed one performance plan of work outs and I can feel that my muscles are starting to get a little stronger. I plan on starting my next plan tomorrow.
I can't wait to see what the differenct plans have in store.

CHERRIB0106 I am excited to see what you think once you get to try it out more!
I just got my copy and will be trying it our later today! I will be posting a full review on the site once I have time to explore all the features. Let me know if anyone has questions about the game!
I purchased this game and completed the assessment yesterday. So far I think its really neat and informative. Give you great tips on correcting your form. I haven't started the work outs yet but I can update once I've completed more. Can't wait to see what everyone else thinks.
Loving my 3N1!

Yeah, I know what you mean. He has provided us with so much info and insight and saved me same money too!
Anyone excited about this game yet? It comes out October 30, 2012. At first I thought I was going to be able to sync my Nike Fuel Band with the game but I guess it is just using Nike+ Fuel as a measurement tool. That probably sounded confusing.
It still looks pretty good so far. I am always up for some new workout games to give me variety.
Here is an extended trailer and a couple of screenshots.
