And the funny thing is--I hate EA games-haven't found one that I would consider truly "good". So I'm not optimistic about it.

The interesting thing--the leg band goes on the thigh, not the ankle--and it holds the nunchuck, which doesn't have as much sensitivity as the Wiimote.

Thanks for the heads up. Sounds like it could be fun. I've had good experience with EA games in the past (at least on PC).

Cool
This is the best I have heard yet. I think what they are doing right now is working the bugs out and one thing they are finding is that we are not all starting with get off the couch and turn the lights out in your kitchen. I sent them an e-mail that we are not all 900 pounds and lifting out hands over our heads is not a workout. The funny thing is that I e-mailed Jillian and told them that we want it hard. I answered a survey. I told them we were looking to tone not starting from scratch. I tell you some of the woman that I work out with can kick some but.

Find my free blog chatthefat for the 27 rules I live by.
Thanks

After doing some research on My Personal Trainer, for which there seem to be no reviews posted yet, I came across information on a new fitness game that is to be released in the Spring of 2009.

EA Sports Active - Following is the information along with a couple of links for those interested in checking it out. Certainly looks like some potential there.

Another upcoming game that Wii Fit owners might be interested in (if it turns out to be any good) is EA Sports Active. It uses the balance board and comes with a resistance band as well as a leg band that holds the nunchuck on your leg for squats. It's supposed to be released early next year.
