Stefanie M: I have a few work out games but this one blew them all away!! Everytime you do an exercise it gives you points and you watch your little mii character walk around the world. It sounds a bit cheesy but in the past it did make me use it a bit more to get to the next country. I love the fact that there's a lot of variety. There's a few games, 3 aerobic dance modes like salsa and hip hop, martial arts like karate and kickboxing (one of my faves), and stretching like yoga and pilates. You have the option of using one or two controllers or even using a workout video mode so you don't have to bother with any controllers. You can even make your own routines instead of picking a new exercise every few minutes. It will save more than 1 too. The graphics are pretty good, the music isn't annoying (and I've logged quite a few hours on this one so I would know).

If I had any complaints it would be that at the end of an individual exercise the "person" instructing it will talk to you and there is no way to skip over it. It can be annoying if you're doing multiple activities. And, it's the type of game that the more you play the more activities and modes you unlock. I'd love for at least...

Jo365: I have a whole series of Wii workouts including this one, Wii fit, Biggest Loser Challenge, Fitness 2013 (Wii U), New U Yoga and Gold's Cardio. I think I have another one or two.. This one is THE MOST FUN by far. The workout isn't hard, but it is great for my "rest day" every week. By far this has the BEST cool down in their stretch area.

At first it is super slow, but I am now even at "Greece" yet and I have opened up personal trainer mode which allows you to put workouts back to back so it is faster and you can get a decent sweat going. I am NOT a dancer, as you can see by the titles I have bought. However, there dance workouts are really accessable and doable for people with no beat like chicks like me and possibly men. And they are really fun!

If you use Wii workouts as an intregal part of your training, I'd highly recommend this one as your cool down and easy day.

Heidi: This exercise game is a lot of fun. I wasn't expecting to much considering the low price but I was really surprised. There are many exercises to do and a lot of variations. There are stretching exercises, yoga, pilates, and dancing, and kickboxing and so much to keep you interested and motivated. No chance of boredom here. For the price it is a real bargain.

Chandler: calories:

I wear a bodybugg (what you see on the arms of Biggest Loser contestants) to measure my calories burned as well as a display to show how many I burn per minute. This also allows me to compare workout and fitness games and DVDs. Because the game asks you your age and weight it has some input as to how much it expects you to burn in the timeframe it calculates. However it does not ask you your height so it really has no clue as to how fit you are. Because of this I was a little surprised to see my own calorie count was quite close to what I actually burned BUT I did jumping jacks or walked in place whenever we traveled the map. I am shocked it doesn't tell you to do so. If you don't, all that work getting your heart rate up goes undone if you do different workout segments as your heart rate won't stay elevated and you won't burn as many calories.

Fun

I have an enormous library of aerobics DVDs in spite of my lack of coordination and I have to say this is the first one to make aerobics fun because you are concentrating on getting those rhythm points which adds another dimension to working out. And takes away the boredom so it becomes a game. The scenery...

Elizabeth: I've been using Exerbeat for about 2.5 weeks now, and one the whole I like it A LOT. However, I'll talk about the negative things first.

1) It's kinda cheesy. The first thing you see is this big animated orange music note that guides you through the game. It looks like something from elementary school, bred with the old MS Office paperclip, but it's far less intrusive than the paperclip. Basically, it greets you (with text that oddly types out into a word balloon) when you start the game each time ("Hello Elizabeth, it's good to see you back for the second day in a row!") and tells you that you did a good job when you're done. The cheesiness stops being remarkable after a while.

2) It's annoyingly time consuming at first. There's this thing called "Walk Around the World" that's actually a cool way of visualizing your progress through unlocking the game's many unlockables. However, until you unlock the personal trainer mode you have to visit that map after ever. single. exercise. Like, you do 2 minutes of warm up and then spend a minute or so on the map and then go back and do something else, repeat. However, you get past that after the first half hour or hour of...
