Fezmid Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 Check out the consumer forums - there's several posts talking about it. I played it Friday at work and it was a blast. After boxing a couple of rounds, I could tell my heart rate was definately up. I think I want one now. CW

Lurker Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 Definitely an aerobic workout if you play long enough. I've had fun playing with the kids today, and the golf game's a blast.
Dwight Drane Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 If you know how to box...and use your skills on the game, you WILL get a workout. The only thing missing is the impact from the blows, and a few ounces off of your wrists. The system really is revolutionary. My mom has been in a wheelchair for years and was able to go bowling again thanks to the Wii. She was giggling like a schoolgirl. Madden is pretty sweet. I haven't started a season yet because I've been doing all the training camp drills to get used to feel and moves. I did have Lindell kick a 45 yarder into a 25mph wind and it fell short for all who care.

Chef Jim Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 I just bought a Roland electronic drum set for myself for Christmas. That's a pretty good workout and you actually have to have some talent.

Chef Jim Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 You apparently have never heard a 4 year old play drums. That's where the electronic set comes in. You play it and listen through headphones.
Fezmid Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 That's where the electronic set comes in. You play it and listen through headphones. My point was that it doesn't mean you need talent to play
Chef Jim Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 My point was that it doesn't mean you need talent to play Ah, I see. I guess my original post should have been that "you need talent to play as well as I do."
Mile High Posted December 28, 2006 Posted December 28, 2006 Yes maybe if people actually did some real exercise, they wouldn't be winded from playing a video game LOL!
GoodBye Posted December 28, 2006 Posted December 28, 2006 Hmmmmm....do they have any tennis games for this thing??
