Pretty Cool!
I own the Wii Fit since last week. I'm 32, 1.76m, ~82-84kg (fluctuates) and with my wedding coming up in a few months I wanted to lose some weight. I work all day and have little time in the evenings so the preparation and driving to and from the gym was too much. I wanted to use that 30-40 min to exercise, not prepare for exercise. I own a Wii since Xmas and decided to try this out after reading various reviews on the internet. Is this as good as going to the gym? No it does not replicate a gym. Will it get the job done? Will it keep you fit and help you lose weight? YES YES YES! I love it and highly recommend it. I get a great work out in 45 min. I feel great about myself, and have already lost a kilo. (note I have not changed my diet). Notice I get my work out in as much time as it takes to commute and prepare for gym. I also have more fun than going to the gym on my own. Perhaps going to a gym with a friend would be more fun. Depends. Anyway I love the Wii Fit! Note it takes a few times to get used to it and figure out how best to use it. Why? Well there is no prepared program for you. You have to decide on your own what you want to do and in what sequence. I start off by doing the aerobics (jogging, holla hoop) and then vary. Basically, the Wii Fit breaks its exercises into Muscle, Balance, Aerobics, and Yoga. I mainly doing the Aerobics and mix in some muscle and yoga. The muscle and yoga can be really tough. You wouldn't believe how much. You can really feel the muscles working. I do the balance exercises when I'm tired and want to relax a bit in between exercises. They may help with balance but are more of a game than anything else. The more you exercise, new exercises open up. In other words, you start of with a limited about of stuff to do and slowly you get more and more. Don't listen to the few negative reviews you may read on the internet. They were probably biased against the product before even trying it. This product costs a little more than going to the gym for a month (at least in my country). By the time I unlock all the exercises, I will have exercised more than a 1-month gym subscription, burnt more calories, and will have a fun game left too! Compared to nothing after a month at a gym. I highly recommend this. As I explained, you are getting more than your money's worth, having fun, and getting fit.

Excellent! I Highly Recommend Reading this Book !
A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle (2008). A very good read for anyone wanting to expand themselves or enlighten themselves to their real dreams and aspirations. I highly recommend you to read this book. Teaches you a lot. After finishing this book I returned to pursuing my life long goals. ***** 5-Star Book!! Magnificent!

Warning! - Game is Horrible! Dont Read the Good Reviews
I'm a long time Will Wright fan... I've bought and played most of the maxis titles ever since the original simcity, and I've bought all his more recent projects including The Sims and The Sims 2. However, I will NOT be buying Spore the way it is currently packaged! The game secretly installs SecuROM software on your computer, and won't let you install the game more than 3 times total. - Upgrading your computer soon? .. oops, too bad! There goes one of your 3 installs. Need to reformat your computer because its become slow or has a virus? Oops, there goes one of your 3 installs. Need to uninstall the game to make space for other games and want to reinstall it in the future to play it again? Oops, There goes one of your 3 installs. Have more than one computer in your house that you want to install Spore on? Maybe a desktop and a laptop? Or a laptop and two home desktops? Oops, there goes 2 or in the case of the later, all three of your 3 total installs that you get for the game. Boycott this game until EA wises up and gets rid of this annoying DRM they package with it. Don't Purchase this game, its over advertised and too protected. Please Vote "Yes" if this review was helpful to you.
