The much anticipated release of the new controller-free Xbox Kinect will be arriving shortly. It only makes sense that a game system that can track your body movements would have to feature some type of exercise related games. This is an idea that was not lost on those responsible for supplying games for the Xbox Kinect, as there will be at least two Kinect fitness games available for playing with Kinect around the time of the release.
Your Shape: Fitness Evolved will offer users a chance to burn calories and get in shape in a variety of ways. The game includes family friendly mini-games, as well as the option of being able to participate in exercise classes or work out with a personal trainer. The game will provide feedback on every movement, which ensures that you will be doing the exercises properly. You will be able to set your goals based on your fitness level and the game will respond accordingly. The visuals that the game provides are intended to make the workout fun and keep you inspired to continue. Your Shape: Fitness Evolved will be available for purchase around November of 2010.
Zumba Fitness for Kinect is another exercise game that has been made to play on Kinect. Zumba Fitness is a unique exercise game that features a dance fitness workout. It features high-energy international and Latin music along with excellent choreography. The game features 30 different routines led by Zumba instructors Tanya Beardsley, Gina Grant, and Zumba creator Beto. Using Kinect you will be able to see yourself on the screen interacting with the game and not have to worry about pausing or stopping to pick up a controller. Zumba is a great dance workout that can help you achieve better endurance, tone your body, and build your strength.
Your Shape: Fitness Evolved and Zumba Fitness will undoubtedly be two of the top Kinect games purchased once they become available. There are many people who will likely find that these games can give them the workout they need without even having to leave their home. This can save them time by not having to travel to complete their workout as well as save people money by not having to join a gym. Your Shape: Fitness Evolved and Zumba Fitness present a couple of intriguing choices for video games, and may actually end up causing local gyms to lose a few customers or possibly even adopt to include these titles to be played in their own classes.
Finally, there will also be several dance games like Dance Central available that can also be used for exercise as well as for fun. That is the beauty of the new XBox Kinect system… the possibilities seem quite endless.
