    I love Dance Central in Workout Mode. Right after you pick easy, medium or hard you can select WorkOut Mode, enter your weight and it'll calculate how many calories your burning per performance :)

    cool thanks guys. Another question for anyone reading. What do you log it as on mfp?

    You can log it as Xbox Kinect (name of game) and then how many calories burned. I found that MFP didn't have some of the Wii Fit activities I was doing and since my Wii Fit tells me how many calories I burned while doing each exercise, I "add exercise to the database" when entering them into my daily exercises. Basically, if you can' find it in MFP's list, you can add it yourself and since your game will tell you how many calories you burn, you can enter that. Also, a lot of people use Heart Rate Monitors and enter calories that way...I don't own one so I rely on MFP or the actual machine I'm on to tell me what I've burned.

    I have EA Sports Active 2. Comes with a heart rate monitor. Once I started using it, I set up a new exercise called EA Sports Active 2 and input the calories the HRM told me I burned.
    Now I have a "real" HRM and input whatever it tells me I burned for any exercise I do.

    And it seems to underestimate your calories burned so you won't be overeating by accident.
