Are they going to add the Kinect to the database? I don't know if many of you have it, but its a workout playing the games and dancing on that thing. They have the Wii, which it is good, but 80% of the games only require your arm movements. The Kinect allows you to use your whole body. I log about 2hrs every other day playing with the kids or on my own.

    Totally agree the Kinect is a workout in itself the dancing games are tiring I ached first day I went on it. The actual fitness games you can get for it are great to.

    I've been playing "The Biggest Loser" and "Kinect Sports". Playing sports actually helped me burn more calories than Biggest Loser for some reason. I'm looking to get a calorie counter to keep track of the burnt calories, but I'm not looking to spend $100. Any suggestions?

    A lot of people on mfp have posted that the Polar HRMs (FT4 or FT7) cost about that much.
