Anyone recommend any of the Kinect exercise games?

I got my kids a Kinect for Xmas, and it has been sitting there collecting dust, since about 2 weeks after they opened it, but I was thinking about picking up Zumba or Biggest Loser or one of those games for the 360 to use with it, but I don't want to get something that's going to be crap. Anyone recommend a game that they have used and found it to be productive? I do have Dance Central, which can be quite the workout, just wondering if there's anything else out there that isn't just shovelware.

Thanks!

    UFC is a great workput a coupkle of my friends do it and absolutely love it.

    Fruit Ninja is meant to be good too as it is primarily a fun game that makes you get a sweat on

    The EA Sports Active is actually pretty good. I was pleasantly surprised with it. It also comes with a heart rate monitor and will give you an idea of the calories you have burned. I did the 9 week program on hard.

    I love Your Shape and Biggest Loser. Great exercises and pretty user friendly. The calorie count is fairly close to what shows on my HRM so I'm happy with that!

    I need to check into this, it's supposed to be like $6 at Costco this week. Thanks for the tip.

    I say for $6 it is a no brainer. I paid full pop for it and didn't regret it. Granted I have moved on to p90x and insanity now, but we still pop it in around here. Kids love it too.
