I luv luv luv Zumba on my PS3, but I'm looking something new to change it up a bit.....Has anyone tried Just Dance 3 on the other systems? Any others you guys love or that has worked for you?

    Just Dance is great. I lost 5 pounds using it.

    I have a Wii and these are the ones I have + mini review

    Just Dance 2 - fun but not too much of a work out
    Just Dance 3 - fun but again I play for fun not for exercise
    Biggest Loser Game - gets a bit boring but amazing workout, actually end up sore the next day
    Wii fit/Wii fit plus - does nothing for you cardio-wise but the yoga/stretching quite good and it's enjoyable
    Jillian Michaels fitness ultimatum - waste of money :( barely works and no fitness benefit , shame cause I love her
    All Star Cheerleader 1 - crap
    All star Cheerleader 2 - crap
    Allstar Cheerleader 3 - crap
    Wii sports - bit boring, similar to wi fit, does NOTHING exercise wise but semi fun, not really worth it

    I used to do DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) when I was trying to lose weight for my wedding. It worked.

    I have Zumba for the xbox 360 kinect. I heard good things about it but havne't tried it yet. The best game work out I ever got was the DDR games for XBOX.

    I just got Dance Central 3 for Kinect on Black Friday and I LOVE it! I'm having so much fun. It's much more fun to get moving doing that then the actual fitness games.

    Dance Dance Revolution can really burn some calories at the higher difficulties and it's fun, and it's available on any console.

    I love my Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus, but the calories burned aren't that high if that's what you're aiming for.
    I also love Zumba and Dance Central for the Xbox 360.

    I have DDR for the PS2. It's really easy to get those games now, as the PS2 isn't the current gaming model. Very cheap. :D And fun!

    Yes, doing something that you may actually have fun doing that gets you off the couch is definitely a waste of money.
