    My husband and I played for the first time last night. I really enjoyed Dance Central. I like to dance, and I was able to work up a sweat. The kinect sports and kinect adventures also get your heart rate going.

    I recently got Zumba Fitness for the Wii and I count it as exercise. I wear my HRM and burn close to as many calories as I do when I exercise to the video. If you work hard you can break quite a sweat!

    Yes I use my kinect games and zumba as exercise. I wear an HRM so I know what I have burned. It is a fun way to burn calories and if it is fun I am more likely to do it! I have zumba and actually the new adventure game that comes with it it fun and burns quiet a few calories. We also have the sports one and two. I just mix it up. I want a Just Dance and the fitness evolved too.
