Kinetic (for the PS2 or X Box) - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

I bought Kinetic last night, and tried it for the first time this morning. It was my first attempt at using an Eye Toy, so that took a bit of time to get use to. Overall, I think the "game" is quite fun. Has anyone tried it?

Here's a review that I think is helpful:

That looks really fun. Do you like it so far? What is it like? I have heard everyone that has it say that they love it.

I watched the little clips on it from that link and it looks fun, I just don't know if I could get used to seeing myself on the tv, let alone running around like an idiot on it.

How much is it for both the game and the camera?

I absolutely love it so far!! It's a great workout. I did it for the first time on Friday, and I was extremely sore on Saturday. It was so fun, though, that I didn't notice how great of a workout was, until I was done with it and breathing incredibly hard! The only downside that I can currentely think of is that it takes a lot of space. I kicked the chair this afternoon!

It was strange to see myself on TV at first, but I got use to it

The camera comes included with the game. I believe Best Buy has it for $49.99, but I'm not completely sure. (My husband works there, so I can use his employee discount.)

If someone already has a PS2 or X Box, and they have lots of space, I'd recommend this to anyone!!

I have seen and heard of this but prefer the DDR. I had my son hook up the eye toy and I got discouraged by watching myself make a fool dancing around like an idiot! LOL!!!

I stick NOT using the eye toy when I DDR. LOL!! But if you have the courage to watch yourself...go for it!!!

Have FUN!!!

i'm using yourself fitness for xbox currently; i'm out of shape and have a LONG way to go on my fitness journey.

kinetic sounds kind of neat; is it for xbox too? the gamespot link only showed me ps2 matches. (i have a ps2 but it's in storage all the way across the country!)

I think Kinetic is only for PS2, but I'm not 100% sure. It's a blast. I can't say how much I love it!!
