Really? Whats different about it?

I really enjoy the games, especially Kung Fu and Biking. I don't even know I am exercising!

What did they do in Active to make it so much more fun?

Well so far (I have only done it one day, but my husband has done it for a while) it is just more updated, per say, than wii fit. It is more specific exercises that are concentrated better on specific areas. No so much more "fun" for me, but more productive.

Oh I see, your tastes are different. I totally skip the strength training exercise and go straight for the fun cardio games. The Wii Fit PLUS is like 100x better than the first one.. IF your into the games! =) I will see if i can get my hands on the Active without buying it and try it out. I get bored to quickly with serious exercise so I do stuff like Wii fit plus and Water Aerobics & martial sex.

I have a bunch of WII fit games and I have a bunch of games like biggest loser and golds gym. I have always worked out pretty aggressively and I was wondering what everyone else thought of the work out you get from the games. I will admit I haven't really given them a chance I just wonder if its more fun than exercise? I suppose at the end of the day any movement is better than no movement at all right?

I can vouch for the workout I get on Active vs Fit, and I am telling you it works you out! I did it 2 days ago for the first time, and I am still so sore I can hardly move. It was some good stuff! I didn't get anything out of the fit in the past, but I never tried the new one. Active is enough for me, I am going to stick with that!
