If video games keep getting users up and out of their seats, they're going to soon loose their place on the list of 10 Most Wanted Obesity Culprits. Games such as Dance, Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero, and Wii Sports are getting gamers up and on their feet, and moving the hobby away from its couch potato image. And though some of these games don't provide the rigorous workouts required by organizations like the American Heart Association, they are getting people off their duffs. Some games can also provide distraction during a workout, much like an mp3 player or TV. So what are the best games out there for working out?
  • Dance, Dance Revolution
  • Wii Sports
  • Cybex Trazer
  • Expresso Fitness S2
  • Smart Cycle (for young children)
  • Motivatrix MX Workout Master
