This is a typical game for people trying to get themselves in shape. I'm a person that likes customizable workouts. This is great b/c it tracks your heartrate and unlike the others ea active games...not every exercise requires the remote. That's super convenient.

Every time I get to the point of using the resistance bands it won't read my movements at all and I have to keep restarting it. It took me 2 hours to get through 1 exercise set. I would love for that to be fixed. I tried changing batteries, re-setting my Wii, changing controllers, turning everything off and on. It read every other exercise but the band parts.

Great exercise game! I bought it for days I can't get to the YMCA and it more than meets expectations. Gets you warmed up and sweating in no time. I was skeptical at first, I hate Wii Fit because its too childish, this game is like an exercise video that you work along with. The heart rate monitor helps you control your pace, I don't like the resistance bands that it came with but you can get hand weights instead and also change the setting to hand weights so the person that is "you" on the screen has them. This game also work with the Wii balance board but I think its better without it because its not used very much and it interrupts your workout when the board shuts off when not used for awhile. The board is most useful for accurate weight. All in all, 4/5 star game.
I purchased the orginial EA Sports Active last year, and was thrilled with it. With diet and EASA I lost 45 lbs and has kept it off. I recently purchased the EASA 2 and have also been very pleased. I love that this version has Core workouts. The heart rate monitor is great!! ...... The only thing I dont like is that the Wii Remote is rarely used and therefore loses communication with console frequently, which makes me have to stop working out to press the "A" button. Other than that its a kick ass workout that brings on the sweat!!!! I highly recommend this product. Good Job EA Sports Active!!!!
Pretty good dam good game for a work out I cant really compare it to another game this is the first interactive work out game I have ever done. Thought the game would be kind of cheesy and manufactured and dull and I was right but it. The game is not to original and kind of robotic but it gets the job done and dose challenge you so it is worth it, the heart rate monitor is a nice tool to have so you can always try to push yourself harder or know when to take it easy. One malfunction in the game I noticed is on the warm up and cool down is a time when you don't require a Wii remote. Sometimes it will say lost connection with wii remote it gets you out of your rhythm,of what you are doing at the moment and can be quite annoying if it keeps happening. Besides the robotic feel and small bug with wii remote is quite a good game.Read full review
