    "Terrible, Unresponsive - not motivating at all"

    by oceannadelamer on November 23, 2008

    Pros: The boot camp idea sounded great, I like the fact that it goes from running to an exercise and back and shifts like that.

    Cons: Running is almost impossible, most of the exercises are hard to manoever with a nunchuk and remote, so have to try to go back to two controllers, but had to restart. Graphics are terrible.

    Summary: I've only used it three times and I just don't feel like it is worth my frustration or time. To get the character to move I don't think I am even doing worth while exercises and my posture has to be bad just to get the thing to move. Running with the nunchuk attached almost got me strangled, you have to move the thing so high and fast. Maybe I need to re-adjust my sensors, but I have no clue as so how to make this work better. Not motivating, very frustrating. Music is not motivating either. I don't recommend this game, rent it if you want to try, but it has very few redeeming features. DIsappointing.

    I must ask you what intensity level you were working out on, because I have never had such unresponsive issues with this game. I also must ask you where your sensor bar is placed...running is probably the easiest exercise in the game. All you do is run on the spot like they tell you to. Of course, the trick is to swing your arms, as that's really how they pick up your motions, but that's what you do when you're jogging in reality anyway. It's a piece of cake to get the character to start running, and the green bar filled to the top at the light intensity..and it's not really that bad at medium either. I have never had to "move the thing so high and fast". I also didn't strangle myself while running..ever..not even close.

    I hate to say it, but I feel like many people who complain about the nonresponsive game don't really know how to move the remotes properly.
