So I've found out that the XBox Kinect IS the only thing that can actually make exercise fun for me (so that I end up doing it more). Does anyone else here use the XBox Kinect? And if so, what games do you use for exercise?

I've posted a small sampling here: http://www.quora.com...wer/Alex-K-Chen

The main issue is that most of the intense games don't have very good reviews. I am looking for something other than sports/dance/fitness games since those games are boring as dirt to me and remind me way too much of real exercise.

I can't speak of Kinect games, but have you considered regular video games while riding an exercise bike? That's what I do, recumbent bike (so it has a comfortable seat), xbox or wii games -- makes the time go by really fast.

Interesting idea, but the multitasking does reduce your performance on the video game itself, which can be frustrating. Also, there's no incentive to go faster.
