The growing popularity of the Wii Fit has finally driven gaming rivals Microsoft to launch their own version of virtual exercise game for Xbox 360. Dubbing the Wii Fit program as the “stuff for wimps”, Xbox-ercise aLive’s marketing director Todd Belham emphasized that their exercise game will feature a lot more violent actions like bashing the controller on a couch or an inflatable companion, which burns more calories than dance or yoga. Of course the company went on to stress over and over that they will not take responsibility for accidental injury or death caused by the use of the Xbox-ercise program and that the subscription-based fitness program will have four tiers available to customers ranging from $200 to $2000- a year. We definitely see MS getting the advantage of superior graphics in this fitness war and if you’re also one of those anti-social kinds just waiting for someone to order you to punch something to smithereens, then you can get your own subscription to the Xbox-ercise aLive from the Xbox Live Marketplace starting this June.

200-2000? That’s a pretty hefty price if you ask me. Personally I would much rather just go take a mile jog and save that money for a sweet new cpu or mobo. But the Wii Fit sure did get a head start on MS and has really benefited from it. Although, I’m sure that MS will still get the better part of the deal with a bunch of fans just buying the x-box version just because it is the x-box version.
Still looks like a pretty sweet product.
That new is a fake.
