EyeToy: Kinetic (PS2)

Strengths: (1) Provides a variety of exercises and challenges (2) Many of the sessions do really make you breathe hard and sweat (3) Great bodypart-specific toning routines

Weakness: (1) Some of the aerobic types of sessions are best done alone if you are moderately easy to embarrass (i.e. you will look silly doing some of these exercises)

EyeToy: Kinetic is a pretty fun way to get a moderately good workout. Some of the boxing type of sessions can really get you breathing hard and the routines that target specific bodyparts (such as the ab routine) are challenging and work well. Also included in the routines (though optional) are stretches and warm ups that prep you for the harder exercises. The game acts as somewhat of a personal...

Eye Toy: Kinetic (PS2)

Strengths: Exercise routine, newer USB Camera

Weakness: Not very responsive, slow load time

I purchased this hoping for a good workout and some fun. It was fun at first since you can have a personal trainer and work on certain areas. Nike has a part in this game too. The load times were longer than I liked and the camera recognition was poor. If you have low lighting in your living room, the camera will not pick up the image well. Kinetic comes with a snap on adapter for the USB Camera...

EyeToy: Kinetic

Strengths: updated webcam, fun workout

Weakness: N/A

EyeToy:Kinetic offers gamers an excellent way to perform a series of cardiovascular exercises by interacting with their Playstation 2 through the use of their arms, body and legs.

EyeToy Kinetic

Sony's EyeToy has done a great job of offering gamers new ways with which to interact with their PlayStation 2, allowing them to make use of their arms, bodies and whatever else to actually participate in the onscreen action rather than just pressing simple buttons to do so. With all of the full-body interaction that's possible with the EyeToy, implementing it into a full fitness routine was a...

EyeToy: Kinetic

Do you work too much to workout? Are you tired of hearing about Tae-Bo? Do you wish you looked like a sexy supermodel, but fear you have more in common with Snorlax than Cindy Crawford? We all live busy lives of boredom. Adding a workout program to our list of duties is just crazy. Unless there was a way to take the "work" out of the workout. Is such a thing even possible? Only when you're having...
