Joyswag: Get your exercise on with Wii Fit Plus & Active Life Extreme Challenge
As we approach the colder months of the year here at Joystiq HQ, we like to fool ourselves by picking up the latest Wiinovations in the world of game-based exercise equipment, knowing wholeheartedly that they'll never end up getting much use. This year, however, we figured we would extend that same ideological principle to you. We hope that your moral certitude will employ Wii Fit Plus and Active Life Extreme Challenge (it's totally extreme) more than we would! We'll be picking a winner for this enticing exercise pack at random from the folks who comment below -- all you have to do is tell us your favorite exercise fad of all time. Get those finger muscles moving! Leave a comment telling us your favorite exercise fad of all time. You must be 18 years or older and a resident of the US or Canada (excluding Quebec, largely due to Celine Dion) Limit 1 entry per person per day This entry period ends at 2:31PM ET on Monday, November 2 At that time, we'll randomly select one winner to receive a copy of Wii Fit Plus ($20 ARV) and Active Life Extreme Challenge ($60 ARV) For a list of complete rules, click here
Joystiq hands-and-feet-on: Active Life Extreme Challenge
Of all the games on display at Namco Bandai's summer media event, none seemed to want more love than Active Life Extreme Challenge. After all, if you'd just watched the above trailer, would you truly be psyched to play it? Well, we've never been the type to pass on a game just because of a silly premise -- if that were the case, we'd never have known the love of 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand -- so we gave it a shot. Turns out it's not half bad.Sure, you might might be able to play skateboarding, BMX and other extreme sports with a controller, but then you wouldn't look totally goofy -- like we did! Trust us, you've never known humiliation until you've gotten down on your hands and kneed in front of hundred of other journalists to "rock climb" on a plastic mat.%Gallery-51394%
