GameBike: Playstation controller

bike video game

Like we've said before, the combo of gamer and fitness buff seems like it would be a rare breed, yet the products keep coming. And while we've looked at game companies that have begun tapping the fitness craze with their own workout/gaming devices (like the Kilowatt Game Controller), it seems like the new MO is tricking out your standard bike as game controller. CatEye makes the GameBike which allows the user to place his/her bike into the holster, use the handlebars as controller and pedals for speed, for any PlayStation 2 race game. A few MIT students have also had a similar idea with their CycleScore, but have connected the bike to a decidely unfun sounding game with a hotair balloon.
