My muscles are throbbing. This morning I had trouble taking the same set of stairs I take daily, the pain alerting me to the presence of tissue I didn't even know existed in my body. I didn't get into a fight and I didn't go to a gym, I just got one intense workout in front of my TV with EA Sports Active 2. Active 2 is the follow up to EA's last exercise game for Wii. This time around, it's being released on both Nintendo and Sony's platforms, utilizing an array of sensors you place on your body to track your movement (and the Wii remote on the Wii version). Players can do pre-planned workouts or multi-week workout programs, design their own workouts, and create plans for themselves that utilize a variety of surveys about the user's general lifestyle to track their progress. You can also work out with a friend as well as track your progress alongside other Active 2 users you know with EA's official website. Active 2 is not a game, so don't go into it expecting to have a ton of fun. I mean if you're the type of person that smiles while they're putting their body through its paces, more power to you. But to me, exercising is a great tool for health, not an activity I look forward to.
Motion sensors haven't really been a catalyst for innovative titles as much as they've given us a vaguely new way of playing the kinds of titles we've had for years. At least fitness games appear to be one of the rarities: a genre that can use the likes of Kinect as more than a flailing novelty, imagine that. Fitness games are one of the few genres where motion sensors are used to fill a legitimate hole in the market, allowing for a steady stream of hands-free workout titles that offer exercise routines which aren't lumbered by a controller.Wii has ruled the market on this for some time. But the trouble with these exer-games, new or old, is that like workout videos it's almost impossible to easily tell them apart. Videos try to bypass this by wrangling in celebrity endorsement, giving you the chance to have quad-toning sessions with Davina. Now this has crossed into games, wheeling out Yank D-lister Daisy Fuentez to teach Pilates amongst others. Regardless, they seem to all blur together in a kind of grey porridge of similar games, so much so that even Beckham's role as "Brand Ambassador" for Active 2 feels a bit devoid of meaning.
