Shape Up
I was a bit skeptical of Shape Up at
first. This Ubisoft exercise video game reminded me of the Family
exercise games from the past on the Wii. Yeah they were fun. Yeah they
gave us exercise. But they were too hard, and the controls were sketchy.
Shape Up works so much better thanks to the Xbox One and Kinect 2.0. I
understand there are lazy slothful people out there. Not everyone is
going to have the motivation to exercise like I do. Not everyone is
willing to work hard at everything they do. This is where Shape Up comes
in to play. It tries to make exercise fun.
Sure some of the stuff in Shape Up is lame. Like doing pushups with an
elephant on your back. Puh-lease. But the human being is doing pushups
and that is the important key factor we can not lose sight of. I welcome
any video game that can get video game gluttons off the couch and into
some real world physical activity. Who knows, maybe they will decide to
venture outside next. And then maybe they will run into another human
being and have a real world conversation. Shape Up could be the first
step along a long path to recovery. For that it should be applauded.
