Kinect video game review and GIVEAWAY

 And the winner is.....
 
I was recently given the opportunity to review a new X-box Kinect game called Your Shape: Fitness Evolved. I was excited to try it out and wasn't sure what to expect.  I thought it might be somewhat like the Wi Fit, but for x-box.  While the concept is similar, it is definitely different.  This game was designed for adults, but the kids certainly enjoyed it too.  The best part is that the Kinect uses your image, so as you work out, you are actually on the screen in live-action. They call it full body tracking and it is amazing!  Instead of 16 dot tracking like other games, it uses one million dots on your body! This really helps you make sure you are doing the exercises correctly. Here's a picture from the Amazon site to show an example of how beneficial that feature is:

 You can see in the picture that you can compare how you are doing the exercises to the image on the left. You can also see that it tracks your calorie burning while you work out!  I really enjoyed playing the games!  If Your Shape: Fitness Evolved sounds good to you, why don't you enter to win!  In order to play it, you will need an X-box kinect. Just leave me a comment for an entry.  For additional entries leave a comment for each of the following:
