Re: Review: PowerUp Heroes (Xbox 360)

OK so I ponied up the dough for this game at full price and for fitness It is well worth it. Only if you go full out though. If you only pose you arent getting the full experience. I use this as a fast work out. I log it as karate in my calorie app on y phone and the phone says I'm easily burning 135 calories in 10 minutes. I attack it like Tae Bo. My buddy who uses a heart rate monitor says Im probably closer to 300 calories in 15 but I keep the 135-190 my phone says. The tracking is sometimes off but not much. I think it has to do with my full strikes vs posing. For comic nerds who need to get into shape whith very little time on thier hands...WIN.

When gaming worlds collide...it could be cute!

Edit: 10/27/11 I realized this morning that MS took the app down again. I read an article that said it was coming out next week! That makes sense as the release was in early Nov. last year. I lucked out with at least 25 others (according to review numbers the last I saw) and got it yesterday. I finally got my Sabertooth "Victor" off my xbox and on my phone. The key was to have him active in the game then go to the scan stone. "T'Challa" the black panther got lots of "Awwwwws" at work yesterday. Even from some of the guys who are into Batman: Arckham City right now. No one is completely immune to the power of cute!

James I disagree that it's for two totally different markets. I'd love to say that I'm alone as the only adult player of this game that is a WP7 user but Iknow I'm not. I cant wait for this! My kids will love it too. Anybody know if they have announced a date?
