My draft proposal:

Insert cd into Xbox
Game comes up
Screen Flashes "GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY!!!"
Can you be my new best friend?
New denotes you got rid of your last one. Grind'em up, feed'em to the sharks, or Viking funeral, which was it!!?

Michelle seems to forget that games are played for fun, not to become more healthy. If she finds a way to combine the 2, more power to her.
I wish for a VR kinda suit+room in which i need to actually run and duck around to move, playing CoD 54 or so. You'll see me get healthier real fast, real soon. Hell you'd go on a diet just so you can keep up

Until that time, i laugh at people who play wiifit or whatever it's called!

Viking Funeral obviously. Sadly he was still kinda... Alive at the time.

Well, first things first, try and promote not having macho bullshit all over the pl- oh, a VIDEO game.

There's books for intructing you in fitness, any "game" that tells you about being in shape is not a game, it's either a boring "edmuncation" program or an interactive book.

Unfortunately this initiative is doomed to repeat history.

'Eating more whole grains' alone is not the way to teach people to be healthier. Diet only goes so far. Eating whole grains only goes so far.

Going outside (which would kill the console industry) isn't going to be taught by people who want to make money by selling games, just like eating more whole grains will be detrimental to the white bread cartels.

How about she does something that matters, like make Obama come up with a better solution to the problem with our economy that is failing. Obama is the worst president ever, there, I said it. I'm all for getting kids more active, but I hardly consider it to be a pressing issue with two wars going on and an economy that is going to destroy America.

You know, now that I got the PokeWalker, I might actually take more walks. I know that sounds so dumb, but it's true.

Assassin's Creed or Prince of Persia, methinks. Those games made me want to learn parkour. But, I overdid it and went hardcore.

Steve Carrell can't look me in the eyes anymore.

graphics are very important to me, and to many other people, i dont dislike the idea behind the wii, just think they rushed it, i am going to get the sony motion when that comes out. and then ill be playing socom 4 with awesome graphics, and hopefully awesome gameplay,

what will you playing on your wii?
hmm..lemme see.. no more heroes 2, mario galaxy 2, metroid other M red steel 2, and hopefully a new zelda. you just hate nintendo, but i grew up with it. i love playing classics that i expeireinced as a kid on virtual console. the PS3 and 360 AR oK, but their not my type.
keep your opinion to yourself. dont go blatting out saying the wii is shite dont buy it.also i have a Pc that can kick a 360's/ps3's ass go suck on THAT
