Active Video Gaming (Exergaming) is Good For Children's Health

It's no secret that levels of inactivity and obesity are very high in our current population of children. In fact, less than half of primary school kids meet the minimum levels of activity that are required to maintain health. Active video gaming, however, can stem that tide. Known as exergaming, using active console video games that track player movement could become a good alternative form of exercise.

I had no idea that physical activity was good for children. It would be amazing if it was also good for adults too.

I know, right? Next thing you know they'll be saying fruits and vegetables make for a healthy diet for adults too.

Exergaming lmfao. Why would any kid want to be stuck in the house playing video games all day? When I was a kid, I always went outside with friends, the only time I stayed in to play video games was if it was raining, or none of my friends were home.

I was the opposite, I preferred to stay inside and get to the next stage (or beat a game); I rarely wanted to go out because the area I lived there wasn't many kids my age that didn't stay out of trouble.

OT

DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) is a very good exercise game, and I'm an adult who still plays it.

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
