Although it's been some time since the Kinect Fitness Challenge ended, I still use the device to exercise at home. I'm happy to report that while things were starting to get a bit dull with the "traditional fitness" titles (games created for working out), the arrival of Kinect Star Wars in my home has shaken things up in the best way possible.
