Addictive, but games disappoint

The success of Nintendo's Wii has shown that turning exercise into a game really can work, and walk with me is an excellent evolution of that idea.

It's simple to set up, and then it's just a case of putting the activity meter in your pocket and forgetting about it.

At the end of the day, it's quite exciting to see how far you've gone, and anyone with a competitive edge will soon be hooked, particularly if you're playing against family members.

However, the included games are a little disappointing, and it's unlikely you'll return to them after an initial play. That said, the tracking element of the game alone is more than enough to keep you coming back.

For a parent trying to convince their child to exercise, or anyone who feels they should be doing more, walk with me is an excellent way to make exercise a little more fun.
