The game will cost only $60, compared to Wii Fit's $90, and it won't require the balance board to use it. Instead, you'll use an elastic leg strap to do exercises with. My prediction: it'll be as low-impact as the Wii Fit, and it will sell like hotcakes. Oh, America. [EA Sports Active via Boy Genius Report]

As a whole, I feel that EA Sports Active would give users a more well-rounded workout than Wii Fit, but the fact that it is designed to work in tandem with the balance board makes it that much more effective. The EA package will set you back another $60 when it is released next Spring—but even combined with Wii-Fit you are still spending less than most gym memberships—plus it is more convenient and, most likely, more fun.
