The Ultimate Fighting Championship’s first jump into videos games with motion sensory is UFC Personal Trainer: The Ultimate Fitness System. The game was developed by THQ like the UFC Undisputed series but unlike that series this is not actually a game in the true sense of the word. It is more about being a workout system with game like characteristics thrown in. The game is available to be used on the Nintendo Wii. The game needs room, as in the entire room. You must have sufficient space to lie flat in front of the TV without any peripheral things like chairs and night tables getting in the way. Before starting the workout you need to go through an evaluation of your personal fitness. You need to enter in age, weight and height and then perform exercises like sit ups, jumping jacks and push ups to see how many of each you can do in a minute. You then learn to check you heart rate and once all this is done the machine determines your fitness level starting point beginner, intermediate or expert. After you have all that taken care of you can choose you own MMA trainer to work with each trainer having a particular routine or set of workouts they use. For real diehard UFC followers just being able to work out with one of these coaches makes the game worthwhile. You can either go through an entire workout or specific routines like hitting the heavy bag or hitting mitts or the speed bag. The game itself makes lots of assumptions like you know what is a correct jab or cross or leg whip. Therefore if you are 5% correct with your actions, the game will accept it as good. Feedback it lost in the game because it cannot be specific and causes it to be too generic and technique is not emphasized at all. There are also pre made workout drills that can be done instead of individual activities. The exercise range is from quite easy to quite intense depending on your overall shape but you can work up a good sweat on the upper body pre made workouts or with a workout program you design yourself. Remember the game is not to teach you to be a MMA fighter since it is 99% fitness and a weak 1% martial arts. There are a number of good exercises besides the striking techniques and you if they were used on a regular basis it may just help someone look like one of those MMA fighters. BUT look, not be like. It really is not a game as was mentioned earlier. How can it be if you do not even have a sparring partner. The game comes with multiplayer but that only really amounts to is you have someone to do your workout with. It would be better to be able to spar with the likes of Wanderlei Silva, now we are talking fun. Best Wii Games
