Wii Active Life Outdoor Challenge

Wii Active Life Outdoor Challenge is the first in the Active Life series and uses an eight pad Active Lifemat and the Wii Remote. It gets pretty physical, and you can find yourself sweating in 10 minutes - it's certainly a workout and often compared to the Wii Fit, although some people find it more suitable for children. It is more "kid friendly" than the Wii Fit, although plenty of adults love it too.

Four year olds love this game, and so do 64 year olds. Some adults have reported that it’s cheaper and better than a gym membership, and certainly being able to work out at home is a big plus and time saver. Kids skip TV including favorite cartoons to play it.

Wii Active Life Outdoor Challenge has over a dozen games, and you can both play by yourself or with multiple players. Some of the games include log jumping, mine cart adventure, river rafting, water trampoline, whack-a-mole and many many more.

No game is perfect and some of the complaints are that a few adults found it got boring pretty quickly. There are also some negative comments on the Active Lifemat. It's NOt wireless, so not only could your Wii potentially get pulled off the shelf, but the cord can wear. there have been some reports of the Active Lifemat behaving erratically and failing. Also, it's tough for two "big" adults to use the mat at the same time.
