UFC Personal Trainer: The Ultimate Fitness System Review

Introduction
There is not much to say about this as an intro. It is meant as an exercise tool, and you either use the Wii Remote, the Kinect or Playstation Move to work up your upper body strength. If you don't like that kind of thing, this will not make you like it. That is basically all I can say. Why am I reviewing something that sounds so boring? For you fine folks at home. So, is it any good?

The Review
I guess it is okay for exercise, but not okay for entertainment. The "replay value" is pretty good with this "game" because of the fact that you can do 30 and 60 day exercise programs, so it helps to keep you playing. The voice acting for the trainers is great, and they really sound like they want to help you get fit. When this game tries, it can make exercise entertaining if you give it a chance. Also, there are video tutorials to show you how to do the exercises and stuff, and the videos are of quite high quality.

I feel dirty for looking at this...
The "game" has it's problems though. The sound clips and effects often repeat a lot, which makes them annoying and sound unnatural. The warm-ups are too repetitive for their own good as well. There is only one warm-up: get ready to do some arm circles. The graphics in general are bland, and the animations can be a little "messed up" sometimes too.

The game can be entertaining when it tries.
Highlights
The Good: Not bad replay value, great voice acting, it can make exercise more entertaining, and
the video tutorials are of high quality.

The Bad: Repeating sound clips are annoying, the warm-ups are repetitive and the graphics in general do not look the best.

The Result: I give it 3 out of 5.
