Ubisoft's Your Shape To Feature Classes, Cardio Workouts

Exercise without weights or a controller.

Assassin's Creed Brotherhood developer Ubisoft is poised to be one of the first studios ushering fitness to the living room via Kinect, the Xbox 360's hands-free controller. 

The game? It's called Your Shape: Fitness Evolved and it appears as if it could provide a meaningful level of fitness challenge. During Microsoft's E3 2010 press briefing, it was announced that the Your Shape is set to feature real cardio workouts like kickboxing, as well as casual low-impact exercises, and even yoga. 

A full-body scan will determine workout loads, while an on-screen trainer will provide motivation via voice and muscle envy. But if exercise isn't what you want, you'll also be able to take "classes" inside the game.

Do I get to determine my own target shape?

Ubisoft should spend more time making games, not promoting fake fitness.

I don't need a silly game to be motivated to train. I play games to chill out, after a long day of work, or a good workout session.

Why does that subtitle evoke another popular game
 
I wonder if MS had a hand in this one aswell.
