There's nothing at all questionable about The Biggest Loser - unless you find exercise in some way offensive!
If you've tried to exercise before, but have always needed that bit of extra encouragement, The Biggest Loser is well worth a go. While it would be nice if the game could somehow send you messages to remind you that you need to load the game up, the structured fitness plan is sure to have you coming back - and the great learning curve gives you less reason to skip because you can't take the strain!
While The Biggest Loser isn't really suitable for children to play, it does support four player multiplayer over Xbox Live, if you fancy sharing your workout with your online friends. Of course, there's nothing to stop your real-life friends joining in the exercise with you by standing in the same room - just make sure they're off camera!

8/10
Controls
Responsive and accurate, with only two problems - the first, if you don't have enough space, as our 8ft wasn't quite enough for the routines that involved lying on your back, while the second is if you have a cat, and they happen to either walk past you, or climb on top of you while you're lying on your back, *trying* lift your hip as the game asks.
8/10
Learning Curve
Eases you into exercise, and gives you as much support as you could hope for.
Overall
Biggest Loser? Not really.
8/10
