Most people don’t see playing video games as a way of keeping fit. You sit on the floor, or on the sofa and look at the screen… and the only part of your body that moves is your thumb. But that’s all changing… Thanks to a brand new game from Japan called dance dance revolution, gamers are now getting onto the exercise floor. In this case, the floor consists of nine squares. You put one foot in the centre and move your other foot to the dance music that gets faster and faster as you go through the levels. ‘Most gamers just want to go to a fantasy world when they play a video game, but why not have games which are physical as well?’ says one DDR fan. So, who knows? Perhaps the gamers in the future will be fit and healthy people-thanks to dance dance revolution.
