Rave Walk It Out deserves its own LOVE thread!!

[Patti S.]

Nice to see there's still some WIO fans here. I've gotten 100% completion twice, it's super addicting.

I've gotten a few full islands, too. =) It had been a while since I pulled WIO out, but I'm glad I thought to the other day!

It really shocks me that there haven't been other similar games come out. I remember it was the #1 selling video game on Amazon for a while. They could have done a whole series and sold tons of them! (I have about 16 Virtual Active treadmill runs, and walk in place in my living room while I watch the scenery of different cities and countries go by. You can bet your bippie I'd have bought every WIO location they cared to make in the series at full price!) But not only no WIO2, but nothing else like it that I've heard of!

Almost makes me wanna go back to school to get a degree in video game programming...

Count me as one who still loves WIO too! It's just so stupidly satisfying. I always try to get the rainbow when I play, and I'm still working on collecting all the song and time pieces, before I build too much of anything - I figure that way I can make it last a little longer, and have more music to use while I'm building.

I really don't get why they didn't make more of them either - it's such a simple basic concept, and from there the possibilities are endless.

Miroman, great minds DO think alike.... we seem to have the same tastes - WIO, Classical Stretch, and now Virtual Active. I have a ton of them. I would definitely buy any more versions of WIO.

Sassy, that's what I'm focusing on in my new island - getting the songs first. And the routes. Then I'll build up my island. I guess I should focus on the timepieces too, since some things are only available at certain times.

People on Amazon were clammering for a WIO 2, but it never happened.

Virtual Active =) How do you do your VA, Joan? Do you treadmill-it, or something less traditional?

I know you weren't asking me, but I have a Bellicon and will jog to my Virtual Actives. The combination of the view and the movement on the rebounder is incredibly relaxing.

But I welcome your input nonetheless, Jill!

I had an inexpensive Weider minitramp that I used it once and then got rid of because it was hard and hurt. I'd love to try a more expensive one - but they're more expensive.

For the VAs that don't have Johnny leading I put on Pandora's "Alternative Endurance" channel, and I just use them as walks when I don't have a lot of energy. I think my fave at the moment is Northern France. =)

That is exactly what I do with my Jumpsport.

In fact, I use the trampoline for WIO as well, really pumps up the sweat especially during "Vacation" and "Get UR Freak On".

Miroman, I bought a Wonder Core from HSN specifically to do the cardio. It's kind of like a sitting mini-stepper.

I've found out I can do a lot of the pilates Wunda Chair exercises with it too!
