This is an amazing thing I read about in today's news... Apparently kids who play DDR are actually losing weight at it, making it one of the least protestable video-games on the market today. One kid who weighed 350 pounds droppped, with help from a proper diet, to 200 pounds thanks to DDR, which makes exercise fun.
I'm pretty certain that some of you folks around here play DDR, so what's your take? Does this add to the appeal of the game, or is it just a nifty little perk of playing it? Have any of you gone from overweight to a reasonable weight thanks to DDR? My curiosity must be sated, so please, answer if you can!
Also, if you don't have DDR, would you consider buying it, knowing about this benefit?
