Thumbs up Fitness Games

So I game a decent amount but I've never really ventured into the fitness ones like say the wiifit... Played a bit of DDR at the arcades when I was younger but that's about it.

So I'm wondering which ones people on here have tried and enjoyed since I'm in a fitness spree atm just using my elliptical machine. I really wish to make workouts more fun for me because I seem to have a very short attention span in keeping up with it if I'm not engaged/encouraged enough.

I own a wiiU (plays wii games too) and a PS3 with the move.

WORKOUTS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE FUN.
SUFFERING = RESULTS C:

Why don't you get stepmania and then find a usb DDR mat?
or I guess you can get a Dance Central game for ps3.

i don't want to sink money into ddr mats and whatnot which is why i listed the things i have in the first post.

i want suggestions/info for games that people have played not just suggestions on something you think would be good because i can do that myself.

but I've played both of those, it's not something I think would be good.

Anyway if your goal is to get fit and have fun it would be nice to know the level of your current fitness. For example my girlfriend does Zumba on her PS3 but she does it just because it's fun and not really for fitness since she's at a level where just doing Zumba on a PS3 doesn't really tire her out. If you are already fit then a game like EA Sports Active 2 would be better for you since it's more of an actual workout. Well to be honest I'd suggest doing an actual program like P90x since essentially the only difference between P90X and EA's game is that EA's game has some interaction.

If you want to have fun I'm gonna recommend Dance Central and Zumba Fitness.
Looking beyond games you can get a lot more enjoyment out of your workouts if you do things like join a club, get a workout buddy or even little things like keeping track of your numbers to see improvement.

also, I was joking about the workouts aren't supposed to be fun. How could they not be fun? endorphins, adrenaline, and dopamine are addicting...

edt: you don't need to sound rude when I was only trying to help.
