    I got this game for Christmas and not impressed with it at all. It does not work like it show on tv and it gives me the same workout to do over and over even if I say I want to do a different type of workout. It has no way of showing you the progress of your workout other than if you are moving the correct way. I want to see and feel the results with a workout and with this game I do not.

If the slightest thing moves around you the camera picks that up and gives me a bad score as a mother of 3 trying to get all alone for a full hour never happens. I do not recommend this to anyone.… Expand

    The biggest problem with these shill reviews is that it destroys the credibility of any authentic reviews. I have Your Shape. It is the worst $70 I have ever spent on a game. The controls don't work, the usability is terrible, and the music and talent is annoying. Do yourself a favor and get EA Sports Active.

    As interesting as it initially appeared as a concept, this game is remedial for anyone who exercises regularly, and boring. Did not keep my interest. I feel horrible about my disappointment, as my boyfriend shelled out about $70-$80 for it as a Christmas gift to me. Don't waste your money on this. It's not what it's cracked up to be, unfortunately.

    Not good! This is way too expensive for what you get...a low quality camera that doesn't seem to work the way they say it does in the commercials. And I bought it because it says it will tell you HOW to correct your form. That does not happen. Were is the form correcting outline they show in the commercial? Oh, it doesn't exist. False advertising anyone? I also agree that there Not good! This is way too expensive for what you get...a low quality camera that doesn't seem to work the way they say it does in the commercials.

    I am sooo disappointed in this game. Jenny McCarthy is on crack the whole time. I can't keep up with her, even when it "shows" me how to do the moves. I wish I read all the Real Reviews before buying it. The camera is delayed, therefore making it totally useless. I'm returning it on my next day off! Wii fit is so much better. I'll be sticking to that. What an utter I am sooo disappointed in this game. Jenny McCarthy is on crack the whole time. I can't keep up with her, even when it "shows" me how to do the moves.

    Horrible, horrible game and waste of money. But Ubisoft's PR firm is working overtime, I see. All of these glowing reviews is from a shill; you can believe me now or after you've shelled out $80.

    I agree with Chas L, these user comments are obviously fake. Who would write these kinds of things? They're clearly from a PR firm. Don't buy this Your Shape junk. Get EA Sports Active, a game that has actually been received well by the game-reviewing media.

    I agree totally with Regular Joe and Chas L - this game is not good at all! It is repetitive and boring, so after only 30 minutes I never wanted to use it again. I would definitely not recommend it as it is a waste of money!

    I bought this hoping it was be of help with my form. The camera doesn't capture your exact movement, and is VERY delayed. The actual excersizes are good for only a warm up or cardio. There are no actual "excersizes" The only thing worth anything on this game is the yoga section, and even that is very repetitive. Dont buy it...you'll get more out of it if you get up and take a walk!

    Your Shape is more of a straight-up workout tool that you can use in unisons with a personal trainer, or going to the gym.

    Your Shape featuring Jenny McCarthy is a decent title, but it's in dire need of a shot in the arm. [Jan 2010, p.87]

    The included camera is a great idea, but Your Shape is loaded with lame workouts that probably won't get you off the couch.
