No more are the days of poor weather outside requiring you to stay inside and watch TV or play board games. The videogame revolution is known as “motion gaming”This is a great way for indoor activity to increase while still spending time with the family. It makes quality family time a real possibility in 2011.

Children can move their arms and dance to win motion gaming. SingStar Dance is the latest example of this genre. It adds dancing to traditional vocal gameplay so that gamers can sing along and learn to groove with their favorite pop stars.

Motion gaming consoles have brought more video games to families’ living rooms. Dancing, Disc Golf, Gladiator Duel, Beach Volleyball, Archery, Table Tennis, Bocce and Beach Volleyball all offer exercise and fun.

The latest generation of motion gaming has seen video game makers up the ante. The new Playstation Move Motion Controller (PS3) features more precise motion control than older controllers. This allows children to aim their tennis balls or shoot arrows much more accurately. Although the controls are easy to learn, new players can pick up a controller to play. However, some challenges might require more technical skills.

Sports Champions for PlayStation Move is one game that takes full advantage the controller’s capabilities. Six sports events allow players to compete against one another: archery and bocce as well as table tennis, gladiator games (beach volleyball), disc golf, and table tennis. It’s fun for all skill levels and ages.
