Reception

[edit]

Move Fitness received "mixed or average" reviews according to the review aggregator website Metacritic.[5][4]

Impulse Gamer (70), PSFocus (70), Eurogamer Portugal (70), Level7.nu (40), Vandal (59)

Playstation Official Magazine UK - There's a huge selection of activities. [Christmas 2011, p.111]

Playstation Official Magazine Australia - When you take into account the bargain basement price and what benefits you'll reap from it (assuming regular use), Move Fitness could be one of the wisest game purchases you ever make. [January 2012, p.81]

Official PlayStation Magazine Benelux - The exercises offer a lot of variety, but sometimes they are too alike. Jumping away from a ball or catching it for example may seem different, but boils down to the same thing. The exercises are also very intense for people who aren't used to working out regularly. [December 2011, p.87]

Eurogamer - I really, really hope the developer gets a second crack at Move Fitness, as the core concept clearly works and there are some screamingly obvious things that, if added, would make the game a much better, potentially excellent, fitness game. But as it stands, what should be Mr. Motivator is very much Mr. Average.

some news networks such as XGN described the game as similar to but worse than Wii Fit and Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012. - Sony delivers a very bad Move-game and that loses the fight with Wii Fit and Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012. Move Fitness doesn't feel like a real fitness game and never really stimulates you to keep on going.

GamingXP = Move Fitness does what it claims to do: it makes you sweat and pushes you to your limits. Being able to repeat single workouts or try out a whole new program is fun and definitely helps you get in shape. Its biggest downside is the integration of ball games as they're not as accurate as they need to be. For work-out enthusiasts and fitness wannabes this title is worth a look. [6]
