Treadmill Joystick
The Gamerunner is another attempt to blend exercise and gaming. While I love the idea, I think it's going to suffer from the same problem that all of the other pieces of gaming exercise equipment have suffered: Its size. No one wants to have a 5-foot by 3-foot joystick lying around in the den. And with the advent of more family friendly consoles, like the 360, that feeling is only going to grow. A truly successful device will have to be both effective and aesthetically pleasing.
The Gamerunner is a person-powered treadmill that features 17 buttons and a handlebar that can be turned for looking. Instructions include how to set it up for the PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360 and PS3.
