Single Gamers Put a Ring on It — Beyonce Wants to Make You a Rhythm-Dance-Fitness Title

October 7, 2009

Hang out with game people long enough and pretty soon you want to make one yourself. Looks like R&B diva and Nintendo DS super-spokeswoman Beyonce Knowles is the latest victim of this interactive Stockholm Syndrome. After spending quality time with her Wii Fit, the former Destiny's Child star says she wants to make her own performance game.

Her concept's actually a really good one. Basically, she wants to make a rhythm game that's based on dance instead of guitars. But she's not just pitching a DDR clone. She wants to make a Guitar Hero-style dance title that doubles as a fitness game. The idea being, if you can match her "energetic dance routines" — cf. "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" — you're all but assured to lose some weight in the process:

"I`d like to get involved in video games, since I really love Wii Fit. I think it would be a great idea to incorporate choreography, because, for me, my workout is way more fun when it involves dancing, as opposed to running on a boring treadmill..So I would love to do some kind of fitness game but incorporate dance and performance into it. I think a lot of women would enjoy that."

And a lot of men would enjoy watching women enjoy that, too.
