Three Ways To Stay Active While Playing Video Games
Fitness is an essential part of your daily life –– it’s recommended you spend 150 minutes a week sweating it out. How do you get your exercise in? Perhaps you go for a run or take dance classes. If you’re like many Americans, you may struggle to get your optimal amount of exercise.
Did you know you can stay active with video games? Gaming may seem like a way to sit back and relax, but you can burn hundreds of calories in front of a console.
1. Wii Fit
Wii Fit was introduced a decade ago, and it’s still one of the most popular video games on the market. Players can choose from more than 40 activities, and there are unique options like snowboarding, yoga, and tennis. Some of the high-intensity activities like island running burn 165 calories per 30-minute session.
2. LaserTag
While GameTruck Los Angeles specializes in video game parties, we also offer laser tag parties for up to 12 people. Your party guests will get to play laser tag wherever you please––whether it’s a park, playground or backyard. LaserTag will keep you entertained and engaged, and you’ll burn calories while playing.
3. Just Dance
You don’t need to be a dance expert to have fun playing this game. All that’s required is a willingness to try new dance moves and groove to your favorite songs. Just Dance can be played with your friends or alone, and you’re tasked with mimicking the dance moves you see on-screen.

Spooky Games To Play All Month Long
The countdown is on: It’s almost Halloween. How will you celebrate the spookiest day of the year? Perhaps you’ll eat too much candy after trick-or-treating, or maybe you’re already working on a creative costume. If you’re looking to host an awesome Halloween event, you may have already invited GameTruck to your party.
However you’re choosing to spend the day of Halloween, you have all of October to get in the mood. Playing some spooky video games will have you ready for Oct. 31, and the best part is that you have the option to play these at any time.
Injustice: Gods Among Us
Available on Android, iOS, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Wii U, Xbox 360
DC Comics fans, listen up: This game is the perfect way to prepare for Halloween. What could be spookier than a game that features the Joker and Sinestro? Bonus: Superman does something unspeakable at the start of the game after being tricked by the Joker and seeks retribution afterward. You’ll have to play to find out what happens next, but trust us – it’s good.
Call of Duty: Ghosts
Available on Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, Xbox 360, Xbox One
We’ll admit the name’s a bit misleading here. The ghosts in Call of Duty: Ghosts aren’t the Casper kind. Instead, the Ghosts are a military special operations unit that fights against the Federation of the Americas, a group trying to destroy both North and South America. You’ll even get to unlock an outer space level.
Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure
Available on Microsoft Windows, Nintendo 3DS, Mac OS X, PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360
This may not fit the traditional definition of spooky, but if you’re looking for a game suitable for children that will get their hearts racing, we’ve got a great one to try out. Players are tasked with defeating enemies as they’re chased by the bad guys.
