Cyberbike announced, comes with an exercise bike

Posted 13th of October, 2009 at 03:39 pm by Infernal Monkey Infernal Monkey is online now


If you thought those Guitar Hero and Rock Band bundles took up a lot of space in stores, just wait until Bigben's Cyberbike hits! Proudly announced today as 'the very first video game that comes with an exercise bike', the fitness game features a full-blown story mode about cleaning up the planet. Pump those crazy legs to clear the land, sea and sky of pollution with a variety of vehicles. As you progress, new equipment and accessories are unlocked to customise your in-game cyberbike thing.

There's also a regular fitness mode and four player multiplayer (taking turns). The exercise bike has an adjustable saddle and handlebars so everyone can pass out with excitement. The box also claims it's compatible with Mario Kart Wii. Bigben plans to launch Cyberbike later this year in PAL regions, no word on pricing.






THAT FACE!

My mind, the boggles do nothing!

EDIT: DandelionMailman, Nintendo didn't make this game.

This really isn't a new concept. Didn't someone hook WoW up to a bike? Yeah I dunno.

Sounds pretty interesting. The whole fitness thing has proven to be pretty big with the Wii so I suppose if this is done correctly it could really take off.

Take that, outside! Sigh, I wonder how big those bikes are...? These bundles take up too much floor space in my shop :(

Wait - compatible with Mario Kart? ....... Sigh, again.

Ah... no. The bike isn't likely to last longer than the game.

For the price of this thing I imagine you could get a used road or mountain pushbike.
And with one of those you could actually go outside and ride around and see nice sights and feel the thrill of riding down nice hills.

As someone who loves riding, and recently used it to get more fit than I was previously.. this game seems sort of pointless and silly.

Yea, but danon, when can you ride a bike but be flying a helicopter? never. This is clearly the better option.

Comes with a free box of nintendos dignity since there just giving it away these days, also a trolley to carry the heavy bastard.

Once your done with the game and bored of it, it gathers dust and once one spec of dust hits it, it goes into alarm mode and starts firing warning beams that telling you that you have to play or it shall melt the very skin of off your bones.

That one's so obvious I don't need to bother - of course I turn my bike into a submarine.
