Now There's A Way To Lose Weight by Playing Skyrim

If your guess was "play Skyrim while on a treadmill"—yes, sort of. The device you see in the video above is called the Omni, and it's a virtual reality/treadmill hybrid that allows you to walk and look around naturally in a game.

I find it really impressive. From a "healthy" standpoint beats the shit out of anything motion gaming has ever really accomplished. I mean, think about how many steps you'd take over a full playthrough of Skyrim? Hundreds of thousands maybe?

The freedom to look naturally is huge tho, I've always wanted to see something like that.
