Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really
really really wanna zigazig ha.

Well if what you really wanted a Move fitness game with former Spice Girl Mel B you're in luck as Deep Silver has announced Get Fit With Mel B, a game (natch) that will allow you to work out with the former Spice Girl.   The game will miss the Move launch of the Move by a few weeks (it won't appear on shelves until September 28th) but still close enough to get some of that launch contact buzz.

Of course the hard part of playing the game will be trying to get the song "Wannabe" out of your head, something that's already happened to me as I write this post...

DEEP SILVER ANNOUNCES GET FIT WITH MEL B AS A LAUNCH TITLE EXCLUSIVELY FOR PLAYSTATION®MOVE IN NORTH AMERICA



LARKSPUR, CA— September 9, 2010 – Deep Silver, the games label of Koch Media GmbH, today announced they will be publishing Get Fit with Mel B, an innovative fitness program which will exclusively utilize the groundbreaking PlayStation®Move platform for the PlayStation®3 (PS3™) system in North America. Get Fit with Mel B will be released on September 28th, 2010, in conjunction with the launch of PlayStation Move. Get Fit with Mel B allows participants to work out on-screen alongside Spice Girl and entertainment superstar Mel B. Program users will use PlayStation Move’s advanced motion control technology and Mel B’s expertise and passion for health to reach their individual fitness and nutrition goals.



“With her fantastic performance as a finalist in Dancing With the Stars, her role as the host of Oxygen’s Dance Your A** Off and her work for the Susan G. Komen Foundation’s “Pose for the Cure” breast cancer campaign, Mel B’s dedication to health and fitness makes her the perfect choice to inspire users of this program to improve their overall well being,” said Deep Silver Chief Operating Officer Geoff Mulligan. “This program, using brand new PlayStation Move technology, will allow participants to be inspired and motivated by Mel B as their personal trainer every day, all for much less than the price of a gym membership.”



Based on user-set goals and personal preferences, Mel B will design a fitness program delivering highly individualized health solutions. Whether users are looking to lose pounds for the beach, build muscle and endurance for sports or just find a way to relax, Mel B will create daily workouts and meal plans to deliver real results. Furthermore, she will continuously monitor user performance and give encouragement and feedback, spurring users on to achieve their dreams. For those taking their first steps into the fitness arena, Get Fit with Mel B includes a comprehensive practice mode in which users can participate in tutorials and demonstrations. For those interested in enhancing their fitness regime, Get Fit with Mel B offers the opportunity to integrate fitness accessories, such as aerobic steps, fit balls and resistance bands into the workout for a greater challenge. What’s more, once each workout is done, users can use the program’s facebook integration to share their workout progress and results with their friends.



“We’re thrilled that Get Fit with Mel B is launching exclusively alongside PlayStation Move as the very first fitness title for the platform,” said Rob Dyer, Senior Vice President of Publisher Relations at Sony Computer Entertainment of America. “PlayStation Move is more than just an innovative games platform; it allows people to experience interactivity at a new level across a whole range of activities. Fitness is just one arena where PlayStation Move excels and Get Fit with Mel B pushes the boundaries of what a home fitness program can help people achieve.”



Get Fit with Mel B will arrive in retail stores exclusively on the PlayStation Move platform for PS3 on September 28, 2010. It has a suggested retail price of $49.99. For more information on PlayStation Move, visit www.playstation.com.
