Kinect PlayFit has launched recently as a free download on Xbox LIVE  for US users and is expected to become available for players outside the US later this week. 

Not exactly a motion control minigame scheme like Wii Fit, Kinect PlayFit offers all sorts of new-fangled features for the active gamer, essentially comprising a fitness dashboard which aggregates collective burned calories from various Kinect titles including Dance Central 2 and even Kinect Star Wars. 

Kinect PlayFit also allows users to see their progress via a leaderboard and compare themselves to other users from across the globe. If that wasn't enough exercise gamification for you, Kinect PlayFit also offers Achievements, Gamerscore points and Avatar Awards as rewards for calories burned. 

The dashboard also offers something called "activity challenges" and is integrated with the Xbox LIVE community so that you can keep motivated socially.
