I'm just wondering if anybody knows how accurate the calorie burning readings are in Max 2. The game says that after about 1000 cals burned, i've done the equivalent of jogging ten miles, which is an overstatement if you ask me.

I don't think they are very accurate...how accurate can they be? They're just counting the calories you burn by stepping on the pad based on your weight entry.

Not accurate at all. There are so many factors that go into calorie burn - your height, weight, gender, muscle to fat ratio, metabolism, genetics, body temperature, etc.

There a bunch of good threads on this that you might want to check out.
