GFB: Arcade Darts PSP Mini Review

GFB: "Arcade Darts is a PSP/PS3 Mini virtual darts game. The problem with this is darts is the one sport where translating it to a system and not involving motion controls just feels not quite genuine. While a professional game of darts may have strategy involved, it goes to waste when you take away the factor of a person's throw (human factor). Arcade Darts can't solve this problem at all; the game is only able to beat you with great shots and it has no way to prevent you from scoring on the mark every single time."

Avoid this game at all costs. Wasted 4 bucks on this garbage.

jonlynch5030d ago

The god thing is that it's only a few Euros. It sucks that it was a pile of sh**, but we've all wasted a lot more on more expensive games that are horrible.

PoSTedUP5030d ago (Edited 5030d ago )

lol aw man i was expecting something huge out of this game, after all, it IS a darts game, and after all, it IS a mini game, and after all, it IS a whopping 3 bucks... what a disappointed /s, flop of the year yall, avoid at all costs.

lol sori i couldnt resist, take no offence. i am just an Ahole sometimes. if you like darts (a lot) then invest in a dart board. throwing a dart at a board is like the easiest thing to do. playing it on a game is worse then watching poker on TV!!

GunShotEddy5030d ago

most of Icon Games suck. They're pretty cheap.

vgn245030d ago

horrible? It's a freaking mini game. They're not supposed to be huge budgeted blockbusters. PSP Minis are small games and super cheap. Get over your 3 or 4 bucks.

kennykramer5030d ago

money is money. No one likes to waste it.

vgchica5030d ago

It's like a whole game of free throw from NBA 2K. You just stop the swinging arrows on two axis.

BattersUp5030d ago

I didn't hear a lot of bad things about it. Actually I had not heard of he game. Guess I know why.

jphelps805030d ago

Darts are pretty popular in Europe. I think Americans think of it as a bar-only.

kennykramer5030d ago (Edited 5030d ago )

Even if a sport is popular, it has to be good in video game form for the "video game" to work. In this case, the game isn't good. I think that's the point.

GAME OF THE YEAR FOR ME AND FOR EVER!

Was going to read it... But it has like 6 pages to click through when they could have obviously fit it all on one... Hate sites like that fishing for hits.

Here is a helpful tip, just read the games tagged to the article, opinion piece, etc.

Edit:

Also of all those games i think Motorstorm is the only I will enjoy. But I've already played it =)

black9114253d ago

Both of you guys get agree's.

lifesanrpg4253d ago

If I enjoy the article I have no problem clicking through pages to support the site.

Sites need money to operate. How do they get money? Ad revenue through page views.

Like I said, if I enjoy the article and want to support the site, I'll do it. Besides, is clicking an arrow really that hard?

MySwordIsHeavenly4253d ago

Good $3 and under at my store (Disc Replay):

Crackdown
Unreal Tournament III
Fight Night Round 3
The Darkness
Halo 3
Sports Champions

Those are just off the top of my head though.

bigcupofSTFU4253d ago
