We’d almost think Oxygen Games had drawn the short straw when we saw they were tucked away right at the back, however, it was right next to the bar… And probably quite appropriately too seeing as they were showcasing PDC Darts. They had 3 normal pods set up for each different version and then a replica darts area for the Wii.
Me and Mademan decided to have a game on the Wii version and the controls were a bit fiddly to say the least. First you had to hold the Wii-mote on its side and position your arm as if you were going to throw a dart. Fair enough. Then you had to aim your on-screen cursor where you wanted to throw i.e. treble 20. Right. Then you hold A flick your wrist back and throw as if you were throwing a dart (obviously don’t let go of the Wii-mote) and let go of A at the very last second. We made a bit of a fool of ourselves in front of the booth babes a couple of times but once we got used to it, it was fine. There were, however, quite a lot of people who were struggling with the control mechanism.
The presentation of the game though is top notch with everything looking near identical to television coverage of the game.
The game may not have been but the girls were hot!!!
