Tue, Feb 10th, 2009 |
In theory, Darts sounds like a great game for the iPhone. But as slick as the iPhone's touch screen and accelerometer are, you're not holding a Nintendo Wii Remote in your hand. So it's not too likely that the developers of the game would have you pseudo-tossing the device during gameplay.
Indeed, they don't. To simulate tossing your dart, the developers of Darts decided you should -- wait for it -- flick your finger. Upwards.
