I can't seem to win in the darts game.  Every time I about to win the games says I need doubles or something.  I freaking lose all the time.    Any advice is definitely welcome.

you need to finish on the double ring(outside ring)

for example:
you knock your score down to 3.  to win, you need to hit a single 1 and a double 1

ETA: now someone fill me in on how to pick up hookers

i cant find any.  where do they hang out?  is there a certain time of day that they come out?  what do they look like?

Usually you have to drive around and find women walking the street. Havnt noticed a particular area they hang out in. You pull up to them and honk your horn twice. They will come up and offer. Then you have to drive them to a dark area, like an alley and they will ask what you want.

Time seems to fly by too quickly for some of the missions.  I was trying to deliver a package for Little Jacob it was 12:19am when I was driving and before you know it was 1:45 am and I didn't deliver the package.

You've never played 301 huh?


The outer ring is worth double the number.

Take your score and divide by 2 and hit the small outer box.

Oh, and you should be able to win with just 7darts.

Yup. Easiest way for me:

1. Triple 20
2. Triple 20
3. Triple 20
4. Triple 20
5. Bullseye 50
6. 1
7. Double 5

Yup, for the moment. All GTAs eventually make it to the computer though, so I'm sure this one will as well. As of yet there is no official word, however.

you need to have a sedan of some kind (some of the sports cars work as well) You'll recognize them by their clothes. They dress like hookers. Pull up to them and hit your horn. One will get in. take them to a secluded spot and you can cycle through the 3 services offered ($20 for hand job, $50 for BJ, $70 for sex) you do the deed and hooker gets out. Now get out of your car and kill said hooker and take your money back

Sorry I don't even play darts in real life.  

ETA:  I am full of fail I lose in pool and bowling too.  

Wow I just used post 1776 on a thread about GTA IV.

Probably should have listened when the game went over the initial dart instructions, eh?

Bowling is hit or miss. I hate bowling with Brucie cause he has this frigging annoying habit of pulling off strikes when he needs them. Best I've done was in the 170's, but my average is I think 112.

Pool...that table sucks. Corner pockets are WAY too small, way too easy to miss, and the side pockets have a wierd "bounce effect" to them. However I love just cruising down to the pool club and shooting with the random guys there. They have some pretty funny comments when they miss.

It takes a bit of practice to get it down, but once you learn the ropes it is easier. Until Packie decides to go on a five-ball bender and leave you with either a whole heap of nothing or a shot that would force you to sink the eight ball.

+1

Bowling is, for me, mostly luck of the draw.

Pool's not THAT bad, though, it's just a matter of getting the right spin on the balls and whatnot. Once you have that down you can sink impossible shots without TOO much difficulty. I will note there seems to be a bug with the pool physics in the 360 version though (I had both versions for a while to compare them, but the rampant pop-in and bugginess made me sell the 360 version). Almost every game of pool, once or twice a ball will hit the rail and... stick to it, even if it was going super fast and should've bounced all the way back.
