We wanted to like Double D Dodgeball more because of the subject matter, but it simply doesn’t deliver the kind of experience we were hoping for. With better controls, the whole “playing dodgeball in space” thing could have worked. But we found ourselves worrying too much about being a sitting duck on the court to have time to enjoy the special, arcade-y features of Double D Dodgeball.
I imagine that someone could find something to like in Double D Dodgeball if they really tried, and I'll admit that the title does play pretty much as promised. However, the lack of a solid single-player experience, coupled with the complete lack of online players, makes the title not worth checking out before the download even begins.
Double D Dodgeball should be skipped. Certain gimmicks like skill shots and a variety of arenas do not add enough to warrant a purchase.
The game is lifeless, dull and has no real goals. You can dodge your way to victory by dodging this one.
As with a few other XBLA titles I could mention, when you can't even find another single player on LIVE to pit your skills against, you know there’s some serious suckage going on.
I have played some bad games in the past but this has beaten them all, I cant recommend this to anybody, If the lag issue has been resolved this could get a 3 but the overall package is very poor and not worth any of your money.

Summary [Xbox Live Arcade] Relive the good old days of playgrounds and recess. Double D Dodgeball recreates the classic childhood sport in a new, futuristic setting with a retro arcade feel. With frenetic eight person multiplayer action, grab seven of your friends and go four-on-four via Xbox Live to see which team has the ultimate bragging rig...
