This Wednesday: Mr. Driller coming to XBLA

We have to hand it to Mr. Driller. Though the decision to leave dentistry school and forsake the family practice probably mystified his loved ones at the the time, it appears to be paying off. Sure, there were some dark times (it's been four years since the last game in the series) but Dr. Driller's boy is finally making it big with a release this week on Xbox Live Arcade.
For 800 points ($10), you'll get the single-player campaign as well as the online multiplayer support for up to four players. It'll take a lot of downloads to equal the $100 per appointment he could have been pulling down, but he had to find his own corner of the sky. And for that, Mister Driller, we salute you.

Sweet! Mr. Driller is a great game! Although This will be the third time I buy it... (Dreamcast and NDS)

I may be in error here, but if memory serves me correctly this game was almost something of a button masher. I dug it, but when I was on the hunt for a decent puzzle game for DS I ended up selling it and moving on.

Yeah, it was a button masher if your goal was to fail miserably. Clearing Easy mode doesn't mean you've mastered the game.

But won't the colours scare away the 360 fans. I heard it was their kryptonite.

Remember: Next-gen is brown.

"Viva Pinata sais Hi =)"
That was a perfect example!
360 owners didn't care for that too much.

Hasn't Viva Pinata slowly sold 1 million units? I could be really wrong here anyone want to contest this?

button mash too much and you will run into hazardous crates that make you lose too much air...button mash too slowly and you will faint from lack of oxygen bubbles...

You maroons. Mr. Driller is Dig Dug's kid. The family business would have been digging into the ground to inflate dragons and grab fruit.
(I am ashamed for knowing this)

Don't worry, you're not the biggest dork here.
"Dig Dug"'s name is actually Taizo Hori.

Sooooooooo bought.
*yoink*

Lots of mixed messages here guys. What's the final verdict. Buy it now? Buy it when it's cheaper? or Don't Bother?
Is the multiplayer mode really worth it or is it a tack on?
matsumoto @ Apr 1st 2008 6:21AM
definitely buy now. prices of online games won't drop...
I'd buy it myself, but still don't own an 360. I'd love to compete with others because I was the world's 9th in the online ranking (GBA, about 5000 m depth).
but the ROD problem kills me.
