Indeed, it appears that Mr. Driller Online is coming next week, and I think it should be coming out in the West as well. |

Incidentily, Mr. Driller Online is not on Partnernet at all - neither is anything Capcom are making. I wish I could preview them :( |

I can now confirm with a very high amount of certainty that Mr. Driller Online is one of the games for release next week and 100% confirm that it is coming to the west.

Haven't played online yet but offline is ok.
Sadly suffers from 360 controller syndrome like every other game out there, but you can get by, just. Seems to play mostly like the original arcade game, so drops are not as forgiving as the later games - i.e. you'll get crushed when you might think you would otherwise slide out of the way. Along the way you pick up treasure chests containing items - these are the items typically found in the quest modes, like add 5% to max air, fill your air up, barrier, fast digging, etc. but you can only carry one at a time and it gets overwritten when you find a new chest. Thanks to the items, it's not going to be totally impossible to get the high depths. I just got 2400m, which I would struggle with in the regular mode before. Quest mode is also semi-interesting, though usually the stress of the quest tends to distract you from playing properly, so it's a bit harder than regular mode. Wish they'd left in the Japanese samples for picking up air and when the game is over. It doesn't sound right without them, but I guess the localised versions never had them? 951050 is my high score so far... 39th on the table :/ |

OK, the online part...
If there is lag, the blocks don't disappear, no matter how much you dig. How the fuck did this past testing? |

And yet the reason for poor sales from Namco will be because no one cares about Mr Driller, not because of the true reasons: the net code is F'ed or single player has bugs.
Don't they play test this shit before they send it out? If a company like Namco can't get it right all hope is lost. :( |
