Word on the street is that a few of the big chain stores are selling Drill Dozer for a discounted price. Target has if for $15, Bestbuy for $10, and Circuit City for $9. Great GBA game and worth the full price, so swoop this one up if you haven’t already. How much did you […]

I saw this deal a few weeks ago and I looked for it at every Circuit city I could find.. but no luck. Thankfully, Best Buy had it for $10 so I got it. I love it so far, it has some cool puzzles and unique bosses. I hope they do a DS sequel sometime later.. it would rule!
It's a fun game that makes diverse and creative use of a novel gameplay mechanic. At least until the boss that you have to defeat without the ability to drill, which the entire game to that point was based on. I stopped playing when I got to that boss.
I probably will be crucified and my wounds rubbed with salt for saying this, but Drill Dozer is the best 2D platformer I've ever played… Even better than the New Mario Bros. in DS!
I JUST bought this game. I think everyone who is going to purchase this game at the new price should thank me for finally buying it. I am sure the price drop occured because the universe was waiting for me to break down and buy the bugger at full price. ;)It was worth it anyway; this game is incredibly awesome. It is like the old megaman games with a sprinkle of dig-dug and a heaping dose of fun originality.
Dang! I just bought it last month at full price. No real regrets tho – this has all but elimated the suck from my commute since I bought it. I actually had to steal my SP back from my partner so that I could play it (have a DS – dislike playing GBA games on it).Dunno if anybody checks out ToastyFrog's Metroidvania Chronicles at toastyfrog.1up.com, but I hope he makes mention of this one. Drill Dozer takes the best bits from Metroid, Castlevania, and MegaMan (the character and enemy design outdoes anything Capcom's ever done in 2D in the past 10 years). It's definitely better than New SMB (which I was hoping would bring Mario into the 2D Metroidvania-style platforming goodness).Hope there's a sequel, DS or GBA.
is this in store price or online price?… just wondering
>> is this in store price or online price?… just wonderingshould be both.
I bought this game when it was still new for my Micro…and finished it. For me it wasn't a bad game, but I felt the gameplay, though solid, lacked something. I also would have preferred if they included a run, cause the whole game you were just walking and drilling…
I just called my bestbuy and they said it was 30 or something- fullprice. anyway i can get them to give me it for 10?
I got it, I asked the guy to scan it and it came up as $10 ^_^I'll play it later.
I haven't finished Drill Dozer yet, (I'm on area 3-2) but it is definately one of the best platformers I have ever played.$10 is almost a giveaway. People need to stop buying Ice Age 2, Cars, and Yu-Gi-Oh games and do themselves a favor by picking up some of the good games.The reason America doesn't get a lot of the good games (Custom Robo and Mother for example) is because we buy ICE AGE 2. >:(
