I've put a lot of hours into the Defense Zone games and wish they would make more :(

I highly recommend Defense Zone 3 if you are looking for a challenge. The game is insanely difficulty, even on 'Easy', Which can be frustrating, but also very satisfying after you beat a level. The last two level are especially difficult. To the point where most players give up. Out of the 150 hours it took me to complete the game, I probably spent half of the hours on the last 2 levels. I quit several times, but I...
The game is O.K. Nothing to go crazy about. There are alot better. Nothing like the weapons or scoring are explained well. There are still bugs in the game. Also, and this is the killer. The missions are wayyyy toooo longgg!! 1 hour plus for a mission? This is not something you can just pop in for 20 min and play. So, that being said. 5 out of 10.
