Hi. Yeah I beat dark destroyer too *grins*. I like that game a lot. I own a copy of troopinum too. I've beat troop a few times also but dark destroyer was actually a whole lot easier and more laid back *lol*. If I were going to talk about which game was hard I'd say it was troopinum. That's a good thing really. On the one hand I've got troopinum, lots of different features in it, challenging to beat, cheats, good voice, fast action, and the fact that you can hold down the arrow keys to scroll like someone mentioned. On the other hand there's Dark Destroyer, free, a bit easier to play, different voices, etc. I like it that way, get tired of one and play the other for a while.
