Which games have the hardest first level?

[kai123]

Which game do you think has the hardest first level? I am only talking about the very first level. Games that let you select which level to starts on as in the Megaman games do not count.

Viewtiful Joe- Bruce the Shark's stage...I hated that level..and I hate that damn boss

[downfall]

Again I say:

Dragon's Lair - NES

It took me forever just to get past the first screen, much less anything else.

[ScottK]

I remember having problems in the beginning of Illusion of Gaia- SNES. I think it was the first level boss that was the hardest part of the game, but then again it's been 10 yrs or so since I last played it.

[Barbarianoutkast85]

When I first played Illusion of Gaia like 8 year ago I remember having a hard time with the first boss. Back then apparently I didnt belive in the Herbs or something I dont know. But I can beat the game now no problem

[SoulBlazer]

I thought Gradius V had a damn hard Level 1. Then I go to 2. x_x

[autobotracing]

level one of Mystery of comvoy for the famicom was a pain in my ass.

I think thats the ONLY Transformers cart game ever.

[Balloon Fight]

Almost every Gradius game (I still haven't played III), and Space Ace/Dragon's Lair (SNES/NES). Man did space Ace piss me off. Seeing that puny dexter get zapped by the laser 5908349068 times in a row is irritating.

[gwaine]

Target Earth for the Genesis...though I heard the sequel on the Saturn is even harder.

[ddockery]

Kid Icarus... It took me forever to pass the first area, but after that the game bot much better. It was those damn platforms you could fall through... that kind of crap kills me every time.

[TheSmirk]

level one of Mystery of comvoy for the famicom was a pain in my ass.

I think thats the ONLY Transformers cart game ever.

The Transformers famicom game? Where you have mountains in the background and you are optimus prime? Starscream and the gang bomb you? That game sucks its so hard, you die within 3 seconds if you are not VERY,VERY careful

So the actual name is mystery of convoy?

[Blackjax]

This is no contest

SINISTAR

I only killed my first Sinistar a few years ago. In the middle of laughing and celebrating Sinistar finally going down

"huh? what? LEVEL 2?!?!?!? NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"

[Querjek]

I tried to play Out of This World (SNES) and could not figure out what the hell was going on. Does that count?

[Raccoon Lad]

Driver, which forces you to become highly skilled at playing the game before you actually get to go out and play it.

[NESaholic]

I had a big problem with the first level of Ghosts and Goblins for the Nes, the first level boss used to kill me over and over again.After giving it some time it's not that all to hard anymore.

[Crush Crawfish]

Viewtiful Joe- Bruce the Shark's stage...I hated that level..and I hate that damn boss

That's level 3, not level one.

anyway, the 1st level of Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts must've taken me at least 40 tries before I got it.

[imanerd0011]

I've always thought that the first level of Double Dragon 3 is rediciously hard.

[slip81]

Driver, which forces you to become highly skilled at playing the game before you actually get to go out and play it.

I can vouch for that. That game pissed me off with it's difficulty so back to EB it went.

I also have trouble with Super R-Type and Strikers 1945. I just suck at shooters, but I love them, isn't it ironic?

Oh and Pac-Man and Space Invaders

[SkiDragon]

The Arcade version of Gradius 3 is much harder than Gradius V. First level at least, because I couldn't get much father on Gradius 3.

I didnt say it was level one...I just called it "Bruce the Shark's Stage"
