I know another hard first level: Onett from Earthbound. Despite it being the first level you can explore and fight in, it is SO brutal for a bunch of reasons. One, Ness is completely solo meaning he will always be fighting by himself against enemies that will outnumber him. Two, Ness is slow as hell in battle so he will most likely act after the enemy giving them a chance to whail on him. And 3, healing items are pretty darn scarce considering you earn money by fighting enemies (I know the Punks there often drop Hamburgers but you have to survive fighting them first and some of them hit HARD). This actually caused me to take a break from the game for awhile due to just me getting killed off all of the time before I even made it to the first boss.

[@MarioFanXXL]

Yikes. Sounds hard.

I hope to see Top 10 Easy First Levels in Hard Video Games. One example: Chapter 1 Captain Falcon's Training - F-Zero GX. As if the Grand Prix hard enough, the story mode gives a true meaning to brutal. The only exception is the first level, where you simply have to race around a simple loop 3 times and collect 25 capsules within 80 seconds. No sharp turns, no competition, no obstacles on the track. Enjoy the warm up for what lies ahead.

Contrary to popular belief, that first stage of Driver is not a tutorial. It's part of the story where Tanner has to impress his boss to see if he's fit for the task. That said, I'm happy it was included here. Driver needs more love and attention.

Top3 (In my opinion): 1. Parking Garage Tutorials 2. The Graveyard 3. It's a Jungle out there Many of the side scrolling games would be very hard because you won't be able to anticipate what's next and their first levels would be so hard to beat, however, it is the game Driver that takes the top spot because not only it so difficult to complete in a minimum amount of time, but you wouldn't be able to understand some of the names of the tutorials, especially Slalom, who uses that word, that's just stupid! It'd be best to never play Driver! It's a horrible game!

The golden armor on g&g on snes doesn't increase your hits by 3,the special shield if you point it out to a projectile makes you think you have three hits!

Now customers are trying to cancel their pre-ordered games, and Limited Run Games is refusing to refund the customers. There is about to be a MASSIVE lawsuit from these customers. The company is already failing because 90% of games last year was ordered digitally. This lawsuit and possibly the lawsuit from the manager they fired, is going to ANNIHILATE THEM INTO OBLIVION.

You picked the wrong installment for #3. Hard as the whole series is, Ghouls 'n Ghosts (the non-Super one) is uniquely infuriating. In the first half of Stage 1, you have to contend with Skeleton Murderers, ravenous vultures and anachronistic guillotines (they were invented in 1792), but in the second half, you have to contend with Sickle Weasels in high wind and killer tree roots that pop out at random, barely mitigated by the fact that you can attack in four directions. Also, that thing about the Golden Armor? It's actually the Moon Shield that can withstand a single projectile, three for the Sun Shield; the armor itself still comes off after one hit. Finally, you totally subbed Moscow from Konami's Mission: Impossible.
