This video features 2 of the hardest levels in the game, and both of them, funnily enough, are Harbour levels. Aye ey ey, these levels are utterly hateful.
In truth, the first one wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the last jump AT THE END OF THE LEVEL. Gah.

Remember folks, this level has been BURNED into my mind, so I know what's coming up. I will admit, I specifically practiced the jump before recording, (I.. had a old savestate there for some reason. Wonder why. XD) but the rest is just pure memory. The Harbour level, along with the last stage, were one of the three "well and truly stuck now" points from my childhood, the first one being the Batman/Spiderman boss. (Yes, really.) You know, those points in games where you put down the controller for months at a time, because you rage quit because of one well and truly stupid level. Well, the Harbour level is THAT point. The final stage is.. different, but the Harbour? I hope the guy who designed it knows how much hell it put me through.

The Battleship stage isn't quite as bad but is difficult due to the enemies instead, (they can shoot you from off screen now.), and yet another infamous boss battle is fought.

The video doesn't end after the defeat of a Zilla that goes by the name of God, as due to the length of the last area, the first portion of Stage 8 is also included in this video.
Since I opted to record the stage again (why not, there wasn't a problem with the first video aside from the fact I died...) the death in this playthrough was cut out. This, and one other.. ahem, outtake are included at the end. And yes, that last one is rather silly.

I realise I forgot the alternate version of Godzilla from later releases. If I feel like putting myself through the harbour level again, I might record it later.
