Level 3
I don't know the name of the monstrous ship, but Level 3 of R-Type is nothing but you fighting it. It's one of those gaming moments from the past that I remember fondly...Battling my way through the level only to realize that the entire level was just a gigantic, side-scrolling boss fight."
