I never had this one as a kid and I recently decided to give it a try and I keep dying all the time. I've tried approaching the enemy slowly I've tried flying passes quickly as possible and hammering them with rockets I've tried sneaking around the level and trying to memorize where stuff is and yet despite all that I still can't get past the first level is there any secret to playing this game that I am missing? Are the sequels any easier should I try them?
