Is this the greatest level in gaming?

Is this peak game design?

Just the way the stage starts off, with the change in perspective, the music kicks in and Falco says, "Here they come!!"

I started humming the music a second ago and it dawned on me how amazing this level is. Really makes you feel like a badass.

 
Solid choice. The equivalent level in Starfox 64 is great too. My pick would be level 1-1 in Super Mario brothers. It works perfectly to teach you how to play with no tutorial of any kind.

Star wars jedi knight 2 - the moment i got my lightsaber, just wow.
Its amazing for that time.
 
I unironically love Deadly Shadows and I consider it the second best game in the series right behind The Metal Age.

Level 1 of doom might be up there
I'd say the same about Doom II and E1M1. Hell, I'd bet more people have played Doom II to be honest. I don't think I've met anyone that's played D2 that doesn't know just about every secret on that specific level.
