I was looking at Sonic 1 and once again remembered how amazing Green Hill looks:
The overall visual design, the color choices, the pattern, the parallax scrolling, the weird plants with their silly animations, everything. I think it's the most iconic looking introduction to a video game. And despite later Sonic games having better graphics, i think this particular level is still the best looking in the series. Later levels don't look that good and it's almost as if the developers spent most of the time making sure the game will grab your attention from the first moment.
Even the 3D/modern versions look great:
And concept art ot it always looks good:
Post other games that have the best looking or most iconic introduction levels you can think of.
