This is a video showing my personal best score on the insanely hard DoDonPachi.
Stage 1-4 is very difficult, and you really know where you have to be before the enemies appear, especially the large tanks (first one at 0:46) as they are stong and fire hard to dodge patterns.
The whole stage can be fully chained in one combo, but there are many places where you have to stall the combo, and with those large tanks, it isn't easy at all!
As I show, the first pattern the boss uses is easily avoidable, though the later patterns are much harder.
It is possible to get this boss stuck on the sides of the screen, if you beat the first form of it, while the boss is around half out of the side of the screen. If you can make this happen, the boss is too simple.

Actually, when you're against these large tanks, you can stand somewhere you won't get hit by them.
Stand right in front of them and move a little bit to the side, and if it works, then the tank's turret will shoot right in front if it and won't kill you.
It's useful as when other shots appear, you can move upwards or downwards (ie "back" or "forward" your ship), and can dodge pretty much everything in the stage.

Yeah, I do know of the little gaps from those big tanks, hadn't really thought of going up and down in those gaps, I'm sure it would help a lot too.
