Sabretooth Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Half Life 2 - the Water Hazard sequence. the whole thing is basically a chase sequence with a Hunter-killer chopper shooting at you in your hovercraft and dropping mines everywhere. the sequence has a lot of great moments in it, and it gets really interesting whenever you get the machine gun attached to your hovercraft. another great sequence in video game history with a nice boss fight at the end when you finally get to take out the chopper. Agreed, that was the best section of Half-Life 2, IMHO. That was video game art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gargoyle King Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 The Tenchu series has pretty good boss fights IMO, like Tenchu 2 with the leader of that Ninja Dragon cult thingy, Lady Kagana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mur'phon Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Prince of persia3:the golem thing you use as a battering ram and the wizier are both beautifull (though not very hard) fights. Freedom force vs the third reich: entropy, drawn out fight that punish power-playing-one-man-armies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk102 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Ah I forgot Tholapsyx, the red dragon in Act 3 of NWN2. She was a tough battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gargoyle King Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Sephiroth in FFVII, the sourceress (aka taking the biscuit in length boss at the very end of the game ) from FFVIII; i enjoyed these bosses. I liked Jecht in FFX aswell, the second form was always quite a pain (for me atleast anyways). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mur'phon Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Freedom Force: mr mecanical, few things can match having your characters sent flying over a bunch of buildings, and then take revenge by throwing cars at him. Icewind dale2: the sorcerer at the bridge, the most epic music ever makes me play this battle again and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I liked Jecht in FFX aswell, the second form was always quite a pain (for me atleast anyways). Though Yu Yevon was quite a letdown. Too easy to beat, even if your Aeons are powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander the Great Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Any of the major champ fights in Fight Night: Round 3 were pretty good. They were nice and challenging, even if they might not be considered bossfights. I liked the bossfights in Fable, even though they were exceedingly easy (Jack of Blades, the Arena scorpion, etc.) But there are mods that can help that out. In Gears of War, the berserker fights were really fun to me. They weren't extremely easy but not impossible, either. They have you on the edge of your seat with your heart pounding and all.

JediAthos Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 I thought Kreia in K2 was a decent fight. It might not have been the hardest, but the floating lightsaber thing was cool How bout the first time you took on Tyson in Punchout? Anyone remember doing that fight for the first time I don't know if you want to count MMO's or not, but WoW has some great dungeon boss fights.

Marius Fett Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy Jak II: Renegade Jak 3 The end bosses in all three of these awsome games were all really good, though my favourite end boss of all time has to be Shang Tsung at the end of the original MK... Finish Him! Flawless Victory! Awsome games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serpentine Cougar Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 No one mentioned any Zelda? I like the bosses is those games because you always have to figure out the method for killing them and it's usually pretty interesting. "Ganon-ball" at the end of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is probably my favorite boss battle of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Monance Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 The axe guy and the sword guy in Price of Persia 3. You have to figure out what to do as both seem invulnerable at first. Its quite challenging, took me more than 5 attempts I think. Lee in Jade Empire. Extremely easy but the music kicked ass! Irenicus in BG2. He's just such a cool villain. Kangaxx in BG2. He's such a tough adversary. Final level in Hl² where you have to chase Breen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy Allen`` Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I had a good think about this and there's a few boss battles I personally think are worthy of mention. Michael Jordan in NBA Street would be the ultimate test, who's better than him? Resident Evil had some good boss battles, how about that knife fight against Krauser? The second Syphon Filter game had a unique boss battle and the endless taunting made it memorable. To be real old school how about the chance to kill the Emperor back in that old Return of the Jedi game? A lot of people say Metal Gear, and I would agree, singling out the Boss as the best (as in The Boss). But perhaps the best one would be Sephiroth. Just the chance to make him pay puts it in the top spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Resident Evil had some good boss battles, how about that knife fight against Krauser? Nah, it's a beautiful cutscene but you don't get to actually fight him. But perhaps the best one would be Sephiroth. Just the chance to make him pay puts it in the top spot. For Final Fantasy bosses, I've never had greater satisfaction than the one I had when fighting Kefka (FFVI). He was a monster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uilleand Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Mass Effect The whole damned ending was so bloody epic, I can't even begin to describe it...but, when it comes to the big boss, you can of course choose to fight him. However....:spoiler: Max your charm or intimidate skills and just convince him to BLOW HIS OWN HEAD OFF...seriously!! I could't frickin' BELIEVE it!! Best boss 'fight' EVAR FTW.

Arcesious Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Halo II Just me with two needlers, a banshee, and tons of ammo vrs a bunch of those really big guys. and soem eneemies on ghosts. can't rember the name of em though. that battle was awesome. here's how it went. i had a bnashee and needlers full of ammo. From right in the air i gunned down the big guys with banshee missiles and plasma cannons. Then, the ranged weapon users came after me... they had ghosts, and banshees. i was over a cliff edge in my banshee, abotu to explode form damage. i jumped out, fired my needlers at a guy in another banshee, he died, i jumped on, nearly fallign off the cliff in the jump, flew around, and blew up the res tof the buys that were on ghosts. then... guys with missile launchers came in, and hit me. i jumped off, cause my manuevering wasn't enoguh to avoid a dozen missiles at once. i landed on an empty ghost, huidden behind a rock, sncuk aroudn the other side, and blew up the missile guys. and then the battle came to the more boring parts when all i did was shoot grunts and jackals.

Rabish Bini Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I change my previous post. The best ever is: God in The Simpsons Game. You verse God in a Dance Dance Revolution style game to Scorpions "Rock You Like A Hurricane". What a great boss fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
