Faveorite Boss Fights? (top 3)

[Reine]

Sonic 3 and Knuckles: The final battle playing as Knuckles, I really enjoyed fighting Mecha Sonic and Super Mecha Sonic, plus the music was bloody awesome.

Also, from the same game, The Doomsday Zone. Hurtling through space dodging asteroids and missiles, chasing after Robotnik, as Super Sonic, was so awesome, plus it has the perfect music for the occasion, it REALLY fit, imo.

Again, in that game, the Lava Reef boss fight, it was a mini level actually. That game was really awesome in regards to the boss battles.

[NINJA_Ryu]

1. The Nameless One vs. The Transcendent One in Planescape: Torment, mostly for the incredible dialogue and the fact that selecting the text choices to avoid the battle actually gives you the cooler ending(s) IMO.
2. Darth Malak in KoTOR
3. Ganon in OoT (after the tower collapses)...I also really like the Phantom Ganondorf battle in the Forest Temple of that game.

Golbez from ff4

tavion/marka ragnos & tavion/kyle (depending on side) in jedi academy (awesome long battles)

also bowser in any mario game ^^

[Madame Adequate]

1) Luca Blight in Suikoden II. No question, it's more hardcore than anything.
2) Roboprez in Destroy All Humans! because, well, he's 60 feet tall, President, a robot, and pledges to "DESTROY ALL FURONS".
3) Cyberdemon in DooM. What, honestly, needs to be said about him?

[LunarWeaver]

1) Psycho Mantis from MGS.
2) Sephy's One Winged Angel situation from FFVII
3) Magus from Chrono Trigger. Running up while the candles light up and the music always make me all giddy with anticipation.

[sephirothishere]

actually...i change my list.....i like the boss battle with the cyborg ninja when you save otacon.....thats cool........

[Ashi]

-Final thing in Radiata Stories, it hasn't been that long but I cant remember its name.

-Sephiroth in KH2

-Tennis with Ganon (any, though Ocarina of Time's final is a personal fave).

[Vermachtnis]

-Final thing in Radiata Stories, it hasn't been that long but I cant remember its name.

Do you mean the Silver Dragon, Aphelion (Sp?), or the end optional boss, Ethereal Queen. Cause they're both pretty fun fights with bad arse music.

[Araciel]

-Final thing in Radiata Stories, it hasn't been that long but I cant remember its name.

you played it to the end?? :mog:

[Pete for President]

1) Psycho Mantis from MGS.
2) Sephy's One Winged Angel situation from FFVII
3) Magus from Chrono Trigger. Running up while the candles light up and the music always make me all giddy with anticipation.

Can't believe I forgot Psycho Mantis!

I would also like to add Ayame vs. Tatsumaru from Tenchu 2. Although Ayame is my least favorite playable character of the game, the battle was kinda epic. Rikimaru vs. Tatsumaru was cool aswell, but there seemed to be less on the line than Ayame's fight. (SPOILER)Too bad they screwed Tatsu in Tenchu 3 though, he should'nt have been revived or w/e happens in T3.

#1 Crocomire (Super Metroid)



There are longer, more intense fights in Super Metroid, but this one has always been the most memorable to me for two reasons.

A) It's the first boss fight since Bowser in Super Mario 3 where I was forced to think outside the box, as normal attacks had no effect on the creature.

B) It ended with, to this day, the goriest boss death ever for a first party Nintendo game. The post-battle surprise made me jump out of my seat.

The title says it all. Name your favorite boss fights of all time, whether due to the scenario, the challenge, the music, and so forth.

I've given it some thought, and I'd have to say the following three choices make up my favorite boss battles in my history of playing games.

#2 Seven Force (Gunstar Heroes)



Unquetionably the best boss fight for the best action game ever made. Real men take on Green and his Seven Force in expert mode, where you'll have to fight off all seven forms at once. I've spent many summers fighting Seven Force, and just recently I downloaded the Sega Ages: Treasure Box iso to play GH on my PS2. After all this time, the game hasn't gotten old, and neither has Seven Force.

#3 Zakat (Zone of the Enders 2)

(best pic I could find)

I absolutely love this fight for nearly the same reasons I love Seven Force. The aesthetics all came together perfectly here. The setting has Jehuty (your mech) and Zakat high up in the sky, past the clouds. The two opponents (Dingo and Zakat's pilot) trash talk each other in a beautifully animated cutscene. The whole battle plays homage to the very best mecha anime. Also, the boss music really, really owns.

[Zeromus_X]

-Kefka in FFVI for sure.

-Bloodbane in Valkyrie Profile.

-Marx in Kirby Super Star.

Still, I could list on and on. But I guess I can pick these three.

[Ashi]

-Final thing in Radiata Stories, it hasn't been that long but I cant remember its name.

Do you mean the Silver Dragon, Aphelion (Sp?), or the end optional boss, Ethereal Queen. Cause they're both pretty fun fights with bad arse music.

Silver Dragon, I guess.

Played it to the end... but not the extra stuff.

[pinkmage]

i cant think of many off the top of my head...
ive always liked fighting the chocobo eater in FFX tho

my favourite tbh has got to be Alec Trevelyan on Goldeneye 007
Fighting him on the cradle is awesome, it can be fun to make it easy on 007 mode or on agent, but it is a good challenge on 00 agent.

The best thing is getting all the cheats and putting everyone on fast animation + all guns and turbo mode etc
