Yeah. Wily there was killing me. I had maximum E Tanks when I got there, and when I FINNALY beat him, I had used all of my lives and no E Tanks left.
Wily in the first game was horrible, unless youknew pause and resume..
Sigma in X 1. You go from His dog to him to a fused version of the two.
Any boss in Zero. Those games are annoying!
Bass/ Forte in EXE games. Damn shield...

I actually thought Wily in the first game was easy! Didn't have to use that trick either ^_^ .

I thought the Omega Pirate in Metroid Prime (Hard Mode) was pretty hard.

Although not boss fights, the hardest levels on Super Monkey Ball,
and the whole Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal come with
the pain and frustration of the hardest boss fights.

Bowletta from Mario & Luigi: SuperStar Saga

Talk about hell! It took me a good 30 tries before I finally beat her!

mmmmmmmmmmmmm i'd have to go with either Vinny (the first boss) or Burnitol (the last boss) from Dr. Muto. i only rented that game for 5 days, but the last boss was too hard for me. for any of you that dont know, Dr. Muto was a game where he accidentally destroyed his own planet, so he travels to other planets to gather pieces of a generator that could rebuild his planet, and on his journey he learns to transform into other animals, such as gorrilla, mouse, fish, flying squirrel, and spider. when you fight Vinny, you have to fight him as a mouse, and Vinny's a huge robot. when you fight Burnital, you have to fight him as a spider, and he's in a robot.

Hold your laughs until I have time to leave, but the hardest boss I've come across is:

Ganondorf from the Legend of Zelda: The ocarina of time

Seriously, I've tried countless times, but I STILL can't beat that dude. *whimpers*

:unsure: Ok, now you can laugh at me. :(

Mr. Zoro

July 11th, 2005, 04:27 PM

yeah he was kinda hard, but you'll get him.
how long have you been trying to beat him?

silver griffin girl

July 11th, 2005, 04:33 PM

When I first got to him I tryed beating him about 10 times and I've failed each time, And kept on trying to beat him until, out of frustration, I started playing other games like the wind waker and Paper Mario. (Now I'm a loser AND a quiter. :( ) OH WELL. I'm going to start a new file and this time get lots of bottles and pieces of hearts. (The first time around I was just interested in beating the temples, especially the Temple of Darkness, which, while neither hard nor long, creeped me out because the music sounded like there was constantly a wallmaster above my head, and there were far too many of those annoying floormasters. <_< ) Maybe this time I'll beat him. My main problem is not being able to lock on to him.

Mr. Zoro

July 11th, 2005, 04:40 PM

well do you know how to beat him? if you dont i could PM you on how to, but i think you know how.

Solar Knight

July 11th, 2005, 04:49 PM

Ganondorf is actually quite simple (if you know what to do). Took me a while to figure out how to beat him, but here's what ya do:

Stay in one of the corners, not the center pillar!
When he throws that energy ball thing at him, strike it back with yer sword.
Keep doing this until he gets hit and shoot a light arrow at him.
Hookshot him to get there quickly, then whack away at him with your sword.
Repeat until he's defeated~!

I hope that helps a little.

Mr. Zoro

July 11th, 2005, 05:12 PM

oh yeah if you get the biggoron sword by the trading routines, you can use that too. much better
also when he gathers a lot of power and the room turns darker, power up your sword as if you were about to do a spin attack and when he relesases multiple balls of energy, you should release the spin attack and eventually one of them will hit him.

Mega manX boss.... what was his name? Now he was hard! First you had to beat his stupid dog, then you had to beat him, then you had to beat him in super strong mode~ and there wasn't any breaks or pick-me ups or freebies in the entire fight.

Any tetris game's final level. It took me like 2-3 weeks to beat Bowser in Tetris Attack. D:

jadiesama

July 11th, 2005, 06:47 PM

I had a hell of a time beating The Boss from MSG3. I couldn't find her and she kept finding me and kicking my ass.

there's acutally a final level in Tetris?

Carly

July 11th, 2005, 06:49 PM

Wow, so many people had trouble with Wily/Sigma ? o_o; In MM7 use the Thunder Bolt on Wily's first form and the Spring thing for his second form (charged 'o course)... and in MMX you can take the dog down with like two shots of Shotgun Ice, Sigma's first form with the Electric Spark (since he's got a predictable pattern it's pretty easy) and on the last one the Rolling Shield.

Then again maybe you all know that and I've just played it too much :lol:

Mine... golly, I dunno. There's a ton of games I haven't beaten simply because I just stop somewhere in the middle or near the end (for whatever reason), but I'd really have to think hard about that one.

Oh geez, I know. Dracula from Castlevania III. What a bitch to even GET there and what a bitch to try fighting him right afterwards. Euurgh.

Jadiesama - taboo's talking about Tetris Attack and there's a VS. mode in that, where you can get to the last level and kerpow the bad guys. I know I've beaten the game before but I'm not sure if I did it on Hard mode or Medium o_o;

On the Game Boy or the SNES? I've beaten both (but I think I was on intermediate -_- ). I'm probably never going to see the "Special movie" in the old GB Tetris (some Russian dance thingy).

The one time you have to fight Sin near the end of FFX and you have to do it in under a time limit. I stopped playing after that.

You forgot the zombies that look like they're trying to hump Link to death. The mummies and everything else I can deal with, but those zombies scare me so much that I'm afraid of that temple.

Hardest boss? Ruby and Emerald from FF7 are on my list too...I've beaten them, but I learned the hard way that the single character method is really the only way to go. The worst, though, would have to be Ness' Nightmare from Earthbound/Mother 2...one-on-one fight, it can use any spell you can (including the strongest spell in the game), the character you're forced to fight as has no MP recovery magic whatsoever, and I'm pretty sure the thing has a one-hit kill move...not to mention the dungeon you have to walk through to get to the thing is irritating...

Barbarosa or whatever his name was from Valkyrie Profile. I had to train like nuts to beat that cheap-ass. :(

The russian dance was Tengen Tetris. Taboo, he is Sigma. Strange. We said nearly the same thing on him.

The giant goblin/orc/whatever boss in the mine dungeon of Final Fantasy:Crystal Chronicles
surpriseingly, thats all I can think of at the moment.

July 11th, 2005, 07:35 PM

I had a tough time with Gannondorf in Ocarina of Time: Masters Quest. I eventually beat him after two or three tries though. Then there was the Doom Dragon from Golden Sun The Lost Age. All my characters were lvl 25, so I got my ass whooped. All my friends make fun of me for this, but I died several times to the Gigas Lord from FF: Crystal Chronicles. >_< I kept getting in the way of the Lamia's slowga spells. Damn them.

Other toughies:
Salazar from Resident Evil 4
Drakor from Starfox Adventures
That-One-Dude and Bon Clay from OP: Treasure Battle (With Usopp and Chopper, at least. Friggen Battle Royal...)

FFX sin boss is kinda simple. Since yuna's ultimate weapon is easily obtained. Keep holying sin which should do 13k damage if you advanced beyond her grid. If you want, just overdrive summon valefor and spam overdrive valefor twice. if thats not enough, spam summon all with overdrives. My only advice is to get every summon to overdrive and let loose the chaos.

MGS3 the boss is kinda hard. If you want the cheap method. Hide and when she finds you. Before she lands a blow on your, time your O button right and you'll counter. After she's on the floor, spam AK-47 or whatever you want to do on her and run. Repeat procedure and you beat The Boss.

Greg

July 11th, 2005, 07:46 PM

I beat MGS3's final boss in one shot. I just put on my Infrared, pulled out my sniper tranq and she was gone in no time. She never even hit me once.

All too easy.

Retro

July 11th, 2005, 08:17 PM

Can't remember its name but it was this plant boss in FF9. Downright impossible to beat thanks to that stupid instant death spell he keeps using. And the ironic thing was all I had to do was throw a Pheniox Down at him and that was it.

Any King of Fighter boss is also tough whatt with their extreme cheapness.

Slowymobile

July 11th, 2005, 08:30 PM

ok my hardest is definately FFVII Ruby and emerald weapon, i managed to kill them in the end :lol:
FFX bosses were really easy.... i killed the last boss in lyk 1 hit.....

hardest game ive played is little fighter 2 in crazy mode.... impossib;le without cheating :angry:

In the Iifa Tree? Yeah, that thing was the first "real" challenge in that game.

In MSG3 The Boss is simple. Peace of Cake.

Hardest boss fight? Dare I say Sigma in Mega man X? That last form...man....

And I had a really hard time with Atma Weapon (FFVI) the first time through. I had to use X-Zone on the fuck.

And in FFVIII Ultima Weapon. It took luck to beat the bastard.

mihawk in grandbattle rush still haven't beaten him and kid buu in budokai 2. hes not hard he just has a lotta health so i cant win

Carly

July 11th, 2005, 09:18 PM

You can't kill final form MMX Sigma in one hit with the Hadouken. I've tried :lol: Takes off about half his energy but you're not gonna kill him in one hit with it (nor will you kill MMX2 virus Sigma in one hit with the Shoryuken, or MMX3 Sigma with the Zero saber... blah) BTW - for the Hadouken in MMX, it goes like this. You need all enhancements, all heart capsules, all subtanks, etc, and you need nine lives to begin the process (just take care of it in Armored Armadillo's stage, the organic bat drops a 1-up every time you beat it). Then head to Armored Armadillo's stage, make your way through, and when the last little cart thing goes over that huge pit before the end, jump off and die. Then go through that part again, then cling to the ledge and get the last enhancement. If the capsule there doesn't show up just leap off into the pit and try it again from the continue spot. :E

Or I could just like... give people my savestate, haha. XD

I am actually quite surprised that there are so many people here who had trouble with MMX Sigma, to be honest ! o_o; MMX3 Sigma is the one I have most trouble with, and even then... >.>;

And whoever said Barbarosa from VP, you just reminded me. ISERIA QUEEN. Jesus fuck that's a hard battle.

There's the 'puzzle' level and the 'clear' level too. Dang, the Clear was... mind numbingly fast.... There's a super-hard level in the vs too if you beat the regular hard without losing a single match. yhey ^w^

This sounds weird, but Inspector Gadget for SNES is incredibly hard. D:

Carly

July 11th, 2005, 09:37 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot about the puzzle mode. I'm not clever enough for puzzle mode though, which is why I couldn't play TA competitively (my ex did though. he beat me into the ground every single time ._. I can't automatically see the chain combos so I just go for placing as many huge links as I can as fast as I can :E)

Senshi Mizaka

July 11th, 2005, 09:43 PM

Okay; here's one: Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts. I couldn't even hit him, and died after two hits. I seriously don't see how anyone could beat him; it's impossible!

MR.Prince-Sanji

July 12th, 2005, 02:30 AM

Let's see, the hardest bosses right?

1. Dark Element in Dark Cloud 2 - I don't know how to defeat it! :(
2. Mihawk in Grand Rush - I did defeat him, but couldn't get him to perform the special attack. So, I did get annoyed when I play Zoro Expert level.
3. Shanks in Round the Land - He's fast and he kept on blocking the attacks.

July 12th, 2005, 05:01 AM

Sephiroth: Final Fantasy 7 and Kingdom Hearts {DEFEATED}
Kuja (trance form): Final Fantasy 9 (Man, he's annoying..) {DEFEATED}
Necron: Final Fantasy 9 {DEFEATED}
Ozma (most powerful boss in the game): Final Fantasy 9 {DEFEATED}
Shanks: One Piece Round The Land (Man... he's hard to hit) {DEFEATED}
Dark Element: Dark Cloud 2 {TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO BEAT HIM}

And that's about it....

July 12th, 2005, 05:12 AM

mm i beaten a couple of toughies, like Sephiroth from KH (i had to get the strongest sword and like you cant get hit by his super attack or your like down to 1hp and 1mp) and both Ruby and Emerald weapons.... with the emerald it was constant knights of the round>< and Ruby with a bit of luck and about 50 bahumats and 50 knights of the round he died and yay i got the Gold Chocobo :lol: even though i already had it the other way

i dont know if the US version of FFX has this, but the dark aeons!!! OMFG@%@#% THEY ARE SO FRIGGIN HARD!!!!

i know you can juz pay Yojimbo to kill them but whats the point....

out of the dark Aeons ive killed Valephor and ifrit... the other ones are friggin impossible...

not to mention my guys are strong enough to defeat Nemisis (the one in the monster arena where u gotta like collect 10 of each monster :huh: yes i did it)
and my chars do lyk 99,999 to every normal enemy as well as the last boss :blink:

but dam.... dark Aeons.... impossible..... dark yojimbo.. kill him 5 times!!! OMFG
dark Bahumat... die so fast

if anyone has beaten them not using Yojimbo or cheating please tell...

and i forgot to mention Penance.. the FINAL dakr aeon after you kill all the other ones.... Penance has 3 parts his 2 arms have lyk.... 5- 10mil life i think.. and its body has lyk WAY WAY more...

all i can say is that it is impossible and probally impossible to kill.....

87518

He is beatable. That's whether you have enough ethers/elixirs. His style of attack is always repeated. Get the trend and use it against him. The skill which prevents you from being K'Oed is important too( i forgot what it's called). And try to get aeroga or if you can't, aeroa. It should protect you from most of the damage. The killer would be the last 2 bars of his health. I died when he left 1/4 a bar. Damn unlucky i say.

July 12th, 2005, 07:03 AM

The "Ultimate" FFX boss in the US version is really such a ripoff. You can get him stuck in a combo that's just disgustingly easy, you don't even need ridiculous levels just speed. I guess I'm sore because I spent 3 years leveling up my characters completing all Sphere Grids for every character, defeated Shinryu ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY TIMES to get the raw materials for breaking all HP limits of my characters, then maxing all stats, only to find out there was a RIDICULOUSLY SIMPLE WAY TO BEAT HIM.

Beating Omega without even breaking a sweat it my great victory. I worked my ass off to get the appropriate items, stats and levels and it worked perfectly.

You know what a damn hard fight is?????? That boss from FFX-2. That ancient evil in the desert? Holy crap that took some time!!!! I was sweating on that one, I thought I was a goner no less than 7 times.

aww shame the Us version doesnt have dark Aeons.. its way way tougher than the ones you said.. btw does the US have Nemisis? he takes a while....

and yeh that desert dude... boy does he take ages... its not terribly hard but it took me about 30mins....

btw this is the pal version again, the stupid 100floor temple in ffx-2 the last boss is crazy, i cheated to kill him :lol:

Greg

July 12th, 2005, 07:29 AM

Wait, it actually worked? I beat that dumb dog with it, then Sigma, but that final thing would even accept a Hadouken. Not that he was all that hard. :P

Tough bosses......I gotta tell you guys, I like getting my ass kicked. The most fun I have in a game is when I do a great amount of damage, but still lose. Then I'll challenge it over and over again. That said:

Heihachi, Tekken 4
Stupid F4 Robot Thing, Maximum Carnage
Omega Rugal, KoF 2002
Carnage, any game he's in
The Weapons, FFVII (Sephiroth was too easy)
and various bosses from Rockman & Forte

I have a lot of fun with the different variations of Sigma, but they're never much of a threat. I wish he'd strap on some of those insta-kill spikes or get the ability to stop time.

igalsfy

July 12th, 2005, 07:51 AM

the only 2 bosses that i found really hard to beat where the final boss of mgs2 (i saved at a bad time :lol: ) and the final boss of star ocean 2. in fact i've never beat him, i let my little brother do it, he's much more an hardcore gamer than me.

i heard that the secret boss of ff8 was really hard to beat. i just tried it one time, i stood alive for about 5 seconds.

I know what you mean, I had Yojimbo kill Valephor and the Magus Sisters (forgot the correct name). But geez, Shiva is really one of the most difficult of the dark aeons, shes really quick (too quick to kill with Yojimbo). Sin is probably easy compared to her.

Other hard bosses are:
- Seymore (I think his 3rd form with the 2 swords). But I beat him, hes just a toughy when you haven't done enough training.
- Gyorg in The Legend of Zelda: majora's mask. I did beat him but it's difficult to attack him and he scared me at times that he came out of the water
- 2 hands in super smash brothers melee game (one hand is sort of easy though).

Braska's Final Aeon- FFX

Ozma- FF9

Vergil- DMC3's hard mode

Materia Keeper- FF7

Meltigemini- FF9

Fawful- Mario + Luigi

Cackletta's final form- M+L

So far I have only been able to beat Fawful and Meltigemini out of all them.

And the "plant" boss is called the Soul Cage. He's pretty easy, cuz he's already dead.

Ozma- FF9

Ah, alright! I was hoping someone would list Ozma.. Because he isn't hard at all. :)

Not many people seem to be aware of it, but Ozma has a gigantic AI flaw.
To whoop Ozma's ass, you need Zidane, Steiner, Freya, and Amarant. They must
all have auto-haste and should hit for 9999.
All you have to do is... Continuously attack! No joke. :D
By doing so, you are easily hitting Ozma for close to 40,000 every turn, which will prompt him to heal...
And of course, he can only heal 9999 per turn since he uses curaga.
Inflicting so much damage will drive Ozma into a loop that he will be stuck in until you stop hitting him so hard.
These are the patterns Ozma will follow if you use these tactics.

Pattern 1
Turn 1: Attack (usually comet or whatever)
Turn 2: Curaga

Pattern 2
Turn 1: Curaga
Turn 2: Curaga

And as you can see, he can't even heal 20,000 HP before you're beating on him again. He'll drop like a rock, trust me. :)

July 12th, 2005, 09:19 AM

And i thought Braska's final aeon was easy. Demondays. This should be what you should have at least have at this point.

Each of your main characters has completed his/her own sphere grid and finishing the 2nd or 3rd sphere grid.
Yuna must have her ultimate weapon. Hers is the easiest to achieve. Serious.
Start battle with Tidus, Yuna and your strongest 3rd character. Cast Hastaga + Protect + Shell on everyone. Use tidus and 3rd character to eliminate the pagodas healing the aeon. keep using holy from yuna. if i recall, if you repeat this. You'll beat first form. second form is similar. just that you have to use tidus to "talk" to him to lower the overdrive. Repeat process. You've done it. You beat it.

And as you can see, he can't even heal 20,000 HP before you're beating on him again. He'll drop like a rock, trust me. :)

The hardest bosses I ever faced were:

Lassic from Phantasy Star IV (My older brother and I kept trying to kill that guy and I finally pulled it off in about a month.)
The Profound Darkness from Phantasy Star IV
and Jinpatchi from Tekken 5 (because he is an overly aggresive cheap bastard)

Tongari

July 12th, 2005, 04:16 PM

The ones that come to mind:

-In FFX, Yunalesca. She is by far the most difficult boss in the game. There are of course the Dark Aeons, but rather than difficult, I regard them as insanely powerful.

-Jinpachi Mishima of Tekken 5. Sure, he's beatable, but I happen to think that the extra fireball-spitting mouth on his stomach was a bit too much, especially as the characters lost their moonjump abilities after T2 and have gotten less cooperative where sidestep is concerned.

- in FFVIII, anything I'm forced to fight with Rinoa by my side. I don't really know how I let it happen, but I just ran around with a party consisting entirely of guys for a long while, so the girls suck pretty bad at the present time.

I will also forever hate Ursula in Kingdom Hearts, because almost despite mastering flying I never quite got the hang of swimming. Go figure.

You can't kill final form MMX Sigma in one hit with the Hadouken. I've tried :lol: Takes off about half his energy but you're not gonna kill him in one hit with it (nor will you kill MMX2 virus Sigma in one hit with the Shoryuken, or MMX3 Sigma with the Zero saber... blah)
87508

Wait, it actually worked? I beat that dumb dog with it, then Sigma, but that final thing would even accept a Hadouken. Not that he was all that hard. :P

I have a lot of fun with the different variations of Sigma, but they're never much of a threat. I wish he'd strap on some of those insta-kill spikes or get the ability to stop time.
87724
[/b][/quote]

Oh, yeah, it'll work, but you have to hit just about perfectly at the right time his hands are swinging around and honestly it's just literally not worth the effort to try. I tell you what though, virus Sigma in MMX2 + Shoryuken = toast :lol: Hell, hardest thing in MMX2 is GETTING the Shoryuken, even.

Rockman and Forte... oh jesus. DYNAMO MAN. I haven't gotten through King's castle yet but I am dreading when I'm going to have to fight him again. That's got to be one of the top five cheapest robot masters in the entire Megaman line. :|

Syan Strife

July 12th, 2005, 07:33 PM

Emerald and Ruby are tough to fight, but I was able to beat them pretty easily.

For Emerald, I gave Cloud the 4x Cut, final Attack+Phoenix, Master Summon+MP Absorb. And my standard of Mastered Counters filling every other slot, doing like 10 counters when hit. Just plain physical beatdown.

For Ruby, the same thing except KOTR attacks constantly. Owned him.

The fights I consider truly tough are any KOF boss except Duke or Mukai, Gill (Street Fighter III), and Jason from the Friday the 13th game on NES. It's been like ten years and I still can't beat him.

you cant kill the Ruby and emerald using normal attacks... u need to assault them bad with knights of the round and Bahumat... with the emerald i think i came up with a materia combo that coudl lyk summon it i think 4-5 times in a row without emerald hitting me....i'll see if i can find it... i wrote it down somehwere, i dont think it works on Ruby though as he counters summons.... but in the end i killed both those bastards :lol:

Slowymobile

July 12th, 2005, 08:56 PM

ok i found it, i came up with it but since i already killed the emerald weapon i couldnt test if it summoned it 8 times... i tried on a normal enemy and it says summon X4 aswell as the double summon... so it should work.

Fisrt u gotta a weapon that has at least 1 ()-() slot with 2 extra () slots. First equip the weapon and put
HP -MP materia into the single slot. Next put KOTR materia linked with Quadruple meteria and put Wsummon into another slot. Now go into battle and it should say KOTR x4 and with WSummon it can be chosen 2times and that equals 8 times. Most enemies would die way b4 the attack even finishes but if u use this against the Emerald wepaon then u should kill him in one hit. This diesnt work well on Ruby since he counters every turn. The Hp-Mp materia gives u enough magic to summon KOTR 8 times but then u will only have 999HP max.
(yay the very first code thingy i came up with ever!!) i claim it since its not in the net

hope it works :Pif it does have fun sitting there for about 40mins looking at knights of the round continually attack

umm Yunalesca was the boss at the end of the zanarkand ruins, she has lyk 3 forms or something, she was quite tough... and with Yojimbo it sorta based on how much you pay him before, during and after the fight...

i read somewhere that if he uses his dog your "relationship" with him decreases and he wont use his super very often, if he uses the other attacks then you had a better chance of getting his super.. just depends how much you pay.

the only super use for Yojimbo is to kill the dark Aeons, fastest and easiest way, 1 hit KO.

btw sometimes Yojimbo is really really stingy, i payed him lyk 10mil once for the hell of it and then he juz sends out his dog.... Yojimbo then died in 1 hit from dark Bahumat...

thelousy

July 13th, 2005, 05:19 AM

Yojimbo is only used for instant KOing any bosses regardless dark aeons or hard bosses. Other then that, just throw him away.

I beat Yunalasca in my 3rd attempt. Was careless in my first and second. Keep forgetting to keep one person zombified.

i see some people have trouble taking down emerald and ruby wpn from ff7, i will give you my guide to utterly annilating these foes.
EMerald is 100x harder then ruby ruby is actually insanely easy.

EMerald wpn walkthrough: The underwater materia isnt really needed. You will need the followin materia Knights of the round, mime, W summon, Final attack, life and or pheonix materia. For this tactic come in with everyone having their limit break (preferably cloud, tifa, and a random other person with a multiple hit limit break) open up with limit break/w summon Kotr whichever happens first. mne it and after about 10 or so kotr he will drop.

Emerald wpn walkthrough melee combat only. ive managed to take down this beast with no offensive magic. I just used 4x cut on all my characters and came in with their limits and used them when they came up. Final attack, double cut. haste etc etc are all needed for this. I reconmend Cloud, tifa, and cid if you want to use this tactic. randomly throw out a mega elixir if you get hurt you will see he has nothing on your party and you will grind him down.

Ruby wpn- after takin down emerald wpn this guy is a joke. just do the following link the following Master summon <-> Mp absorb Kotr <-> hp absorb Final attack <-> life and a w summon.
Just cast kotr 2 times he will hit you back with ultima but the thing is after you cast kotr, you will get back all of your hp/mp back due to the absorb materias. he literally cant touch you with this method

i would like to add that in mission 50 super gold sol badguy is Porbably the hardest boss ever. (for ps2 version of guilty gear xx)

Most SNK fighting game bosses. Especially Omega Rugal, but also Krizalid, Zankuro, Geese, etc.

Guilty Gear- in the original, Justice was a pain in the ass. And that bastard EX Gold Sol in GGX2.

Valkyrie Profile- for the one who said the Iseria Queen, at least she's optional. Unlike that son of bitch Bloodbane or that ho-bag Loki. Both amazingly annoying.

MegaTen: Nocturne- Most of these bosses will absolutley cream you. But the Matador, Metatron, Lucifer, and Thor stick in my mind.

Digital Devil Saga- Oh my freakin god! I loathe Hitoshura with all my being. I don't believe there is another boss as hard as him...

Star Ocean 2- Indalecio with limiter off was quite hard.

I'll also throw in the Egg from Saga Frontier II, it was pretty frustrating.

FF X-2: That old guy on level 100. Angra Manyu was a piece of cake, with a couple of dark knights and an alchemist.

FF10:
Dark Yojimbo (defeated) Man, HOW is it fair to have us fight him so many times??
Dark Bahamut (defeated) Insane.
Dark Anima, and Magus sisters. Bitches the lot of them. With +8million Hp, that is to be expected though.
Every other boss, even the arena creations, fade in comparison.

FF8: Omega. Ultima weapons' got NOTHING on him.

FF9: Ozzzma. I eat every other boss in the game for breakfast, but this guy...man...

FF7: Ruby and Emerald of course.

Star Ocean 3: most bosses actually, because of your shit-for-brains teammates. "Laser beams?! Uh-oh! Better stand completely still!" or "I think I'll get myself stuck in a corner now!"

The final boss (not the regular final, the secret final after you collect all of the... whatever you were supposed to collect, I don't even remember anymore) of Densetsu no Stafi 3. IIRC, he was just called "Evil", and that's what he was, pure EVIL. You had to hit him like 30 times without your own meager heath meter being depleted, and during the final phase most of his attacks were homing and took up the full screen.

Didn't die once, beaten him more than I can count without loosing a single guy.

The boss fight that you should be dying severely on is Duhallan (sp?) in the secret Djinn Dungeon . Now that is one tough SOB. Can't even beat him that well even after leveling up to max of 99 for all characters, only managed it twice, ever.

I beat him at level 65 by using the cheap "uber summon mob" strategy... I've been trying to beat him fair and square for about a year now... >_< I've failed miserably...

The Weapons, FFVII (Sephiroth was too easy)

O_o Really? Emerald was eaaaaaaaaaaasy... You can own him with your party around level 35...

it depends on how you define hard

like having A BAZILLION hitpoints is more tedious than hard

that being said the bosses I found hard were

Cerebrus - DMC 3, bleh annoying enemy

Seymour(Snow Place) - FFX, hes just a higher AI then the rest of the game it seemed.

these 2 are the only 2 that stand out atm

One boss I do remember and really hated because it was so annoying too was the final boss from Rayman 2, where you are strapped to an explosive rocket and flying break-point u-turns around the inside of a volcano while trying to fire at the boss above, also having to watch out when the lava levels rise too.

Yeah, I have no idea how he did it either, or even if being level 255 added any stats, but I prefered not to ask questions. It was probably some kind of "highest level" type thing that made it glitch. Kind of like how you could give your Pokemon Rare Candies in Red and Blue versions (after doing the Missingno glitch) to raise them to insanely high levels (I remember a level 255 Electrode, coincidentally).

September 8th, 2007, 07:52 PM

I'm bumping this thread because, reading the giant battle against Bunchuu in Houshin Engi reminded me of probably one of the most memorable and insanely powerful bosses I can remember.

Luca fucking Blight (Suikoden II). Holy crap.

Basically, he was the leader of the kingdom you spend the game fighting against. He is INSANELY POWERFUL, and this point is drilled into your head throughout. On the military maps, even time a unit tries to fight against his they'd be utterly decimated. He seems almost untouchable throughout the game. But really, that wasn't enough to impress you because "Oh, I'll just kill him at the end." That's where the encounter (about halfway through) comes in.

The scenario is that your tactician decides Luca Blight needs to fucking go so you lure him into an assault on your forces. Basically, this is what happens:

You need to set up 3 parties to fight him, back to back. And Suikoden parties are 6 people, so you have a total of 18 PCs fighting him. And archers still had to barrage him with arrows and soldiers had to attack him in order for the bastard to start going down.

I mean think about that

18 OF YOUR GODDAMN PARTY MEMBERS WEREN'T ENOUGH TO KILL HIM. I mean JESUS CHRIST.

And it's not like he wasn't a hard boss in those battles, either. You basically had to survive for as long as possible until he inevitably kills off the party, while doing as much damage as possible to him (he had one pool of HP that retained the damage through).

And what was even better was his last lines, which pretty much summed him up:

"It took hundreds to kill me but I killed humans by the thousands. I am sublime!!! I am the true face of evil!!!!"

And honestly, past that point, nothing in the game seemed as threatening (save for a few annoying military battles).

So yeah, Luca Blight.

Also, I had plenty of difficulty to defeat the fifth boss of Ghosbusters for Sega Genesis: A Flytrap demon which resembles Audrey II of Little Shop of Horrors. It sent little plants to attack me, while at the same time threw a giant beam. Even the Marshmallow Man wasn't so bad like this guy.

Seven Force (Gunstar Heroes)

You're in a mincart speeding along when the words BOSS APPROACHING flash on the screen and you're all like "I can take him" The name Seven Force comes up and as you get ready and your first opponent, a giant green robot, appears and gives chase. He tosses boomerangs, bombs, can extend his arm and tip over you rather akwardly. He isn't that hard but he will do some damage.

After you destroy him you enter a vertically scrolling section and he transforms into a blue eagle with a new health bar and you stare at the screen in dismay. He climbs up at you while jerking about clunkily at different angles. It's almost impossible to dodge all of his attacks yet when you've pinned down his movements it's not so hard.

After the eagle's dead he gets a new healthbar and becomes a giant levitating golden handgun that spins around and fires at you. This guy is rediculously easy as not only can you easily dodge all of the attacks, he also has to reload every now and again so the handgun is no trouble.

Then after that's all done, you end up in another vertical section, the boss has a new healthbar and is now a purple sea urchin. He hangs around at the top bouncing back and forth until he picks a side and becomes a buzzsaw, going down the side a cutting it up. You will almost always get hit. When his health is getting low, he will begin to shoot balls of light instead.

You must then fight it again, having rejuvinated itself and turned into a red wall that fires bombs, balls of light and smaller walls. Thos can all be destroyed with but one bullet, but buy this point your health has been run down so much that you're just screwed. While you're trying to shoot a ball of light, a wall can hit you easily. I have never gotten past the wall stage.

Castlevania: Circle of the Moon- The Zombie Dragon was insane. It would fire a laser at you, shoot you with a bunch of simultaneous fireballs, it had very high HP, and (if my memory's correct) if you touch it, you'd get poisoned. And the worst part...there was two of 'em! Meaning you had two simultaneous attacks flying at you all the time, and when one of them finally died, the surviving one would start eating the other's corpse and regain HP.

Also from Castlevania: Circle of the Moon- Death. In every game, Death is supposed to be a real bitch to beat, but in this one...whoo boy!! In addition to the small scythes flying everywhere, he got really tough in his second form, a sort of skeletal scorpion. He would body slam the ground and it would paralyze you. That one took me a while to beat.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories- Vexen was a real pain in my ass with his attack that would make a track of ice spikes that follow you while your running away from him. And then Riku Replica with his inescapable Dark Aura attack...unless you have a bunch of Zero Cards, then these guys were relatively easy to take out.

Kingdom Hearts II- Xaldin in any mode was a bitch, and Xemnas in Proud Mode, where he was almost three times as hard to kill. His attacks took off about twice as much HP as they do normally.

I can't think of any more. If I do, I'll post 'em!

The only boss in KH II that actually killed me was Xigbar. And that was before I learned how insanely easy it is to dodge that special attack of his.

Then again, I never fought Sephiroth because I didn't really want to see more of him..

Hardest Boss? You mean, besides anything that SNK has ever done? Because their fighting game bosses are the stuff of evil legends. Hard as HELL, but I love every minute of it. You know you're a fucking MAN when you can take on Magaki (range attack master/whore) with Gesse "The Muthafuckin' Man" Howard (a close-ranger), and not be taken down.

Other than SNK's beasts, the hardest I can recall was Ghaleon, from Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete. The final version. God, I fought him over and over for hours, then I didn't know you could die during the story sequence after him, and...

Oh yeah, that reminds me of another boss fight from hell.

So if he has his super bar charged (I forgot by how much), he'll automatically revive, so you have to bank on him using another super move on you if you want to knock him out immediately. But I don't know about Double Impact, I only played the Third Strike version of SF3.

Basically Gill's regular and special moves would freeze or burn you, along with pushing you back a decent amount. I never had luck with getting him to use up his special bar before I kill him. So it was basically a waiting game trying to not get hit.

That Dragon in Vagrant Story. I swear, I had to chain 50 hit 1 dmg per hit combos in order to kill it. Nuts.

Ruby and Emerald Weapon in FF7. Even with KotR and Omnislash going off, one fook and everyone died.

Proto-Ultima in FFXI Online (You wouldn't understand unless you've played it)

Dynamis Lord (FFXI)

Final boss in Dragon Quest IV. Just when you think he's dead... he sprouts ANOTHER HEAD, or ANOTHER PAIR OF ARMS. It was insane.

The hidden Bosses in Wild Arms 2.

N.Gin in Crash Bandicoot 3.Yeah,its not THE hardest boss fight in the world,but out of all the 3 original ps Bandicoot games,hes the toughest,I mean, unlike Brio who in CB 1 had more "lives" N.Gin has less,but each you must strike an awfull lot of times.I mean, when I first played the game years ago,I let my dad (who is also a fan of the series) play, cause I couldnt handle it and he did it.I managed a long time afterwards.And even though I never beat N.GIn I stil defeated Cortex ,meaning the FINAL boss is easier then the penultimate.

Wow, uh. Fuck Ultimate Rugal. Can't even beat him on the easiest difficulty.

EVERYTHING he does has more priority than anything you do. His normals are better. His specials [FUCK THAT GODDAMN RISING KICK HE HAS] are better. Won't even get into G-End and his other super, especially if he has the goddamn K Groove.

Moronic boss. Just plain moronic.

Honestly try Bison against him. Ultimate Rugal spams reppukens, which leaves him completely open for a psycho crusher. Bison's mid and high kicks also have insane priority, and devil reverse works brillantly to confuse him and make him use his shitty cutting kick bullshit, as Bison lands earlier you can punish him this way.

Tsuchirinhon

September 10th, 2007, 01:18 PM

He's not spamming Reppuken, though. He's actually doing mix-ups [largely through throwing], poking, and baiting attacks so he can stuff them with his rising kick bullshit.

He does, like, one Reppuken per match.

Igniz, Goenitz, and Omega Rugal. Prime examples of SNK Boss Syndrome.

God/Ultimate Rugal was never THAT hard, IMO. I've fought alot worse from the KoF series. It took some tries, but I got him. And Shin Akuma is just pathetic. I was expecting another intense round of fighting (I fought him after God Rugal; I wanted to unlock the boss version of Rugal first, obviously), and I killed the guy on my first try. Like night and day, those two.

Then again, it does make a good comparison between SNK bosses and Capcom ones (Gill not withstanding). =P

Tsuchirinhon

September 11th, 2007, 12:32 PM

Ultimate Rugal is bullshit because:

1) Rising kick.
2) If he has the K Groove.

If he didn't have those, he wouldn't be that difficult. Just fuck it if you get hit by his rising kick WHILE he's enraged with K Groove.

Igniz, leader of NESTS. Boss of KoF 2k1

Captain Shmeckie

September 11th, 2007, 06:26 PM

I guess I get your unadulterated respect, then. I've beaten Igniz many times before. But, I do play the shit outta KoF games. Igniz IS a fucking bitch, though. Particularly that Brutal God Project of his. Him being so tough is appropriate, considering the story behind him. Still, though, seeing him dash at me to hit me with the BGP freaks me out way more than seeing Akuma come at me with his Shun Goku Satsu ever has...

Looking back, one of the more ridiculous bosses in KoF history was Omega Rugal from 2002. Mainly because Eolith ramped up Rugal's damage levels. I guess they love him even more than main SNK does... They gave him a DM, wherein he grabs you, and upon grabging you, pummels the shit out of you, then hits you with a Genocide Cutter. This DM does TWO THIRDS OF YOUR EFFING LIFE! And since he's such a large-ass man, he's got long reach with that move. I'm not really complaining, as I've already stated that I love hard boss fights in fighters, just shocked. Apparently getting Norio Wakamoto as your VA for one game merits getting your damage values skyrocketed... The only game where I feel guilty for using Rugal, but having a team of Goenitz, Geese, and Rugal is just too godly not to love.

Love 2002...

Actually, the boss fights in NeoGeo Battle Coliseum definately deserve mention. Not only are their AIs some kind of witches, but they have ramped up attack and defense to compensate for the fact that it's 3 on 1 (common for SNK bosses), AND they HEAL! Throughout the WHOLE FIGHT!

The Golden Sun games had some pretty nasty bosses...Like dreadbeard in the first one, and that side-quest wizard in the second one. And to gain a spell that uses all the djinn, there is some knight you have to defeat who just pwns your ass. I haven't beat him, and have concluded that he is tougher than the final boss of the game.

Star Magician is eeeeeeeeeeeeeeasy... Just break his balls until he has four of the kind that cast electricity, then have people like Felix and Isaac beat on the Wizard, and Jenna and such heal and protect you with Djinn. Then after about 10 turns, summon everything you have and beat his ass.

Dullahan is completely different without the turn 1 kill strategy. He's a beast.

September 12th, 2007, 08:58 PM

One boss that really frustrated me was the golden robot from Skygunner. In order to break his armor, you have to fire six bombs into him and detonate them all at once by shooting them. But I almost always detonate at least five of them without the other one going off in time. What makes it worse is that I eventually run out of fuel and crash. The only way I can beat him is with sheer dumb luck.

Kei

September 12th, 2007, 09:01 PM

Igniz isn't really a problem anymore for me at least (neither is Magaki or Mukai). The one that's given me and my husband both hell is Devilhand (Godhand) on hard mode. We lost a controller to my husband's frustration with him. :(

Chain Yanker + 2 dodge canceled Yes M'am Kablam's = key to easy victory for every boss in Godhand.

On topic, Daimaou Lucifer in Shin Megami Tensei: Nocture is A FUCKING BITCH TO BEAT RAGNAGANGNRAGNAGNAGARGH seriously if you aren't near maxed out your attacks barely phaze him even if you lower his stats completely. He gets critical hits half of the time, can charm you entire party and most of his other attacks kicks your party's ass.

And to boot, if you die, you have to fight Kagutsuchi ALL OVER AGAIN ARGH.

Damn, I still gotta finish Godhand, stopped at the last boss. That game is so awesome. Gives me a comical HnK vibe when I play it. And Elvis is by far the best character in the game.

Timur Lane

February 12th, 2008, 05:20 AM

Concerning God Hand, I actually thought some of the enemy encounters were harder than the bosses.

Take this for instance, at the last level I got through a fight with some strong enemies. When I took them out I thought, " finally finished, time for the final bosses".
But as I walk up the stairs I arrive at a large courtyard, where eight of the strongest enemies in the game are waiting for me(also my most hated enemies in the game). After many continues I start to cheer as I finally take out the last guy, and suddenly a trident demon pops out of him and kills me in one hit.

Thats probably the only time I have taken my frustrations out on the furniture, due to a game.

Edit: By the way, I was playing on normal. I can't even think how insane it is on hard. Moral of the story, God Hand is hard shit.

I'd say those hidden bosses in Wild ARMs 4 were pretty nasty. They're all like Level 90 and shit and my party dies in a couple of turns with every one I tried to face.

The weirdest of them were the magazines. I didn't get that. Why the hell do a bunch of magazines know some of the best magic in the game and constantly spam it? I think I've only been able to kill 3 of those bastards max (There's 12 of them). They're all around Level 75 too.

These bosses, are they the ones who pop up in ordinary random battles, fool you with unimpressve apperances, and proceeds to vanquish your sorry as or rob you of all your money if you tryto escape? They didn't seem like bosses, but nevertheless sent my jaw to the floor with sheer unfairness.

Lance

February 12th, 2008, 02:58 PM

Not really, they have really impressive appearances and make you scream "HOLY SHIT" because they have like 3 turns to burn your sorry ass before you even move. They're sealed (except for the Fish and the Magazines) so you'll know if you're fighting them. And you can't escape either.

And I got confirmation, one of them is level 90 (and what's even worse it has an attack that brings all party members to 1 HP. Fffffffff-) Some others give you misery and the Agony Affect which is possibly as annoying as the Malboros in Final Fantasy. Also, found the Magazine bastard on Gamefaqs. It's called "Adult Magazine," you face about 12 of them, they are all Level 75, and magic attacks consist of Graviton, Dispel, High Blast, and Quicken (WHAT THE EFFING HELL. As if 12 of them going normally wasn't enough.) Not to mention it's weaknesses consist of NOTHING.

Fire Leo in Viewtiful Joe 1 when I first got the game. Was impossible to beat when I first got it. Then I met Evil King Blue at the end of the game years after...

Black Pierrot from the arcade game Magical Drop 3. Not really a boss, more a secret opponent, but you were literally made to lose if you managed to fight him.

The Dragon in Vagrant Story. I swear, I had to do a 50 hit 1 dmg per hit chain twice to kill him.

Final Boss in Simpsons: The Arcade Game. Doing it solo was a bitch.

Final Boss in Ninja Gaiden/Black/Sigma. The boss himself wasn't so hard, it was a bitch if you weren't prepared. There's no place to buy potions or healing devices between this boss fight and the previous boss fight. Of course, I didn't have the ultimate wooden sword thing either, so that didn't help.

YES! I was stuck there forever my first time. My friend kept telling me to go train and I would be like "No fuck you, I'll beat it some how."

So I went and trained and beat it.

Also, that secret boss at the clock tower in Peter Pan's world in Kingdom Hearts I was a bitch for me. :(

A number of the bosses in Megaman ZX Advent had quite a ball thrashing me the first time through. Argoyle and Ugoyle, for example, move around a LOT. Most of the time they're in unison, but, say, when one jumps while the other dashes, it threw me off. Argoyle's tri-rock bomb attack was incredibly hard to dodge when he's charging straight at you.

Pandora and Prometheus threw me for a loop a bit then they perform two different attacks at the same time. Timing is very key there. And it took me forever to figure out the incredibly easy was to dodge Prometheus's rotating flame pillar attack.
