Striders at the end of Half-Life 2 Episode 2 aren't really hard, but they're really fun to fight Oh hey, a new page
The battle against a being who practically rose to God-hood, and actually destroyed the world. Were it not for a few good comrades who found each other after the world's end, this mad man might never have been stopped. A boss battle from the depths of nostalgia ^_^ I'd also have to recognize the battle against Lord Jabu Jabu from Ocarina of Time. It was one of the first tactical fights that threw me for such a loop as a kid, that I didn't know how to beat it for weeks until a friend told me lol >_<
So uhh... whos that guy? he looks mighty impressive allright, but ho-dinky-di! Im afraid I dont recognize him whatsoever!
Oooh I ve heard of him before... sure looks like a fancy fight all right! hmm... how do you fit that boss on one screen though?
When it comes to trying to pick one boss out of hundreds, many games come to mind, but few stand out as much as Monster Hunter, where every fight is literally a boss battle. Favorite MH Boss Monster: Nargacuga. A black cat/bat/dinosaur thing with glowing red eyes. He will fight you by jumping, slashing, and hurling blades at you, and then fades into the night. He also sleeps in trees, which is... admittedly way too cute for something so vicious. He's like a sleepy ninja. Still, a fun and challenging fight, and very rewarding (as some of his weapons rank amongst the highest in the end-game scene). Plus the armor makes you look like a ninja, too! :O
Oh yeah, I love the Silverwind set from Meownster Hunter X. The fight made so many randoms quit while I was trying to complete it <w<
Oh, man. Trying to find people even willing to entertain the thought of fighting a Deviant is a trial in and of itself, to the point where I actually started solo farming them. Managed to KO Dreadqueen Rathian by myself, using a Gunlance, and after having forgotten to bring antidotes. It was... really rough. T-T
Man, i have some new favorite bosses. Wheatly in portal 2 and Sho Minamimoto (taboo form) in The World Ends With You
Probably a tie between these two ... Admittedly at least in part due to the music for both of them. In terms of difficulty though, definitely Lingering Will. Daimon's really not that hard once you get a handle on how he acts.
Phew, I think the hardest boss I ever got to fight was Omega in his final form, in Megaman Zero 3 Ironically, tho, from his three different forms, this one was the simpler to fight, due to the arena layout, but man do my ass still hurts from hat fight
The dungeon guardian isn't even a boss, it simply is an entity designed to keep you out of the dungeon before defeating Skeletron.
Favourite Boss - Magma Dragoon from MegaMan X4. If you play as X he's not that hard, because he's most dangerous up-close. With Zero however it becomes a deadly dance of flames, plasma blade strikes and a real test of reflexes if you're going for no weapons, no ridearmor, no upgrades, no damage. Always fun to try and do it. Hardest Boss - Extreme Mode MoonLord from Terraria. I can't even imagine how to beat him with no Nurse to quick-heal you. Than again, I refuse to fight with an arena, so yeah, I technically could make him a bit easier.
Ooooh never tried challenging myself back then, I should try it sometime! sure sounds like a very fun and hard fight as Zero!
The Rebel Flaghsip from FTL is one tough sonofagun. You can be OP as much as possible, but if you get distracted and stop micronmanaging shit hits te fan real fast. Not killed the crew? There's a party going on right 'ere in your ship! Hacked your Hacking? Bad news for you if you cab't go through Lvl 4 Shields. Satisfying AF tho
While not particularly challenging, I think Squashini of Kirby's Epic Yarn fame gave me the most enjoyable fight. He literally used magic tricks to fight (decided via slot machine), and they were all really entertaining (one of his attacks was literally strapping you to a bomb). My hardest boss battle would have to be fighting Cynthia in Pokemon Diamond. Damn her and her Pokemons' perfect IVs...
