    ~Donkey Kong country, spent 3 weeks trying to beat him! In the end my saved game became corrupted and I never went back to it.

    Does the Ready! Steady! Go! meteorite in Ouendan count? Because ive been trying to pass it on normal for a fortnight now and that triple spin section makes me lose every single time.
    Otherwise, I tend to be disapointed by end of game bosses, usually easier than the penultimate boss. I have however come across final levels - not necessarily bosses that are extremely difficult.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,561 ✭✭✭Rhyme


    Last boss in True Crime (guy on airport runway)... there are more but that one springs to mind instantly :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,967 ✭✭✭Pyr0


    Xaero from Q3 Arena on Nightmare, at the age of 12 I never knew so much frustration is my whole life up to that point :eek:

    That bastard at the end of Dynamite Headdy. The worst part was that it was down to luck if you beat him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,371 ✭✭✭✭Zillah


    Sarevok.

    Until of course I kinda cheated and used Summon Monster wands to zerg him.

    GAH!
    I would've finished it by now as well if they didn't make you sit through that ****ing intro for 3 minutes before starting play each time:mad:

    The final fight in god of war on god mode when you fight a multitude of kratos clones. it made baby jebus cry. controller throwing excruciating agony. never did finish it either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,836 ✭✭✭Vokes


    End of game boss in FFIX.

    He had some random status effect attack on the whole party, I think ....potentially fatal, and very annoying :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,643 ✭✭✭0ubliette

    Yep, almost impossible to finish with spartan, and it sucks, cause spartan is pretty good int he game but just not fast enough. I almost broke my xbox controller the day i bought the console because of that game.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    Zeed in the Revenge of Shinobi (Mega Drive)

    Another one and not a boss as such, but the final level in Call of Duty 2 (Xbox 360) was the most intense,difficult and brilliant 20 minutes I have ever played in a game. Hundreds of Nazi soldiers advancing on a small hilltop bunker that you and your squad are trying to protect. Emptying clip after clip in pure desperation as explosions go off around you and cover becomes scarce. Absolute brilliance.

    Fecker at the end of Metroid Prime, and the final stages of Warhammer Fire Warrior, great game but got really tough at the end.
    Also pretty much all of Ikaruga, I will never ever sell it but I will always see it as a small disc shaped bully, mocking me from its shelf, the little git!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,817 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    Ikaruga, keeping myself from swallowing my tongue while in spasm.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 343 ✭✭kaizersoze123


    That boss at the end of Viewtiful Joe, absolute ba*&ard. I gave up eventually


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,968 ✭✭✭jcoote


    i'm gonna go with the boss at the end of true crime aswell he was unbelieveably hard.

    the boss at the end of ninja gaiden was poxy too

    Fire Lord Leo was harder than the last boss. Not only was he tough to figure out but even when you did he was a complete bastard to kill.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,249 ✭✭✭✭Kinetic^


    KOTOR1, hard enough.

    Can't say I agree, I made bits of him first time, didn't break much of a sweat either.

    This isn't a final boss, but the Dark Aeon versions of Cindy, Sandy and Mindy in FFX, or Penance. Ouch. Never beat the girls, so never got a chance at Penance.

    Alpha-152 is tough but in my ignorance I think Shao Kahn is tougher in terms of fighting game bosses. Didn't stop my housemate from ending him in 2 rounds while I watched in disbelief of course :o Guess I suck balls at UMK3

    Dirty, cheap, rotten, cheating bosses like Shao Kahn don't count for me. Bosses should be tough but beatable with skill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,010 ✭✭✭besty


    I remember the final level in Streets of Rage (2) maybe was very tough. Every enemy on the level was a boss from a previous level then there was some form of freak at the end who was extremely difficult.

    I haven't finished GoW yet either but haven't given it much time to be fair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    What about that guy in the wheelchair at the end of Final Fight? It's been a long time, but he used to drive me nuts.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 74 ✭✭Mr_Overlord


    M.Bison in SFII on max difficulty was a kind of a pain.

    As mentioned before The 3 girls in FFX and penance of course!

    I never beat one dark aeon let alone get to the sisters.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Mr. K


    Some of the hardest boss fights for me include:

    1) Primagen (Turok 2) - So many attacks, you'd think some of the crazy weapons in that game would've been effective.

    2) Mizar (Jet Force Gemini) - Confined to a tiny plaform, with missiles and claws coming at me from all angles. After rescuing all those damn bears, I was hoping for reasonable final boss.

    3) Solidus on Extreme (MGS2) - I spent hours trying to beat this guy. I learnt all his attack patterns, but it still took a crazy amount of effort.

    4) Akuma (SS2T) - I got to fight him when I was a kid, he slaughtered me utterly! I can't remember ever beating him. If I had, I'm pretty sure I'd remember the joy that would've followed...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    the mofo at the end of Gods by the bitmap brothers on Atari St. I tired so many many times to beat him and came so close but he always killed me in the end.

    Oh man how right you are. It always annoyed me how far away he could be from you and still perform a throw grrr!

    I feel your pain -

    Not an end of game boss but to get through the last section of far cry on hardest took me about 70 tries... the volcano bit with all the big mutants.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭Spunog UIE


    The boss cars in Rage Racer :(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,455 ✭✭✭weemcd


    Not end of game but seymour flux gave me the most trouble in ffx10. To a lesser extend yunalesca.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,679 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn

    the last boss in legend of dragoon,very hard boss.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    Granted, this may not fit here, since he wasn't the actual end of game boss, but he was close, and also, when you knew what to do it was incredibly simple to defeat him, but the mirror image of yourself in Prince Of Persia literally took me months to get past
    and all I had to do was run into him :mad:

    I was going to mention the boss at the end of Far Cry, i just couldn't beat the bar steward and gave up

    I taut that was fair easy tbh, jus get on top of the roof and its a done deal.

    I recall shnobi (or however it's spelt) for sega being bloody damn hard. one of the bosses in that was freekin impossible. specially seeing as if you died, youd have to start the whole thing again....frustration to a ridiculous level.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭Ross_Mahon


    I wouldn't call it the hardest, but fighting liquid at the end of Metal Gear Solid was funny the way he just kept coming back.

    "ITS NOT OVER YET SNAKE!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,906 ✭✭✭Joeface


    Agree with u on MGS

    Not sure it was the hardest but def endless ...Sephiroth FF7, Then Again i felt i had to use all summons just cause they were cool at the time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 144 ✭✭rollie


    Super Punchout.

    was that the one where you had to fight mike tyson at the end....he was impossibe


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭silvine


    Bowser in Super Mario Brothers and M.Bison in Street fighter II.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,693 ✭✭✭Jack Sheehan


    Last boss in Shinobi on the Master System, thought that whole game was a bitch.

    Edit: I of course meant the last boss in Revenge of Shinobi on the Mega Drive.

    Aggghhhh Alma!
    In Ninja Gaiden black. I despise her!

    Also I'm playing Conan on the 360 that has the cheapest pain in the hole end boss I've come across in a long while.
    "Ah I've finally killed the bastid, what, another respawn!! Fook this"

    From the olden days, I always found jap shoot em ups to be really unfair
    r, the final boss from Gynoug, a sideways scroller I imported broke my heart and a few joypads as well.

    Was mailed this vid a while back as well. A bit tough I reckon, I'd have him though:pac:

    I'd given up before I came across a tip - you could, with a lot of patience, blast a stool or something all the way from the resupply room to the door out onto the volcano and block it from closing. At least you could get back in to resupply then. But it was still tough.


    Also, Bioshock
    - NOT
