Telltale Games

Two of the hardest boss I've found (I haven't been able to defeat them without cheating) were the Dahaka from "Prince of Persia: Warrior Within" and the Vizier from "Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones"

Unless you're REALLY good at those match-3 games,some of the bosses in Puzzle Quest can be really annoying.

VeronicanPlay · 10/14/2010, 04:03 am

Every single boss in Project Altered Beast, takes ages to learn the tactics and after that getting them right. But especially the Centipede boss at the top of the Elevator of Doom, I needed to beat him to get the Grizzly form to get all the extras. But in the end I gave up screaming and I have never touched the game since...

Most puzzle quest bosses just need the right spell/item choices and not superior Match-3 skills

ShaggE · 10/14/2010, 06:16 am

Playing Doom 2 again, I am reminded of a great truth: Cyberdemons are assholes.

And although it isn't a boss... Pain Elementals can go expletive themselves right up the expletive until their expletive explodes.

Not sure if this counts as a boss but the Rolling Stones set list on RB2 with Expert Drums. My legs and arms were killing me part way through.

Jerk.

My goodness that was hard. Fighting Ganon himself was easier then fighting that worm. Why does collecting wood give you magic?

That spider coffin thing in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days was hell. You have to kill all those growing tentacle things (which move around every five seconds) and then you beat at the coffin in the middle, but you only have like ten seconds to do that, and it hardly effects his health at all. Then when you run out of time you have to repeat the process. My DS got a couple new scars that week.

Elvenmonk · 10/16/2010, 04:01 pm

Lu Bu from all Dynasty Warriors, because one does not persue Lu Bu.

The cheapest boss character (at least among those that are actually meant to be beatable) is [insert SNK fighting game boss here].

Seriously, most bosses from the old SNK arcade games had at least one unblockable attack, standard attacks that would take off 1/4 of your life, no ducking animation so you couldn't tell if they were attacking low or high, and full counter priority over almost any other attack.

Of particular note were Geese Howard from Fatal Fury, and the bosses of Last Blade 1 and Garou.

SunnyGuy · 10/16/2010, 08:52 pm

Garou? Kain and Grant are the least SNK Boss Syndrome-ish bosses SNK ever made on the Neogeo =/ Also, Koryu>>>>Kagami.

Having just played NGBC half an hour ago, I'll have to give a special mention to Goodman. Dear lord, all of the other 3 bosses were bad already but at least they fealt beatable, I don't think I could've beaten Goodman without the 1/4th HP option.

I disagree :P Especially about Koryu > Kagami. Once you figure out his pattern (and it's really simple) you can easily beat Koryu without taking any damage. And in Garou, Grant is not hard, but Kain is super, super cheap with his counters and unavoidable supers on higher difficulties.

SunnyGuy · 10/17/2010, 10:39 am

Well, it has been a while since I last played either Last Blade so I won't argue that. I do stand by my statement that Kain is the least Snk Boss Syndrome-ish boss of the Neogeo though, the only unfair thing he has is the full life bar TOP he has on the second round and that's it.

I estimate you will die >5 times before managing to leave the first screen. The bosses in that are insane.

This post encouraged me to start playing this game.

The spike area, oh my god - in the graveyard.

I think I died, no lie, 200 times before I cleared it. Now I'm up to Birdo.

mgrant · 10/28/2010, 08:13 am

oh, god, I Wanna Be the Guy....I not so much regret playing it as I do sinking three days into it.

Woodsyblue · 01/28/2011, 05:40 pm

Seth from the original Street Fighter IV. He could teleport behind you and do an unblockable 22 hit combo into your back before you even finished your move. Thank god they fixed him in SSFIV. Now he's just hard, not ultra-cheap!

Metal Kor from Jak 2

ryannumber1gamer · 02/15/2012, 04:42 am

Also loads of kingdom hearts 1 & 2 bosses

Shadowknight1 · 02/15/2012, 12:50 pm

Moldorm from Link to the Past. The damn thing runs around in an unpredictable pattern on a small circular platform with no rails or walls to keep you on said platform. He knocks you off, you have to climb all the way back up. And his health replenishes. F**k you Moldorm.

Couldn't you have just edited that in?

As for me... I dont think Ive faced a geniune cheap boss since this thread last surfaced. I could say KH Guard Armor since I had problems there, but looking back, you CAN simply grind up a few levels and take him on.
