Greatest final boss theme?

[The Madman]

Another fantastic one:

I prefer the final theme from Hordes of the Underdark myself. It's just so damned... well, terrifying. It's got this great sense of oncoming horror and impossible odds. Which is appropriate considering you were fighting Mephistopheles within the burning streets of Nerverwinter as demonic hordes invaded. Very dark and brooding! That theme was just too cheerful sounding for my tastes, undeniably epic yes, but it didn't have the same sort of foreboding weight behind it as this one.


The final battle theme for Neverwinter Nights 2 was also damned epic in much the same way.


I like those sort of foreboding boss themes.

I prefer the final theme from Hordes of the Underdark myself.

Yeah, it's a great theme. I've heard it, but I never actually reached the end of HotU, so it felt wrong to mention it.

Whelp, I'm off to finally beat HotU!

Sephiroth's theme at the end of FF7 and the Suicide Mission music from Mass Effect 2 are my favourite I think.

Heres an orchestral version of Sephiroth's as I realise it was ninja'd long ago

Nobuo Uematsu is an amazing composer

Also not a end boss theme but it should be; (It's heard near the end at the final form of Ultimecia aswell I believe)

The theme from the final stage of the Lavos battle from Chrono Trigger has already been mentioned, but I kinda prefer the theme played in the battle before that: World Revolution.

A lot of my favorites have already been mentioned, but for the sake of making a new contribution...
here you go.

That's the one I would've picked as well, UNTIL I remembered this


I'm amazed no one picked that yet. Can't really explain why I like it so much, I guess it's because it reminds me of all the MGS games and how much fun and emotional they where.

That actually just made me cry a little bit! Haha, oh good times, good times...

When the HD remasterings come out I am so booking a week off work and going through them to cry all over again!
