Yes, them. The Agile ones. Augh. Yeah they're pretty impossible. Even with the Stasis Auxiliary that lets you stealth around them, they can kill you like crazy.

Master Geese, in Mugen, i know he was design to be cheap, but aren't they all
You haven't seen God characters then. Like DaRK=Morrigan, JahVe, Ultimate Orochi, 2nd Death Star ...etc. Not to mention characters that simply use dev commands to become immortal and/or simply /kill the opponent.

Minecraft's creepers popped to mind right away.

Followed shortly by the light guards in AS2 and ASB who could outrun Ezio, especially later in brotherhood when to full synch you couldn't kill anyone but the entire city would chase you down.
I never had an issue with the fast guards. I outclimbed them. Or threw them back into the pursuing crowd and dashed off again.

Ezio turns faster than they do. Weave about, take as many side streets as you can. They won't keep up.

As for my contribution to the thread....elite Ultras, from Halo: Reach. On Firefight, when a drop pod came down full of them, it was either shotgun or run. I only occasionally had a shotgun. They were pretty much the only enemy I couldn't beat the shit out of. Hunters fell to my fists of fury. Ultras...not so much. Bastards.

The spiders on Dark messiah were a lot easier with a Fire Based weapon... That didn't stop me from smashing things in frustration many times before I figured that out.

Another difficult foe here... The ninjas from painkiller from snowy bridge onwards. Anyone who has played painkiller will agree here

I find parrying and using heavy attacks with the Stasis Disk work wonders when there's only about two of them.

Actually the final boss in DoA4 was worse. Jinpachi could be bested on Easy mode. DoA4 has no Easy mode. You really should try it, if you like frustration.
Don't have DoA 4, but looking at some videos, she seems like a particularly mean "cheapy", but not in the same level as Jinpachi.

Have you tried Jinpachi? Cause the difficulty really doesn't matter. He decides whether you win or loose.


See here at 3:05 [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwR4cG_ULI0&t=3m5s], when he simply decides he'll win the match. It's always a dice roll, and he decides to win you can't do ANYTHING about it. Even if you play the perfect match, he can simply pull his Deus Ex Machina move and you can't do anything about it. Easy or Ultra Hard just matters for the rest of the fight. Whether you still stand ANY chance to win is up to him, which is what's ridiculous.

Well, to be perfectly honest, pretty much ALL beat'em up final bosses are cheap as all hell. Shame :/

How do you even kill those on insane difficulty?
I completely forgot about them. Once you hit wave 40 in Horde they become impossible to kill. They one-shot you like a ************.

Yeah. Just curious, have you played it on Insane difficulty yet?

Also, love the DP. xD

Cazadores from New Vegas. It's like the designers thought to themselves "gee, what would make deathclaws even more deadly? Well, how about we give the same attack power and armor to those innocuous looking bugs, but also make them super fast, AND give them powerful poison. Oh, and since they are so small, let's have about 5 swarm the player at once." Nothing in this game is more satisfying than wiping out their nest, let me tell you...

Nah, none of the enemies are cheap. Sure it's hard enough to shape or break you and Alma will straight up ruin your shit the first time you meet her but there's no attack on there that you can't dodge.

Sorry I should have specified that I was referring to the old NES games, where enemy placement was ball bustlingly annoying and enemies infinity re spawned.

Well, before I decide to leave you alone forever now (Scott Pilgrim reference...), I want to say good luck if you try to attempt it! It's quite fun, minus the tank sections. They can burn. xD

The final boss from the new DoA. Unless she decides it is your turn to win you can not win
If you're talking about DoA 4 then my GOD i totally agree.

She has about 7 different combos, and about 4 grabs.
EVERY COMBO IS AT LEAST 7 HITS.
EVERY GRAB DOES OVER HALF A HEALTH BAR.

That put together with the fact that she is stupid fast, can teleport around the level freely, and ALL of her moves link in perfectly with ALL of her moves, and I forgot to mention, the floor and walls of the level are electrified, so when she slam you into them, you take more damage.

No amount of skill can beat this boss, it is simple luck.

Plaster Splicer - For anyone who has never played BioShock or never used the Power to the People machine in Poseidon Plaza in Fort Frolic let me explain who they are and what they do. You use the Power to the People machine and that activates the Plaster Splicers, they do not talk, you do not see them move, and if unless you have read a guide or seen them in action before you will no nothing about them. They move when you have your back turned, and when they get close enough they will attack, making you jump out of your seat, losing control of your character, and you will die from not being able to get back into your chair in time. But, that isn't the cheap part, the cheap part is, if you do not loot their corpse, but instead turn your back on them and walk away they will come back alive and stalk you again, easily catching you off guard, AGAIN, and killing you.

The thing is, I didn't know you have to loot them, so I walked off and kept on getting constantly attacked by the same Splicer until eventually I came across more and got bombarded by them all in one big ambush, seriously... how am I supposed to know you are supposed to loot them to stop them from coming alive...
