Odd enemies

[FalloutJack]

Well...

...Mega Bomberman.


You had the original Bomberman series, and then Super Nintendo got Super Bomberman games, and then they made this one for the Sega Genesis involving an alien aggressor blasting Bomberworld into five pieces with five different environments. Addictive old school game that I discovered before Super Bomberman on account of not having a SNES at the time.

The gene series of enemies in persona 4. They're wiggly dna strads arranged in a way that makes the reminecact of the human form.

How do you toss out those old monsters but not mention the wolf in sheep's clothing? A man eating treestump that looks like it has a rabbit sitting on top of it. Creatures come to eat the rabbit and then get eaten themselves.

Because there were so many bad, stupid, insipid monsters that if I didn't stop after four, the post would be forty seven paragraphs long. We'd talked about how Paizo had tried to redeem a few monsters and that's one of the ones they tried to save. Your mileage may vary over whether they succeeded.

I'm a big Paizo fan, so I loved the Misfit Monsters book. They did a good job of making even the flumph kind of cool even if he would still be worthless in an actual fight. Their version of the wolf in sheep's clothing just animated whatever it had eaten last, so if there was a rabbit sitting on top it was a zombie.

The Gonarch from Half-Life comes to mind.
Heaven's Smiles from Killer7, too. Specially those rolling orbs ones.

 

[Innocent Bystander]

I seem to recall a gang of old women in either New Vegas or Fallout 3. They attack you with melee weapons such as frying pans, rolling pins and, a single kitchen knife. They only appear once and when you kill them that's it (and that's only with the Wild Wasteland perk). I want to fight more senile delinquents...

Oh yeah, apparently they're a reference to a Monty Python skit.

Yep it's a reference to the Hell's Grannies skit that was awesome.

OT: The ones that come to mind for me are those poo-like things from Blue Dragon. Seriously what was with those things.

Oh yeah, I was going to mention those. And let's not forget the cyborg T-Rex that farted out the giant Poo Snake thing.

Final Fantasy has a load of weird enemies....

Spoiler

Enjoy sleeping tonight.

 

[XMark]

I could never figure out exactly what the "Droll" enemy in the original Dragon Warrior was supposed to be. Couldn't even guess what kind of shape it took from its 2-dimensional image.

 

[SirPlindington]

Snip'd

I actually find the father mother kind of adorable.

 

[Jolly Co-operator]

I've always thought that the Mr. Friendly enemy that was considered for Half Life was pretty weird (look it up on the wiki if you don't already know about it. It was definitely both an odd and technologically ambitious idea). However, I'm not really sure if he counts, seeing as he was scrapped before he could actually be put into the final game.

I also think that the Nu from Chrono Trigger are also pretty weird. There's just something about derpy bipedal mohawk frogs that seems odd to me, I guess.

 

[SirPlindington]

Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth had the Shoggoth


SCP: Containment Breach had SCP-173

Spoiler: SCP-173

The Binding of Isaac had, well, everything.

I've never understood why SCP-173 was so popular. It's weird looking, but not much else.

 

[Jfswift]

The Vagrant in Dark Souls. I've only ever seen it once but they're strange looking, like an angry ghost clam with tentacles.

 

[triggrhappy94]

I think I know a good one.

Spoiler: The final boss from Kane and Lynch 2

I think I win.

Looks sort of like a snail to me. Slug? One of those.

Odd enemies thread huh? I'll bite;

Geth Stalkers from the first Mass Effect. Little jumping bastards that shoot lasers from their eyes and jam your radar, plus they love inflicting status effects. They never appear outside of game 1, and nobody ever mentions them again.

Seriously? So, enemy variety goes DOWN in the later games? One more reason not to play them

Ethics? In Saint's Row? How quaint.

Dude, I returned my copy of SR3 two days after the launch, and I got that that reference. Bad Jack!

Those bastard rubber men from RE4 were weird. It's not often I see something become MORE dangerous without its legs.

Though I think plain damn weirdest enemy ever has got to be ANYTHING from Tonic Trouble. Alcoholic Biker Viking? Check. Magic Mushroom? Check. beartrap-billed rubber duckies? Check. Militant communist vegetables? check!
