I would like to submit...ALL of FF8. Bad gamne full of bad battles and bad story and bad system to go through it with. Good music, though, but that's not enough.

Iseria/Ethereal Queen from...most any Tri-Ace game. Special mention goes to the one in Valkyrie Profile for creating a challenge even when you've figured out how to work the skill system...when she ONLY one shots one person in a round, it's success!

Not to mention, between KH and KH:RCoM you have to fight him 7 times. Yes, seven. That's not counting the Reverse/Rebirth mode either, where you have to fight him at least twice more.
I still have yet to actually beat him for the third time in COM. I've tried so many times, but I think I'll have to concede defeat and start again from the beginning to build a strong deck. I'll pick it up again....eventually.

On a KH note, though, I'll nominate this guy from KH: Birth by Sleep Final Mix.


Once he gets out of his chair, you're screwed. The length of the video should prove that.

Mona & Lisa from the Streets of Rage series gave me a lot of trouble in the first game until I learned to stop asserting myself and just let them take the lead, and react to them. Even then, they still punish your mistakes very hard.

The third time? Just so you know, that's not even the last. Unless I said that already.. haha xD

Once you get to the final time you fight him, you NEED the sleight "Sonic Blade." No deck can defeat him except one stacked with sonic blade. NO deck at all.

I do know, that's why I've given up hope with my deck skills. I think I will just start over, as painfully long as that will be.

Thanks for the tip, though.

Edit: Captcha: are you human?

Well of course, or I would have beat him already!

I wanted to start over too, but if you just use some Feeble Darkness cards, you'd be surprised how quickly you can level up.

Fire Raid. Fire + Atk + Atk. It's like strike raid, but on fire xD Stack your deck to do 3 or 4 of those and throw an elixir or two in there and youve got a leveling deck. Spam Fire raid when enemies are lined up single-file, it goes through all of them once, then again on its way back. Really quick way to demolish every enemy on the screen.

Also, since youre not doing an actual attack, you should use Kingdom Keys for the fire raids. That way you can save CP and maybe fit in 3 Simba cards to stun all enemies before you use your elixir, because theyre usually just value 1 or 2.

You could fit some heals in there too, but it'd be more prudent for leveling up to just use Oogie Boogie if you really end up needing it.

Once you level up, just choose "Sleight." It'll take a few levels to get sonic blade, but it's a LOT easier than starting over. Once you have that, just stack up your deck with sonic blade. I had 4 sonic blades lined up with 5 cures and 3 simbas, 2 potions, an ether and 2 elixirs. All in all it cost less than 1000 CP. Give it a shot, the final battle is much more interesting, and after the fourth time you're done with riku! (Unless you decide to do Reverse/Rebirth, which i tried on Beginner and it is SO boring that i skipped it and went to KH2. Which is... also kind of boring.)

Duke's Third form from Tales of Vesperia,His first 2 forms are at level 50/55, the third form is level 80 and you really get no warning that you will unlock it(via collecting the Fell Arms) his first Mystic arte goes from manageable to one hit party kill and his second mystic arte does a near one hit kill if you're too close and heals him for about 150,000 hp.It's an endurance if your not prepared and still a bit tough if you are.


Also special mention to SMT bonus bosses like Elizabeth,who insta kills you if you don't play her way

Red Rum & Starka from Armored Core:For Answer, as they're both built around ambush tactics and are fought in an area that is both very foggy (so you can't see more than a few feet ahead) and has ECM (so your radar is useless).

Add in the extreme speed with which Red Rum can move, the fact that Starka can one-shot you if he gets a good hit in with his Sword and the buildings in the area that mean even a lock-on doesn't guarantee a hit and you easily have one of the most frustrating/hardest missions in the game, which is only made more obvious by the fact that for the 'Hard(er)' version of the mission the developers apparently just went "No idea how to make this mission worse, just add in a few enemies and call it a day."

General Tor from Iji, on maximum charge!
(You must read maximum charge in a deep, booming voice)

Seriously, though. The battle developed into a bullet hell, which is not conductive to gameplay because Iji is so damn slow.

Azazel from Tekken 6. Seriously fuck that boss, it just pisses me off.
Ah Azazel...made my friend rage so hard so many times. The trick with him is to just block nearly all the time. Only move that ever really got me is when he gets back up but he does so from falling from the sky. When you attack, you just got to keep a strong offensive. So when I used to play that game, Azazel was quite easy. Still, before I got used to his antics I thought he was so damn annoying.

It seems normal though for a fighting game to have an OP boss (slightly looking at you Seth).

that is a good point, but what is meant by overpowered is... lets say... if DR Wily (MM2) was an early boss for no apparent reason, with a difficulty spike ramming you RIGHT up an orifice you'd rather not have rammed into, that's OP.
or, in other words, any enemy in 4D mode in SO3.
or any bullet hell type game's average enemy.

Yeah, but I couldn't help but notice that more than a few people were just naming off hard bosses and justifying their OP-ness by stating that they're hard; which is why I felt obligated to point out that just because a boss is hard doesn't mean it's overpowered. Besides, my idea of an overpowered boss would be one that would have an extremely devasting attack that did massive damage and was literally impossible to dodge, or in the case of say a JRPG (or any other game with similar turn-based combat, party-oriented game mechanics) smash the entire party and has no qualms about spamming you with it; like say for example Nyx from Persona 3. I know he's supposed to be the final boss, but damn it was that uber-devastating kill-all attack of his really necessary?

I doubt that anyone didn't think that these two were major pains in the asses.

On another note, there's the Duex Ex HR bosses.
I didn't have too much trouble with them originally...and then the crystal ring shield got nerfed into the ground >_>

The Mantis Ant. If it wasn't impossible to die I would still be stuck on that thing.
That's because magic is unbelievably broken in Secret of Mana...Spiky Tiger was probably the hardest boss in the game since you started getting magic after you beat him.

You can actually beat all but one of them without firing a shot pretty easily--not counting when you have to shoot the last boss. And the one you do have to shoot for, you don't actually have to shoot the boss.

OT: The only one coming to mind right now is the military boss from Dead Rising 2, but that's just cause I was playing it recently. It's a pain to get hit by him because you get stun-locked until he's gotten a chance to shoot you then throw you across the room just to get shot again.

Hey, i know there has most likely been a million of these threads already, but i want to know who the most annoying/overpowered/cheap, etc. boss or bosses you can think of are.
I'll start this off shall i?
The bloody Black Knights in Dark souls. I know they aren't Bosses per-se, but they made me rage like a boss, so it counts.
What are all you guys thoughts??
cheers :)
The robot that guards the Boost Ball in Metroid Prime 3, especially in Hyper Mode.

Splatter House 2, the 4th levels boss. I hated this thing. I mean I HATED it. I spent soooooo long as a kid trying to beat it over and over. Then finally beat it and what happens? It transforms into some little spider thing with insane speed that's pretty bloody hard to dodge. Then again, I haven't tried this since I was young.
