Top 5 Boss Battles - Kami - 07-31-2007
MSNBC.COM Article: Top Five Boss Battles
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19082757/
5. Ganon from 'The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'
4. Psycho Mantis from 'Metal Gear Solid'
3. Hydra from 'God of War'
2. Sephiroth from "Final Fantasy VII"
1. Akuma from 'Karateka'
I've never heard of that last game ever, but oookkkaaayyyy you crazy msnbc guys.
What would you guys rank as your top 5?
Top 5 Boss Battles - Blind Man - 07-31-2007
Karateka is a verrrrry old game, like DOS era. It's kind of reminiscent of Kung Fu for NES, if you've played that. It was cool.
I don't quite agree with the Hydra one. It was cool, though not sure it was that outstanding. Didn't ever actually have a chance to beat Karateka so I can't vouch for that.
The Ganon fight in Twilight Princess, in my opinion, was just as facking awesome as the one in Ocarina. And I haven't gotten around to MGS yet but I've heard Psycho Mantis is nuts, so I believe that one. SO! These aren't in any particular order because I don't think I can put them into an order. Keep in mind that these aren't necessarily my favorite bosses, only my favorite boss BATTLES.
5. Ganon in "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" and "Twilight Princess"
4. The End in "Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater"
3. Sephiroth in "Kingdom Hearts"
2. Vergil in "Devil May Cry 3" (the final battle)
1. Jordan on Expert in "Guitar Hero II" (fuck you guys, it's a boss battle)
Top 5 Boss Battles - Bojack - 07-31-2007
Magus - Chrono Trigger
'Skull' Cervantes - Soul Blade (aka Soul Edge)
Chaos - Sonic Adventure
The End - MGS 3 (EPIC!)
Gorro - Mortal Kombat
/no particular order, and only my top 5... as in what my favorites are
*As you can probably tell, I haven't played that many games in my day
Top 5 Boss Battles - Krillin - 07-31-2007
I'll totally edit this list later, but:
5) Master Hand/Crazy Hand from SSBM
4) Salazar from Resident Evil 4
3) Dark Link from Ocarina of Time
2) Shadow Ganon from Ocarina of Time
1) Chessmaster from Chessmaster series (surprise!)
Top 5 Boss Battles - Kami - 07-31-2007
I think mine might be (as much as I can remember off the top of my head):
5. Mr. X - Streets of Rage 2
4. Sephiroth - FFVII (Just cause I was happy to see the bastard die)
3. The End - MGS3 (I agree, that was insane)
2. Lavos - Chrono Trigger (I beat him the first time with a last ditch effort from Frog. He casting Water 2 and then one of us was going to die)
1. Bosses from Shadow of the Colossus - That whole game is amazing boss battles, but if I had to pick just one...it'd be between the very last boss and the huge Gorilla-like one you had to climb up into the mountains to fight and you had to stab his hand and climb all over the place to get to him. That whole game is a grandiose boss fight.

Win. But Kraken or Deabeard > Saturos/Menardi.
EDIT: I need to rewrite my list. =/
Top 5 Boss Battles - Josh - 07-31-2007
1, 2, 3, 4, 5) Kefka FFVI
The end.

Do the mansex with meh.
But seriously, Kefka is (not was) so awesome throughout Final Fantasy VI that he deserves the top two spots on my list.
3. goes to Solus before the timeskip in Project: Breakdown (original Xbox game, now backwards compatible on the Xbox360) where he just whips your ass.
4. must be Majora's Mask from Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
5. maybe Smithy from Super Mario RPG, but it just as easily could have been Ultimecia from Final Fantasy VIII or or the evil Goddess from the original Breath of Fire or the White Dragon at the end of Secret of Mana or a hundred other bosses. There's too many games with too many bosses to choose only a handful of favorites. D:
edit: or the many faces of Lavos in Chorno Trigger, or the Aliens-esque behemoth at the end of Quantum Fighter (NES), or Pinky from Pac-Man, and I'm sure that the Frankenstein monster from Resident Evil 2 would fit in there somewhere.
edit again: the cloned Mega Man from Mega Man, most of the bosses from the first Mega Man X, some of the last bosses in River City Ransom, Mother Brain from Metroid, the devil from Ninja Gaiden, Mike fucking Tyson from Punch Out!!, the fish in a fish bowl from Earth Worm Jim, the list goes on and on

4) Lavitz - Legend of Dragoon
3) Magus - Chrono Trigger
2) Kefka - Final Fantasy VI
1) Dark Emporer Jet Black - Viewtiful Joe 2
Top 5 Boss Battles - Kirano - 07-31-2007
5. Bowser (Mario)
4. Dr Eggman (sonic)
3. Sephiroth - FFVII
2. The End (Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater)
1. Luca Blight (Suikoden II)
Top 5 Boss Battles - Celipa - 08-01-2007
5. Android Star Wolf and Company - Star Fox (Not that it was hard, I mean, I just thought it was kind of epic.)
4. Prince Froggy - Yoshi's Island (I had a blast with this battle. That whole game was so imaginative.)
3. Liner - Dragonball Finale (SO few of you will know who I'm talking about.)
2. The End - MGS3: Snake Eater
1. Lord Glaciel - Dragonball Finale (Seriously. He's so fucking tough. >.<)
Top 5 Boss Battles - Bojack - 08-01-2007
It's decided. The End fucking pwns.
Top 5 Boss Battles - Bujin - 08-01-2007
<.<
Finale doesn't count, Kiro. Anyway. Not quite in order, but the five on my list are there.
5.) Mortus - Comix Zone (Pretty easy to beat him, but hard to beat him AND save the girl. She died more than a dozen times during my epic completion of the game.)
4.) Kite - .hack//G.U. volume 1: Rebirth (It was just hard...he had way more defense than all of your characters combined.
3.) The End - MGS 3 (Pretty awesome. Enough said.)
2.) King Bob-omb - Super Mario 64 (The most enjoyable on my list.)
1.) Cyber Akuma - Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter (Fucking. Hard.)
Top 5 Boss Battles - Celipa - 08-01-2007
Are you KIDDING!? Finale has to count. Glaciel has given me the most epic battlesI've ever had. xD
Top 5 Boss Battles - Pigero - 08-01-2007
Sephiroth was easy as hell....wtf.
Top 5 Boss Battles - Aero - 08-01-2007
5.) Sepiroth - Kingdom Hearts
4.) Melfice - Grandia II
3.) Magus - Chrono Trigger
2.) Kefka - FFVI
1.) Shin Akuma - Capcom v. SNK 2
The last one's a shocker, but if you set the difficulty to the very top, he's a hard sonovabitch to beat.
Top 5 Boss Battles - Raditzu - 08-01-2007
These are just top 5, not necessarily the 5 hardest.
Anyway, what's everyone's deal with The End. It was an ok fight, but pretty boring compared to the rest of the boss fights in that game. The Boss was way more fun to fight than The End; throw in the Snake Eater theme song and a time limit and you've got one epic fight.
