Did anyone else manage to get to some weird japanese video games like parodius through that video link?

Yogg +0 / Ragnaros 25 heroic (pre nurfz ofc)

I never defeated the boss from Beyond Good & Evil. As I've defeated every other boss I've come across in any other game, he has to be my hardest boss.

Nah, he wasn't that hard. Need a green+blue combo... and more than 7 life left!

Final boss in ninja gaiden 2 , absolute nightmare

Okatsu · 20 Dec 2011 at 18:33

Ruby Weapon (FFVII), Omega Weapon (FFVIII) and Meta Ridley (Metroid Prime)

From this generation I thought Radec was seriously tough on elite difficulty. I tried and tried but could not get past the rocket launcher guys, still pains me to this day

The End - Metal Gear Solid 3 especially when doing unlock runs when it first came out

Not applicable today, theres probably 100's of videos of the encounter on youtube. Its definatly one of the best made boss fights though

I'll give an honourable mention to the "weapon" monsters in FF7 (ruby/emerald) because while they are a bloody joke once your characters are maxed out it was bloody hard / nigh on impossible with anything other than

Its a joke.

And I never understood why everyone liked the green and blue combo ... its only overkill on easy and normal difficulties, bad on hard and useless on expert.

I gathered. It amused me that he only had 7 health. Thus: Joke+Amusement=Success.

And Green+Blue is very useful against bosses as it allows you to concentrate on evasion. Other parts of the game, not so much.

On expert green + blue does half damage

This is how you do Expert:

Also on the final boss, the fireball weapon (Fire + Force) is the best choice as its the only weapon that does splash damage on all the gems.

I was going to record a full expert playthrough, but neither fraps nor afterburner work with the mega drive classics on steam

Last boss on FvIII.

Never completed the game cause of that stupid *****

Just finished dead space 2 and the final boss took me 3x1hour sessions to defeat ! nightmare !
I cant think the last time a final boss level nearly defeated me !
Anyone else got tough final bosses that beat or nearly beat them

Waaa you found that hard!? :eek:

I tend to avoid games with boss levels find them boring

C'thun was the hardest boss I ever played.

HangTime · 21 Dec 2011 at 00:35

Hard to say, I know a couple of boss fights in Shining Force 2 seemed very hard, the Kraken maybe simply because you were stuck on this raft which limited your attacks a lot.

PCDave · 21 Dec 2011 at 01:00

Anyone ever played this game?

The last boss took me aegis...Was a very memorable game growing up

Mark A · 21 Dec 2011 at 01:32

I think the only boss I've had any real trouble with was the one at the end of Resident Evil Code veronica. Only because I kept running out of ammo and no matter what I tried I wouldn't have enough bullets to kill her.

Had to go back to a much earlier save and conserve ammo.

Sunwell Plateau, Full Fat first incarnation pre-nerf M'Uru. (Spell pushback, everything)

25 People, 7 days a week raiding for 2 weeks solid.

Almost lost my sanity.
