Bad Boss Battles in Gaming History - Part Three

SuperPhillip Central writes, "What's worse than a bad boss battle? How about five bad boss battles? Last November we began a new segment on SuperPhillip Central, Bad Boss Battles in Gaming History. Now, it's several months later and we have a new installment to share. The rationale for our choices of awful boss encounters can be because of one or many of the following issues: they're forgettable, they're boring, they're tedious, they're in the game for no reason, they're counter-intuitive, or they're just plain not fun. After you've read our latest picks, feel free to throw in some agreement/disagreement and ideas for bosses to consider for part four."

PG man wasn't that bad. He was a pretty great boss. Really brought back the "nostalgic" feeling of boss battles.

XisThatKid3663d ago

I agree I think he should have just done more for attacks and such and it woulda been cool if "Kevin Butler" coulda did his voice or the announcers. Too bad Everything happened with that.

Geobros3663d ago

Bad bosses or ugly bosses I would say...

MasterCornholio3663d ago

Kanji's boss battle made me uncomfortable.......

goldwyncq3663d ago

I actually liked Fontaine's boss battle. It was hard and intense though that was probably due to my lack of ammo but it felt really satisfying after finally putting down the bastard. Worst boss of last gen is still Arkham Asylum's Titan Joker. It seemed like they just put him just for the sake of having a final boss and it felt really out of place as a result.

We actually did Titan Joker in our first part of this series. Great minds think alike! ;)

The 7 Best Sonic the Hedgehog Games: Racing through Time

Sonic the Hedgehog has a long and turbulent history in videogames, but which are the best games featuring the blue bur?

Rebel_Scum70d ago

Generations over Mania? Please… Generations doesnt have any new ideas in the levels/bosses.

Also a top 7 of Sonic games shouldn’t have any 3D crap and contain at least one of the 8-bit titles.

Sonic CD getting snubbed is weird. Number 1 is definitely interchangable between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

Snookies1270d ago

Nothing wrong with putting Generations over Mania. Generations had a lot more to it. Mania was just a bit too short, despite how amazing it was. They're both top-tier Sonic games though.

Profchaos70d ago (Edited 70d ago )

I don't think mania was to short given 1,2,3, knuckles were between 1 and 3 hours long.

Mania was 5 hours roughly

However i say the originals feel more repayable because they are so short

Profchaos70d ago (Edited 70d ago )

The 8 bit games were pretty bad overall do you mean the 16 bit ones

Rebel_Scum70d ago

Nope. Sonic 1 & 2 on the master system were great. Dont confuse these with the game gear versions either.

Profchaos70d ago

Top 7 for me
7 cd
6 mania
5 Frontiers
4 sonic 3
3 sonic 1
2 sonic and knuckles
1 sonic 2

Sometimes I feel like the Sonic Advanced games just didn’t exist with how much it’s always forgotten 😭

Chocoburger69d ago

Even as a Sonic fan, I didn't really care for those games, and getting the Chaos Emeralds were freakin' horrible. Even with an emulator and save states, I didn't have the desire to try. I also didn't like most of the levels or bosses either. Unfortunately, DiMPs aren't good at making Sonic games.

The movie was absolutely garbage !!!
BH needs to do better - since Halloween Ends - Exorcist , Freddy is Shyte - STOP IT !!!!

Garethvk168d ago

Didn't the creator write it? It also made a fortune based on the budget so from a business standpoint it is a massive success.
