When Bosses Go Bad: The worst videogame bosses of all time

The Good Gear Guide sticks the boot into gaming's worst bosses -- from the laughably limp to unfairly hard.

Chris Jager writes: "At the feet of every great video game hero lays the battered remains of a great video game boss. They're the essential Yin to your protagonist's Yang, the driving force behind the adventure, and the yardstick by which our gaming skills are measured (and eventually mastered).

Ever since the Phoenix mothership burst into arcade parlours in 1980, the boss has been an enduring staple of the industry. Where would Link be without Ganon? Or Cloud without Sephiroth? Or Kratos without vital internal organs? (Not a 'boss' per se, but he really seems to hate those things.)
