The Hardest Bosses of All Time - Part I of III

Everyone's been there. It's 2 o'clock in the morning, you need to get up at 7 for school, you have a four page persuasive essay due the next day that you haven't started yet, and you're still not in bed. Why? Because some infuriating boss battle is keeping you up all night! Since the early years of gaming, there have been many types of boss battles. There are the bosses who are laughably easy, the epic boss battles that make you impressed with the company who created the game, and the boss battles that make you want to stab your mom in the face. GamerHelp is proud to present to you the first in a three-part series of the Hardest Bosses of All Time!

The descriptions below the bosses are funny as crap!

"He'll eat your heart
and your NES".

"You know what they say about
dudes with big swords".- I know that one!

"What? You'd prefer a photo of a bunch
of southern old guys"?

"You know you're gangsta when a
a bird sits on your shoulder
and you aren't even a pirate".

"What? You'd prefer a photo of a bunch
of southern old guys"? Now thats what I call a good description.

MK_Red6106d ago (Edited 6106d ago )

My personal choic is Kintaro of Mortal Kombat 2, hands down that was one tough coin eating monster. Also MK1's Goro, Fallout 1&2's final bosses if your character level was low and finally the final boss of Suikoden.

EDIT: Sorry for the double post. I though there was another post but it wasn't.

Phantom_Lee6106d ago

The End is not hard...but its really fun~

InMyOpinion6106d ago (Edited 6106d ago )

I thought he was pretty easy too, had to be cautious that's all.

I'd say any boss from the NES game Trojan.

The final boss in Panzer Dragoon Orta (Xbox) was also tough.

Some of the later bosses in Final Fantasy Tactics, especially the beastmaster who had a stungun.

Ummm...Last boss in Final Fantasy VIII, anyone?

hotshot12376106d ago

nobody could EVER just get lucky and beat him. for example if somebody came in and never played mgs would never beat him

Frances-the-Mute6106d ago

but i actually was fortunate enough to beat The End in one try

poet2156105d ago (Edited 6105d ago )

Yes, The End was annoying....mainly because I wasn't satisfied with just beating him, but I had to have his weapon....sneaking up on him & holding him up for his gun was super difficult....It's been a few years, but I think I spent a couple hours until I succeeded in doing it that way.

17 years ago, Square Enix delivered the most astonishing RPG prologue ever — and it paid off wildly

Kingdom Hearts 2 is a massive sequel that improves upon nearly everything from its predecessor, but the risky prologue is what left the biggest lasting mark.

shinoff2183482d ago (Edited 482d ago )

I like this series but I wish they would tone down all the different releases. Atleast release them consistently on the same gaming machine so it can be followed. I read last week they got a kh for my damn washing machine it's super annoying. Kidding about the washing machine.

FallenAngel1984482d ago

All the games are available to play on modern platforms

Flawlessmic482d ago

Yea there all available on the playstation sub service now.

Hofstaderman482d ago

I remember buying a DS and a 3DS to play some games lol.

shinoff2183482d ago

Now but not originally and a few of them are just 3 hours worth of cutscenes so almost but not quite.

Inverno482d ago

Yea, now. But years ago you had to get a PS2, Gameboy, PSP, a phone that could play Coded, DS, 3DS. After they finally came around with the remasters they put the last collection instead on the PS4 before re-releasing all collections on the PS4. Then they decided to put very important story parts on a mobile game, and are now AGAIN putting more important story stuff on another mobile game. Not to mention the rhythm game also has story stuff. This game is a mess, and needlessly hard to follow. Who knows if they'll skip the PS4 for KH4 and instead make it a PS5 only game seeing as they made the FF7 dlc ps5 only.

I love this series but you really had to commit to it if you wanted to play it all lol

FallenAngel1984482d ago

@ shin

You say you wished all the games were on the same system and now they mostly are

@ Inv

We’re living in the now right now, hence my comment

KH4 obviously isn’t going to be on PS4.

Not saying the series is perfect, but there is a way to enjoy majority of the franchise on a variety of modern platforms

-Foxtrot482d ago

Oh totally

Like if you want to make a complicated story, cool I guess, but if you separate them onto so many platforms then how the hell am I supposed to keep up

Things were confusing before KH2 when they released Chain of Memories and that was one game, I basically just went through it on Youtube as a kid as I didn't have money and I then enjoyed KH2 a lot more as I knew what was going on.

I think that's what really hurt KH3 for me, they even added plot points from the online game they have going on in Japan, even the side plot with Maleficent and Pete with the box is from that, something which is setting up the next game. I'm sorry but I can't be excited when all this stuff is from a game I don't have any interest to play, they just assume like you've played it.

Oh remember that kid who appeared in the Keyblade graveyard fight, who helped you? Yeah he was from that game aswell, I had no idea but it seemed like a big reveal.

They really need to reboot it next but they won't.

gold_drake482d ago

i definitely agree with that.
i was so pissed that DDD was for the 3ds.

FinalFantasyFanatic482d ago

KH2 was peak KH, it's all downhill from there, if the succeeding games had been as interesting and fun as KH2 I'd still be into the series.

AzubuFrost482d ago

I don't know man. The combat's great and I've had loads of fun with KH2 gameplay, but when it comes to traveling, it is mostly just straightforward. Hell I'll have the audacity to say every world is a long pretty corridor. All I have to do is learn that fly ability and hold down the square button that way I go from the entrance straight to the exit. And they say FF13 is linear? LOL.

FinalFantasyFanatic480d ago

Still, the worlds in KH2 was more fun then I've had with any of the KH3 worlds despite the linearity (I don't remember KH3 or anything after KH2 being noticeably more open). I'm pretty happy with how traveling worked/was designed in KH2.

CrimsonWing69482d ago

I wish I could get into this series. It just makes me cringe so hard with all the whole ”anything can be done with the power of friendship!” Plus the stages themselves I always felt were lackluster.

I think the more serious parts of the story are cool, but man… I tried so hard and I just couldn’t.

shinoff2183482d ago

It took me a little bit but I do like it. I get what you mean though.

-Foxtrot482d ago

I found the whole cringe thing got worse in KH3, I don't know how or why....I thought it would have gotten a bit more mature but there was some really bad bits.

shinoff2183482d ago

I actually have not started 3 yet.

Levii_92482d ago

Yeah it definitely left a lasting mark on me.. everytime i think about KH2 and remember the prologue i almost immediately fall asleep on the spot.

Harkins1721482d ago

Takes 45 mins to do. 3 hours for first timers. It was good to learn about Roxas. Who is a fan favorite.

gold_drake482d ago

i really like the series, but it dwindled woth the release of kh2.

the "friendship is my power" was so cringe. even as a child.

after that, the story ... well lol. just a mess.

Traverse, and Twilight I can agree with but I disagree with all of the KH3 worlds especially Pirates, Pirates was the most disappointing world. Hallow Bastion gave off so much mystery, and Castle Oblivion did so too. Enchanted Dominion from BBS, and it's twisted version in the realm of darkness are probably two of the more visually appealing worlds in the series, without NPCs it unintentionally became very eerie. Keyblade Graveyard is haunting from the moment you set eyes on all the dead blades. Atlantica and Halloween Town from the first game I consider better than how they are in the 2nd.

BlindMango698d ago

Hollow Bastion/Radiant Garden and Twilight Town will always be the best

Lore697d ago

Traverse Town is nostalgia city
