Boss Fight
Concept »
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
Most unique/interesting boss fight?
I would have to say screaming mantis That boss fight was so ridcliously crazy
XXXXXXXSPOILERXXXXXXXX
you have to shoot her psycho mantis doll off her string dodge all these dead bodies. You had to Syrnge yourself to improve your aim and then run to the doll equip it and then use the six axis to beat her.
XXXXXXXXEND SPOILERXXXXXX
How the hell are suppose to figure that out??
It's gotta be The End in MGS3. It pretty much changed, in my view, what a boss fight could be.
Can't forget the 'fight' against the sorrow though.
"Psycho Mantis and the whole changing controller port thing.. that was pretty unique how he pretty much "reads your mind" in port 1 and cant in port 2"Yeah I was going to say this as well. This was probably the most unique to me.
The most interesting... Hmm... I'd say the fight with The Boss in MGS3... That was just... Epic.
Granfalloon from Symphony of the Night. You know, the large mass of bodies? It's the first time I've ever seen social commentary in a boss fight.
The Metal Gear Solid series has had some innovative bosses over the course of the series. Psycho Mantis has been mentioned all ready, so I'm going to nominate The End from Snake Eater. Probably the most accurate sniper battle to grace a video game.
Also, that is ignoring all of the alternate options resulting in the death of The End. I'm referring to the actual test o' patience.
Killer7's encounter with the Handsome Men was pretty unique as there were some fights that you couldn't win and some you couldn't lose. I guess that means it wasn't technically a boss fight, but either way, it's quite special.
"The entire Shadow of the Colossus game. The game has nothing but boss fights, and they're all epic."This man speaks the truth.
I like all of these mentions. But I'm going to say Fatman from Meta Gear Solid 2. After the battle (spoiler) you have to search for a bomb that will expolde soon and then you search under him and its there. Also, the Sorrow was great because when I was going down the river, I see all the people who I have killed with slit throats and gunshot wounds.
