What's the hardest Boss fight you've beaten
- Thread starter asmith906
- Start date
I'm not sure but I think it was evil ryu in street fighter zero 3
Maybe it would be much easier nowadays
If not that some souls boss... Pick one

I started reading this thread last.night and it swamped me with an unexpected tidal wave of nostalgia. The Four Horseman, Nax40 before the pre-BC patch in the fall of 2006 separated the wheat from the chaff globally. I think less than 80 groups cleared the raid before the patch worldwide and only about 150 total before BC. It's hard to express how much downing them meant to us. I'm still proud.
RAAM on Insane was pretty tough.
I'm trying to think of some other really tough bosses out enemies that aren't Souls related.

Is there a website that ranks boss difficulty? Like time to finish but for how hard bosses are?
Haha, I didn't get the memo about playing the DLC on NG+, so when I got the DLC, I hopped right in using my first playthrough save that I left after I finished NG.
- Trying to pre-order a PlayStation 5
- Orphan of Kos on my own after New Game+...
Ow ow ow ow ow.
I've been stuck on them for some time. I got the last one down to probably one hit, so it's just a matter of execution, but ugh, what a struggle it is to get one down and suddenly the place turns into a House of Pain music video with all the jumping.
These bitches
One of the hardest I can remember was the last boss of Metroid Samus Returns.
I was so close in just stopping the game and watching the last scenes on YouTube, I can't remember another boss that made me this angry and I basically played it all including all Souls games. 😅
But I did it in the end.

Oh! I'm not sure if she's the hardest, but one of the hardest bosses was the locust queen on insane difficulty with friends. We played for hours trying to knock that grub back down to the dirt. I ended up doing it by myself, and maybe once again with a single friend? So incredibly hard and frustrating.
I never actually beat the final boss of Mario and Luigi after like 50 attempts. Huge blue balls to not get to beat the game after getting so far. Gonna have to replay that game some day and conquer it. I'd put that one as harder than all the Dark Souls and Bloodborne bosses, plus RAAM on Insane which I've done
Giving up on this boss is one of my great shames in gaming. But I mean...c'mon.
The final boss or the bullshit arena/obstacle course that follows it? Cuz omg that was bullshit.
Also remake plz!
Classic bosses, by generation:
- seven force, Alien Soldier (MD). Loooong fight in a game in which you die in the blink of an eye.
- piranha challenge, wipeout 2097 (psx). A hard race in a dark circuit in a psx-frame rate racer.
- final boss, ninja gaiden (xbox). Alma has the fame, but this dude can be so annoying.
- artorias, dark souls (xbox360). This dude wiped the floor with me for a good couple of days.
- ludwig, bloodborne (ps4). Orphan of kos is frantic, but at least you can follow his movements, this bitch just randomly decides to fuck off to the ceiling.
- leechmonger, demons souls (ps5). It's a joke of a boss but so far is the only one who has managed to hurt me of the ones I've fought.

Beating Vergil 3 on DMD mode in DMC3 without using items was a tough one. Want to eventually get a no damage run.
Lingering Will in KH2FM at level 1 on Critical mode as well. The satisfaction of slowly getting more damage in until I won was worth it.
While not a boss, the final wave of Nobodies in Cavern of Remembrance on level 1 Critical was intense as well. A lot of variables on that long wave and a single mistake can kill you quickly.

Owl 2 can fucking two shot you from 1/2 way across the map! While sword Saint is no joke, Owl 2 was an impassable wall that made every other boss fight in existence seem like a cake walk by comparison.
Oh.. and fuck Snake Eyes Shirahagi too!
I ended up hating its hitbox SO much! And bloodborne had several terrifying bosses...defiled amygdala, headless motherfucker, abhorrent beast...yet the watchdog was pure pain.

It took me several days, over several hours to best him.
Agreed. I still haven't beat him because of that - I miss the timing of the slices and the rubble hits me every time.
In fact, the auto-save is right before that part - if I boot it up, I'm right there...but I got so frustrated back then that I don't even care about beating him now🤷♂️
Oh...oh no...
That GTA:SA mission gave me fits - it's nearly impossible!
I came back to it several years later and beat it on my 2nd try.
The only ones I could think of off the top of my head were Omega Rugal and Shin Akuma from Capcom vs SNK 2. They were hard, but unlocking them after beating them was so satisfying.
Haha i actually quit playing story missions because of this.I didn't finish the story until years later.I remember noone from my friends could beat this mission back then
A no damage run on Senator Armstrong in Metal Gear Rising's Jetstream DLC. Probably took me 50 attempts. Sometimes his falcon punch would glitch out and he'd go around you in tight circles really fast, making the camera go beserk. At that point dodging is a matter of sheer luck. Was infuriating when that happened.
I did it though, still my proudest gaming achievement. =P

Emperor Ing from Metroid Prime 2 or Aurora Unit from Metroid Prime 3 on the hardest difficulties.
Yeah, probably the Nameless King in Dark Souls 3. I had no idea you could summon other people for help and also for some reason didn't wear any lightning resistant armor. Probably took me a good 50-100 tries to finally beat this son of a bitch.
Probably the final boss of Sekiro. I didn't beat that Demon of Hatred though, he was hard as shit.
Best bossfight of the generation imo, took me more time than Sekiro's final boss. Sekiro's final boss would be the 2nd hardest for me.
I'd browse such a website and maybe filter what type of challenge the boss presents (rhythm, skill, etc.).
Yup same for me. I almost gave up several times but finally got it.
This for me but on Elite difficulty to obtain the Platinum.
Others:
Nelo Angelo 3 & Nightmare 3 and Mundus on DMD from Devil May Cry
Darklurker on Dark Souls II
The chalice dungeon queen Ythetherim from Bloodborne
