5 Insanely Hard Video Game Bosses You Don't Want To Face Twice

Alex Gibson at IGCritic writes "Boss battles have both defined and ruined games gone by. Over the years, their execution has proved a veritable art form that some developers absolutely excel at and others fail hopelessly to master"

Phuthermarian Descendent (spelling is off) from Bloodborne. F that guy - the last boss of the main game is a joke compared to him.

DarkZane2873d ago

Omega weapon is in FFVIII, not FFVII.

ONESHOTV22873d ago

the last boss in zelda the minish cap lol i could pull out all of my hair playing fighting that last boss

blackblades2873d ago (Edited 2873d ago )

Alma from NG isn't that hard imo. Usually fighting game bosses are pain. They always an inhuman with crazy azz power or giant spamming azz. Kof12, battle fantasia, chaos code etc... even virtua fighter has an inhuman boss.

DeadManMMX2873d ago

Man I'm trying to remember. I think Omega Weapon is the one at the bottom of swirling set of steps where even the No Encounter skill doesn't work and your forced to go all the way down fighting everything before you get to him. That game is one of my all time favorites. I would love a remake.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5225d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212125d ago (Edited 25d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5224d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5224d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos25d ago (Edited 25d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani24d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum25d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman25d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim25d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum25d ago (Edited 25d ago )

I disagree Batman

Rise of the ronin sold twice as much as Dragons Dogma 2 this week...but no articles about that. It's only news if a PS exclusive is being outsold.
