5 Fighting-Game Bosses Cheaper Than SF4's Seth

If you think Street Fighter 4’s Seth is a cheap final boss, you need to play more fighting games. In fact, Seth is pathetic compared to these overpowered bosses from yesteryear. Cower in fear, scrubs.

bearsfaan5048d ago

I'm really not a fan of boss fights, so my list of cheap bosses would be much, much longer. Gotta start somewhere though.

Reibooi5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

It's kinda funny. I hear people constantly saying how hard Seth is and that he is cheap and evil and impossible and all that. I never have trouble beating him with any character. The final boss of DOA 4 on the other hand makes me throw my damn controller against the wall.

Not only does she deal MASSIVE damage to you and have combos that seem to go on forever but when you think you have finally gotten her into a decent combo SHE TELEPORTS OUT OF IT!!!

CobraKai5048d ago

i felt like I get lucky when I beat her

rockleex5048d ago

NANCY the robot from Tekken 6.

jjohan355048d ago

I think the only people who complain about Seth are those who either mash buttons through arcade mode or can't land combos. Most of Seth's executions can be interrupted with jabs, standing or crouching, which can lead into combos.

Boody-Bandit5048d ago

Yes he can be cheap but he is very beatable with nearly any character. The only time I have trouble with him is on the harder difficulties with characters I have little time vested in.

Darkstorn5048d ago

Hmmm, nothing from Soul Calibur? I suppose that game IS incredibly balanced...

Redempteur5048d ago

well soul calibur bosses are cheap but some regular characters ( kilik sophitia ) are WAyyyyy cheaper ( add seigfried from soul 3 in this list )
Those 3 have techniques ..well that even the bosses can't evade and all 3 can't be stopped once started ....until the ring out ...

I've raged quit fighting game final bosses more than anything else.

Redempteur5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

don't play arcana hearts 1 then ...

the final boss use all arcana of the game at once allowing him to make impossible combos in your face .. add to that huge damages ,powering up , instant recovery , freezing time ( for you ) , putting bombs on the field , teleportation , lighting and beams ...and it doesn't have a cancel recovery limiter ...

Now that boss also has a set of regular attacks , and a very big life bar ..

That was a pain in the ass boss ..

Myst5048d ago

Psycho Gundam? Really? I thought it was fairly easy, also I'd say the Dead or Alive 4 boss should be there. Though maybe it's just me :/.

Mortal Kombat 2 AI
Edit: Is it just me or is the spam getting worse ?

MASTER_RAIDEN5048d ago

couldnt agree more. look at my avatar dammit! i havent made it passed the fifth guy in the totem pole once yet while playing on ps3. tell me heart, whats goro like?

hahahahah

xHarvey5048d ago

Took me like a week to beat the game after that it was a bit easier. The AI is so cheap you have to constantly change characters because if you use one character for to long the AI will read all your moves.

How Street Fighter IV Saved 2D Fighting Games (Ft. Maximilian Dood)

After Street Fighter II released in in 1991, it caused a fighting game explosion, both in arcades and in home consoles. But, as the decade ended, and arcades were failing, so too were 2D Fighting games. This is how Street Fighter IV completely revitalized the genre.

I'd say Blazblue helped too. Didn't care for Street Fighter 4, but Blazblue was amazing during that time. Sad that the series kind of went downhill after the first 2 or 3 games though.

DarXyde337d ago

BlazBlue was phenomenal. Platinum'd Calamity Trigger because I loved it so much. I remember buying Continuum Shift back in the day at launch for like $40. They did have DLC characters (Valkenhayne, Makoto, and Platinum at the time) and it came out to just a tad more than it would at full price. Didn't mind at all.

Great fighting game.

Snookies12337d ago

Continuum Shift was definitely my favorite. Spent way too many hours on that game, haha... Had the counters for days with Hakumen.

DarXyde337d ago

I really like Makoto, Valkenhayne, and Hazama. Super fun characters

Terry_B337d ago

Valkenhayn ..just sayin'

Terry_B337d ago

BlazBlue was the much better, more technical game..and a real 2D Fighting Game after all. But yes, since it was a big name..the characters were still popular and the game itself was good, SFIV indeed helped a lot. However, I am pretty sure the much better-selling Mortal Kombat 9 would have been done without SFIV as well..and that one truly helped to make the fighting game genre in general more popular again.

Ryuha1234h337d ago

You’re sound dumb. Blazblue was not better than sf4. You’re just saying that because you’re a street fighter hater.

A SF Hater eh? Fight me in SF 2,3 4 or 5 and you will regret that stupid comment ;)

gold_drake337d ago (Edited 337d ago )

eyyy max xD

one of the very few streamers i can actually watch without it being cringe and awful ha.

GhostScholar337d ago

The content of IV was severely lacking when it launched. It got better over time.
