GamerHelp continues their list of the most brutally tough bosses in video game history with part II of their three part series.
They don't make games like this anymore.
Too dated in my book. The AI is way too unpredictable to be acceptable today. It's definitely a game of its time.
I had a good time with the game. It is a product of its time. But when it came out it was a must have game for a lot of people. I wish Ubisoft would make another game in the series or at least a reboot.
Due to the lack of modern stealth games, and me constantly playing the MGS series, I've been looking for alternative stealth games to play, and went back and re-played the SC series recently. I wouldn't call SC1 or SC:PT masterpieces, there are AI issues, they're very much trial-and-error games, and that can lead to a lot of frustration. I also found the stories in this series to be boring, uninteresting, and just sloppily told. Cinematics are also of poor quality for both in-game scenes and CG cut-scenes, the soundtrack didn't leave any impression on me either.
Chaos Theory is better, but there was still a lot of room for improvement, and Double Agent (old gen ver.) was a sloppy mess that ended up a regression from CT. But still, at least they tried back then, these days Ubi-junk doesn't even try to make good games!

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
Marie Dealessandri speaks to Borislav Slavov and Gustavo Santaolalla about “the new golden age of games music”.
Trying to beat General RAAM on insane is a female dog!
I don't think Lost Planet and Gears belong there. Great games but not even in hard diffculty they are hardest bosses IMO.
But Eve of Paraside Eve certainly belongs there. Still waiting for Goro or Kintaro of Mortal Kombat 1 & 2 arcade.
Damn I'll admit defeating RAAM on insane is kinda tough, until you get the routine. Just look out for the damn bats.
I always think that Ninja Gaiden had some of the hardest bosses ever.
How about the final fight with the Nightmare from Devil May Cry 1. I remember finally beating that thing and practically jumping out of my seat in celebration.
Lord Malak was pretty difficult (from KOTOR, really awesome game). You (or at least me) had to use hit & run tactics to survive or else he would tear you apart.
Lost Planet's "Green Eye" does not belong there. It wasn't very difficult at all.
