And I agree.

One of the sickest, craziest, biggest, & awesome boss battle in God of War 3, in my opinion.

deadreckoning6664959d ago (Edited 4959d ago )

Hercules was the best IMO. The Cronos battle was bigger in scale, but that doesn't necessarily make it the best for me. The ending of the Hercules battle was one of the greatest moments this generation for me.

Montoya4959d ago

Kronos/Cronos is a great one.

My favorite is the Hercules fight in GOW3, it doesn`t get more epic than that. The music, the setting, graphics, the way the fight plays out and the ENDING combine to make one of the best fights in gaming history.

avengers19784959d ago

Actually any of the God of War 3 boss fights easily are number one. Posiden battle was great, Zeus was epic, Hades fight was Amazing, and even chasing down Herems was exciting.

raztad4959d ago

I agree with you in all but the second part of the Zeus battle. It was kinda meh. I read that at that point the game got some stuff cut off, to meet deadlines. A more epic battle was planned (actively involving a titan) but the developer team ran out of time. Sadly.

DatNJDom814959d ago (Edited 4959d ago )

Aww man are you serious?? Fuck can you imagine how that woulda been!!! Kratos Zeus and Gaia all fighting each other at the same time. What a fight that woulda been! Especially on titan mode. They probably both woulda ganged up on Kratos then kill each other off.

DigitalAnalog4959d ago (Edited 4959d ago )

The lack of Cory Balrog and David Jaffe did affect the final quality of GOWIII. It is awesome nonetheless (that speaks leagues of Stig Asmussen). But after playing Bayonetta, I can't help but feel GOWIII really didn't utilize their set pieces properly. They could've based an entire level running up Gaia's back (like the trailer) while battling Poseidon. That would've been massively epic.

That, and more titan levels/boss fights with the grand finale fighting Zeus on Mount Olympus.

Hudahudahuda4959d ago

It was also kinda obvious how they cut a level on the inside of Cronos once you go sliding down his throat it just zooms out and suddenly Kratos finds the omphalos stone stone and his stomachs weak point.

Too bad. It's obvious they had some more idea's for the game.

1. Hercules (Just wow. Everything about it, especially when they play Glory of Sparta as the song. I had to put the control down and punch the pillow cause my adrenaline was pumping hard. Then when Rage of Sparta song comes on and they are both bloodied from the fight. FUUUUUUCK!!!!! Imma go fight that nigga right NOW!!!)

2. Everything in the beginning of the game. I thought God Of War 2 was never going to be topped by any game. This game did it.

3. Hades (especially when you jump on him and start stabbing him and the trumpets start flairing while the song Duel with Hades is playing..... Gives me goose bumps)

4. Cronos (Call me when someone does this again. You were literally scaling and fighting the titan. Destroying him part by part and what a way to kill him!)

5. Zeus (Great fight. Great ending. One of the best final bosses ever.)

6. Scorpion King (On titan mode, I was there for a LONG time.)

7. Hermes (I enjoyed chasing that prick down. Then making him pay for making me break a sweat.)

8. Helios (Technically u didnt fight him, but cmon man u tore this guys head off.)

I liked all boss battles in GOW3.

frjoethesecond4959d ago

You really cant beat the japs for cool bosses. Except maybe god of war.

God of War 3.

The whole game.

The only game that comes anywhere close this year is Bayonetta.

Then again, the Asian dude in Sports Champions is a douche!

DigitalAnalog4959d ago

My gosh, the game's fight scenes are da*n creative. Kamiya really shows his talent. If only David Jaffe or Cory Balrog was at the helms of GOWIII, it would TOTALLY be a different game altogether.

The 7 Best Final Fantasy Characters: Unveiling the Legends

While FFVII ranks highly, there's more to the series than one game. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best Final Fantasy characters.

220°

The older it gets, the more I respect Final Fantasy XIII

Alex Donaldson: "Hindsight is a hell of a thing, however, and in the years since Final Fantasy XIII, my respect for the decisions its developers made has skyrocketed. In the two Final Fantasy titles since we see both the brilliance and the folly in alternative approaches - and in Final Fantasy VII Remake, we get a more nuanced understanding of what FF13 was trying to accomplish from many of the same development leads."

Einhander1972128d ago

FFXIII is actually one of the best Final Fantasy games.

I also sort of was disappointed at the time, never as much as the bandwagon. But really all the fantastic 3D rendered cutscenes and I actually liked the characters and the story though convoluted was actually fantastic and the ending was extremely emotional. So much budget and time were put into that game Square had such big plans, I actually have always felt kind of bad for how things played out.

I have been thinking for years how great it would be to get all three games on one disk for PS4 or 5.

Nyxus128d ago

I always liked this game, and I agree, a rerelease for current gen would be nice.

Shane Kim127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

Gotta take off the nostalgia glasses. It's the worst FF. Shiva as a bike, I mean come on.

Elda127d ago

Shiva as a bike is strange but saying FFXIII is the worst FF is not at all a fact, that's simply your opinion.

Terry_B126d ago

*One of the 3 equally bad FF's

DivineHand125127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

When I got my series X a year ago, I bought FF13 for nostalgia reasons but ended up being disappointed. When I first played it around the time it launched, I didn't have a lot of experience with final fantasy games, so I enjoyed it. Fast forward to when I played it again, I found that the game had many unnecessary filler moments instead of just giving us meaningful content.

The game is also very linear and a quote on the article said it best. "It is like a sewage pipe that leads to the ocean until it opens up on Grand Pulse."

The story didn't make much sense either and I believe it is my mistake as I played the FF7 remake on PS5 prior which is a night and day difference in terms of pacing, storytelling and likeable characters even though cloud is aloof.

FinalFantasyFanatic127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

Probably was a mistake to play any of the golden era FFs first (e.g. FF6 through FF10), it makes it harder to enjoy some of the FFs that aren't as good. I think FF12 was where major issues with the series started becoming apparent, and it just got worse from there.

FinalFantasyFanatic127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

I didn't really care for it that much, the only saving grace was that it had a better story than 15 (overall it was better than 15) and possibly 12, and even then, you had to read some of it through primers, like reading a book. Plus the battle system was reasonably fun for what it was, even if it was more the spectacle that was exciting for me (e.g. summoning). And to be fair, the 13 trilogy got better with every games, I still don't like Snow though.

Gamingsince1981126d ago

Ff13 is only good if you haven't played a ff before, or any other games that are decent for that matter.

-Foxtrot126d ago

It is in fact no way the best Final Fantasy game, it's one of the worst

Linear corridors, Cutscene, Fight, Cutscene...rinse and repeat

Dialogue and characters are pretty bad, especially Lightning as the main FF hero, they literally said they tried to make a "Female Cloud" and they failed.

Story was pretty awful

I could go on

I think the only alright thing that came from the game was the music.

Elda126d ago

That's not a fact that's your personal opinion. The game sold 11 million copies between its 2009 release up until 2014 including critically reviewed as an 8 out of 10 or an 80 out of 100. The game does have some issues but it's not at all a fact as one of the worst FF games.

-Foxtrot126d ago

Elda

Not just mine mate

A large majority

So….

Traecy126d ago

N4G commenters such as yourself aren't the majority. The game was well received.

gold_drake128d ago (Edited 128d ago )

i liked the game alot but i didnt like how they handled the terminology.

i dont mind reading data logs but it had soo many.

but i always loved the music and how it looked. the battle system wasnt too bad either.

but i like 13-2 more :)

i still dont understand why we never got a remaster of the trilogy

Eonjay126d ago

Xbox kinda did. Besides the video files of course which are still best on PS3 due to bluray.

Snookies12128d ago

XIII is a pretty solid game, but XIII-2 is WAY better. XIII-2 was one of the few games I decided to go for a Platinum trophy in, early on. Had so much fun the entire way through getting it too!

Eonjay126d ago

Totally agree. FF 13 was okay but 13-2 is my favorite FF game ever.

shinoff2183128d ago (Edited 128d ago )

I hated this to when it released. I haven't much liked a ff game since ff10 as much , aside from ff7remake. I decided to give it another shot on my series x since it's not on a current ps and was liking it quite a bit(just takes me some time to get over things ) until star ocean 2 remake came out I was all over that.

Square should definitely remaster it or something for ps4 ps5

KillerB127d ago

my favorite jrpg trilogy ever
