Top 10 Video Game Boss Battles!

[@fIorapetals]

I'm so glad I found this video again. It's been YEARS, but the nightmare fuel that was the Silent Hill section has never left my brain enough that I don't think about it from time to time. It scared me so much I never wanted to come back to this channel... But now that I'm older the nostalgia makes me really happy (and I can handle horror much better now). So thanks for making this video, it made me a really great memory and I'm happy to be back.

[@mr.peepeedoodookaka6229]

"I don't plan on stopping" -dookieshed 😪

[@Olkard]

I did not expect to see The Lich King on here, kinda caught me off guard and I smiled more than I should have. I love the The Lich King so much, but barely any 'Top 10 Bosses' lists have him on them. You're proving to be my favourite Poképlayer on KZbin, definitely reaching my top 10 KZbinrs of all time. :D

[@osieericson9795]

I personally loved the Megama Zero 3 final boss battle, when it's revealed that Zero is a copy - has been a copy for the past two games, and you never knew it until the very end of the third game - and then Zero has to fight Omega and destroy his real body in the process. But I can't condemn your choice of the battle between X and Zero, because that was definitely an epic boss battle as well - probably even more so, considering that the players have had a longer time to get attached to both characters involved in the fight.

[@demi-femme4821]

Omega is great, but could you imagine if his final form was the version from ZX?

[@verongnome7769]

My first reaction to the #1 Boss Battle was "Wait, what?" - I'm unfamiliar with the Metroid franchise despite having lived in that era. But by the end of the video, you made it my #1 Boss Battle, too. Great narration. Awesome picks. Will definitely play Silent Hill 3.

[@ziqi92]

my personal favorite is easily the final boss battle in paper mario ttyd. you have to battle a possessed peach, the tone of the whole situation is unusually dark for a mario rpg, and a few turns into the battle, you wind up powerless. only the support of everyone you've met and saved throughout the game saves your ass dragonball z style, then the final battle really begins. it was a hard boss battle and had amazing music.

[@andrewsteltenkamp6673]

Mr. Freeze from Batman: Arkham City. So good. So, so good. If you've played the game, you know what I'm talking about.

[@jaylinbates1839]

I loved it to

[@kristianflorencedecastro6142]

i've beat him so many times that i've lost count ...and it's still so fun to fight him XD but it kinda seems to easy though(even in hard mode) especially if you beat the game so many times now haha

[@JC-ky6mp]

GoddamnLight FUCKER Have you played New Game Plus on hard mode? The fight is nigh impossible.

[@justagundam]

I didn't listen when you told me not to play Silent Hill.......I haven't slept soundly in a while.

[@jobooiii]

Watching some old dookieshed videos. Feels good and bad at the same time :/

[@TheBlanketMan]

I really liked Zant in Twilight Princess, the story leads you to believe he is the mastermind, when really he is a mental pawn on the board. The fight features imitations of previous boss battles along with interesting music remixes of the battle. His fighting style is also very unpredictable.

[@009-u1h]

Primal Dialga? If your going to pick any Pokémon boss it has to be him

[@PikaSquadFilms]

dialga doesnt have primal form

[@joshuaslocombe7999]

PikaSquadFilms it does, it only appeared in the mystery dungeon franchise.

[@lookslikedekulink]

PikaSquadFilms It is sometimes referred to as "Shadow Dialga" or "Dark DIalga". It appears in PMD2. Here a spoiler,why it is so awesome. It is the insane/corrupted version of Dialga after the Time Tower(or however it is called in english) collapsed and the time stopped. We are talking about a future,that you (the player) want to stop. So you fight Primal Dialga at the top of the currently collapsing tower,it is almost at the state of Primal Dialga. The fight itself is pretty hard,especially the Roar of Time,that deals massive damage to you and your partner. Better stock on revive seeds,because you gonna need them.

[@paultaylor1032]

How about darkrai

[@Detonexploder]

+lookslikedekulink Omg, I remember beating him back when I was like 9 years old! But I had a weird bug: the game crashed whenever I had beaten him and when my team touched the item they had to grab (I think it was some sort of artifact) after the fight, which made it actually a very memorable fight for me. Unless this was the intentional ending (which is more something for a 2015 indie than for 00's Nintendo to do)...

[@ShotgunMcgee666]

My favourite is definitely Malus from Shadow of the Colossus. His depressing unique boss theme combined with the atmosphere and the reasons behind the fight, it is truly one of the best. Other fights include Shinobu Jacobs from No More Heroes. She was, and is, the only boss of them (I haven't faced Henry yet) that has given me a truly fair run for my money. I never did beat a single No More Heroes boss in one try but Shinobu took me about 4 tries. But not once did I ever get angry, I just felt the drive to beat her. Unlike Bad Girl who was a poor excuse for the number 2 ranked fight. I'd rank Wheatley above GLaDOS just for the sake of Wheatley's character. Yeah with GLaDOS it was revenge but with Wheatley it was more trying to get him back to his senses after he's gone insane. And after the fight he is genuinely sorry for his actions. And in space. the final fight with Metal Kor in Jak II was a fantastic fight that really put what you knew to the test and it was sweet vengeance for his betrayal. The Xemnas and Xion fights in Kingdom Hearts II and 358/2 Days respectively were both fantastic fights as well.

[@dariuslambiri2118]

beating azuroth in ratchet and clank a crack in time but it is also a sad ending too also beating n and genesis in pokemon black

[@motgustufson6224]

oddly enough my fav boss fight is phantom gannon in windwaker i just love the music and batting those balls of electricity back at him is just so fast passed and amazing!

[@Crash__Down]

Either Vlitra or Charkravartin from Asura's Wrath, visuals, choreography (especially Charkravartin), build up (especially Vlitra) and how down right insane the scale of the battles are is just... Perfect

[@SoloFenrir]

Koloktos from Skyward Sword. Most fun battle ever.

[@blackphoenix9000]

The true best boss is either going to be Jeanne (4th and final battle) or FatherBalder, both of which are from Bayonetta and are some of the most over-the-top fights I've ever seen come out of Platinum Games' masterpiece of a game known only as Bayonetta. Jeanne's fight constantly changed the arena. From a missile launch facility, to the windows on a skyscraper, to RIDING A MOTHERF**KING MISSILE, TWICE, and ending it on a rooftop garden. She's the only other Umbra Witch who survived the Armageddon, and is only fighting to help Bayonetta bring all her lost memories back, despite sounding like she purely hates her with a burning passion. Also, you are treated to a fantastic song known as "Blood And Darkness" throughout the fight. As for FatherBalder, he's the last of the Lumen Sages, and one of the key components for the resurrection of the Creator, Jubileus. His fight takes place in the wreckage of his heavenly office, which is now falling from the top of a 1,000 story building at ALL TIMES. He also bombards Bayonetta with Lumen magic and even tries hitting her with satellite lasers and even other skyscrapers. He gets more and more hectic the more of his health you cleave, making the fight tougher and tougher as you go along. He's also the ONLY character in Bayonetta to survive Bayonetta's Climax Attacks. TWICE!!! And by survive, I mean he literally and brutally MURDERS the climax attacks. He meets his end when Bayonetta deals him a headshot with her lipstick. The last words he heard were "Don't fuck with a witch!" Before he met his untimely demise. Also, there's another beautiful so playing during this fight called "You May Call Me Father" playing throughout. How neither of these fights made it onto the list, I'll never know.

[@classifiedhomepage]

TheSaintOfPancakes 23 Yep, in a way

[@kristianflorencedecastro6142]

that shit was beautiful and manly at the same time T_T

[@bansamnow9521]

All the bosses from Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter are my favorite.

[@bansamnow9521]

+Sam Schafer And Miracle Matter from Kirby 64. Not Zero. Miracle Matter. Fhyte me.

[@elitelikescheese4259]

Meh....those bosses where to easy, wilfre was just the biggest let down and the ending was horrible. The first game was brilliant though. Frostwind was way better. Deadwood was better. Angler king was amazing compared to that thing in the tank And Wilfre was much harder with his scorpion.

[@Kalebfenoir]

The description of the Super Metroid end fight was pure poetry in my opinion. Played a lot of games, but that one is so damned powerful for me. That moment of shock when..it...happens...and then the vengeful wrath you unleash afterward; Perfect. I'm glad that was number 1.

[@SongbirdOfficial]

I love when a game gives part of the story during a boss fight like in Super Metroid. Not like dialogue at the end, but cutscenes and banter during the battle, maybe even adding some battle mechanics into the cutscene.

[@LemonMoon]

My favorite boss fight was Defeating Wallace in Pokémon Emerald with my Swampert and Rayquaza, since Pokémon Emerald was my first Pokémon game. It was back When I was a Pokémon noob, that was back when I only trained my starter and only used on Pokémon, until I got Rayquaza

[@Monroah]

One word, Blue.

[@CStrike9969]

#nostalgia

[@CaptainBoomeraang]

I'm a little disappointed that giygas or giegue from earthbound didn't make the cut, those boss fights were truly amazing to me. Overall good list though.

[@xander2302]

Hades from kid icarus uprising

[@TheTrueBighead]

I've never played a Metroid game but that boss battle and everything leading up to it sounded AMAZING.

[@mydragonhoardisyarn1839]

my favorite is the last boss battle in heavenly sword. it not only looks epic but it's just plain fun to play over and over again!

[@cat8752]

Ummm where was the kirby footage?

[@franklinturtleton6525]

My list would be Odolwa from Majora's Mask Kingdom Hearts 1, Sephiroth Starfox64 Andross Jasaad from Drakan : the ancients' gates Devil May Cry 3 - Vergil Dark Souls, Ornstein and Smough. Castlevania 1 - Dracula Asura's wrath final boss against Chakravartin Pokemon Gen 1 rival (number 2 is a perfect place for this, it was both challenging and nostalgic) Malak from star wars Knights Of The Old Republic

[@SuncrispCore]

Gwyn, Lord of Cinder from Dark Souls is my number 1 FromSoftware tried to make a boss that you could defeat with your own style of play, some call him easy, but that is true for every boss of every game if you know how to do it (or you parried him). You enter through the fog gate with the absolute confidence of clearing out some black knights and Gwyn immediately lunges towards you, no exposition or cutscene shit, and you feel adrenaline with only you, Gwyn, and the Fire lighting the dark. Gwyn holds the embodiment of the lore as the hollow shell of a truly great god, who sacrificed his own humanity to prolong the Age of Fire (if that is good or bad, dunno). Not to mention his theme is mesmerizing, a piano duet that I could (and have) continuously listen to for hours.

[@danielpayne1597]

Fantastic list, I need to play X5. Couldn't agree more on Yoshi's Island's Bowser. Gary from Pokemon took me by surprise when you listed him.

[@vopop30]

Dhoulmagus of Dragon Quest VIII is a standout encounter. You finally get him cornered after chasing him all around the world, which amounts to about 40 hours. He fights by summoning two copies of himself, and instead of having to kill the real one, you need to kill all three. When that fight is finally done, he (and the battlefield) transform into something monstrous and most likely kills your worn-out team in all of three turns. Most JRPG's would then go to a scripted event where the villain then just goes on his way while the heroes revel in defeat. Not this one though, you have to win this fight, and you have to fight hard to earn that win. And then it turns out that beating him is only the halfway point in the game!

[@AriesPlaysMinecraft]

(My Opinion) #2 Should have been The Final battle with Red in Pokemon G/S/HG/SS :\

[@cdsimmons27]

You are red you fight blue

[@PrincessGoth574]

I think I need to play Super Metroid...

[@toxicastigator]

It’s literally free rn for Nintendo Online. That might be your best way to check it out

[@mobslayer9000]

Tabuu from Smash Brothers

[@appelpower1]

He was brutal, I agree.

[@evangibbs7467]

That one explosion from his wings ALWAYS devastated my roster

[@appelpower1]

Evan Gibbs Strangely, I managed to accidently avoid it several times. It was rather helpful when I figured out why I could avoid his attack (it was called Off-Waves, if I recall correctly?)

[@iamabird1939]

appelpower1 meh it was challenging but there was no drive to kill him he was just some random who showed up last minute

[@Glace88]

One of my favourites is the final boss of Guitar Hero III, Lou. The boss battle is difficult in itself but has an amazing track to play to against your own manager! I played it and i didn't see it coming from a mile away!

[@HELLBENTSOUL]

You should have an honorable mentions list. I would like to say one of my favorite boss battles was the final battle against Vergil in Devil May Cry 3. The music that was played, the difficulty level, all of it was amazing!

[@kalebjones9553]

the bird colossus in shadow of the colossus. Or sans from undertale.

[@ciarankelly3726]

Giygas would make my list. So would Claus from Earthbound and Mother 3 respectively.

[@Kuma5655]

Yeah Giygas wasn't that hard ,but it broke down the barriers between Ness and the player. Really everyone was a participant. Claus was a beautiful boss (though I never cried from the game it scarred me). I haven't finished Mother 1 ,but so far the series is awesome in so many ways

[@ciarankelly3726]

Bartholomew Peter Mother 1 is fairly difficult near the ending. Spoiler Alert: Except the part with eve.

[@slightlyuncomfortable]

A fellow Mother fan!? Yay! I'm not alone!

[@slightlyuncomfortable]

BTW, you have earned a sub!

[@RedMageJoey]

ZarolTheFlame Though I haven't play Mother 1 to 3, I agree. Also: Let's bring Mother 3 to America! Are you all with me?!?!

[@evangibbs7467]

So you're saying that battling asshat (although rewarding and satisfying) was better than the battle in gold and silver with red? Bullcrap

[@Dominicus23]

Opinions buddy, opinions

[@jackdullboy8723]

Evan Gibbs red wasn't really a character, he's just you, he's just a guy with a lot of strong pokemon

[@evangibbs7467]

My point exactly, you fight "yourself", which makes it nostalgic and difficult. fighting blue was also intense, especially with that alakazam, but the red battle just took the cake for me.

[@jackdullboy8723]

Evan Gibbs oh yeah, i will admit. I even tried to grind hard so most my pokes will be at least level 79 or above and he still kicked my buttcrack. Specially the starters. Pikachu, lapras and snorlax were just either really tough or really fast. The starters were both. But still, red is still you.

[@vondas1480]

Probably because he considers it post game

[@panterrorrex1080]

Big Arm boss from Sonic 3 & Knuckles is definitely one of my favorite boss fights. It also had a kick ass theme to go with it.

[@gildrop]

i have to agree! Psycho Mantis was a super unique fight that will always stick with me

[@Logos_Loki]

red or cynthia(shes EXTREMLY hard to beat)

[@monagram116]

[@DarkSkullGamingU]

Not to toot my own horn here but I beat her 2nd time during Platinum. But if you are talking about the times you see here AFTER the Sinoh Region then you're right.

[@Logos_Loki]

DarkSkull011Gaming4U in platunuim i tried and tried and TRIED but it took my an exp boosted infernape to beat her

[@DarkSkullGamingU]

I chose torterra #favpokemon so Iguess he helps

[@Logos_Loki]

DarkSkull011Gaming4U I started w/ empoleon, infernape waz traded

[@slitheryjuggler94]

In no order: Nyarlathotep (Persona 2: IS/EP) & Nyx (Persona 3) Ganon (Ocarina of Time) Lucifer (SMT: Nocturne) Masked Man (Mother 3) Luca Blight/Neclord (Suikoden II) Liquid Snake (MGS1) Vergil (DMC3) Kefka (FF6) Dhoulmagus (DQVIII) Odio (Live-A-Live)

[@slightlyuncomfortable]

Thank you for including Claus!

[@Zekrombest]

Guy Kazama Nyx was absolutely awesome and one of the most memorable gaming bosses. Astaroth from Shadow Hearts 2 is also one of the best

[@AssasiCraftYogUscus]

bane arkham origins

[@Dsepshun]

I cannot tell you how happy it made me to see The Legacy of Kain series included on this list. It is probably my all time favorite game series and it seems like most people haven't even heard of it.

[@munromister777]

My favorite is in Pokemon Gen 3 (any of the three main games) where you go and fight Norman, your father. It's really satisfying, cause not only do you actually have a father, but you've beaten him and he acknowledges you. It's a touching moment.

[@ZaWarubro]

Seriously, I feel as though this guy has only ever played Legend of Kain, Metroid, Megaman, Links Awakening, FFVII, and Pokemon. Sephiroth is child's play compared to the battle with Kefka. Hell, Melbu Frahma from Legend of Dragoon was more intense than Safer Sephiroth. I understand this his opinion, but after watching about 5 of his videos centered around the same games, a nerve just snapped in my head. This guy needs to broaden is game library.

[@dracocrusher]

Melbu Frahma was awesome, but it just kept going and going.... In my oppinion, the best Boss Fight in Legend of Dragoon was freaking Lloyd! Not the first encounter, the REAL one. It's up to you to stop this guy once and for all like it was always meant to be. Dragoons vs. Winglies! Your first instinct is to transform and do as much crap as possible but then you quickly realize he can instantly kill your transformation. That moment was just insane.

[@XenogearSolid]

While I wouldn't say Sephiroth is my favorite FF boss (hell FF7 itself has several games in the series above it in preference of mine) and as great as Kefka was as a character (in this regard he's far superior to Sephiroth) and the lead up was nothing short of awesome, the battle can be won in a couple rounds or less. Sephiroth wasn't exactly hard but I don't get how how he's child's play to a boss that poses no threat even if you never grind.

[@michaelrate7693]

if your just talking about the battle itself, not the lead up to it, then the Final Fantasy entry should have been SHINRYU (FFV) walking through the final dungeon, see a treasure chest - BOOM - (and for those that don't know, he's much stronger than the final boss (Exdeath). If you include the in-game buildup, then Edea (FFVIII) not the toughest ,but the conflicting emotions of the characters makes it so memorable, and the first few lines of dialogue after the fight just cement that in stone. O, and, jrupert1, neither Kefka nor Seph are any kin of challange, regardless of grinding. (the Godesses and Jenova SYNTHESIS respectively were more of a challenge.)

[@MrMGR1986]

You must not play Metal Gear

[@Jooju413]

I agree , i love The end and Physico Mantis

[@Jooju413]

Now that That is a boss !. Such nostalgia.

[@neonclanxbox]

I liked that boss too but i prefer the final boss from mgs3 XD

[@TheFusionWarrior]

Mother is the best story in gaming history, and Kefka is a billion times better than sephiroth, easily the lamest boss of all time.

[@midshipman8654]

That's debatable, Mother does have a truely epic story, but I personally feel that the overarching story of Metal Gear is the my favorite gaming plot. Please note that i said favorite instead of best, because best is a very general statement and can be subjective. You must be able to quantify something (Plot can't effectively give exact measurements) and refer to what 'best' means(as in most complex? most moving? most influenza?).

[@midshipman8654]

Jackson Almodobar *influential (damn you autocorrect!)

[@jacobmonks3722]

My personal favorite story is Metroid purely because the story doesn't matter. With a couple of exceptions, Metroid is gameplay first, everything else second, and this is a brilliant opportunity to tell a story through gameplay, which no game does better than a Metroid game. These games masterfully tell a solid story through subtext and very little dialogue. It's so well done and it makes these games completely unforgettable (even though there are 1 or 2 we would like to forget).

[@juistice-thejuiceofjustice]

Beating Olmec in Spelunky, both the classic one and the HD version, is one of the best moments I've had in my gaming career.

[@jonmyers9088]

I fully agree with you on number 1. That moment when you realize its the baby metroid and it sets you up to take out mother brain....simply brilliant.

[@Briodocus]

Some of my favorite boss battles are Asch (Final) from Tales of the Abyss, SA-X from Metroid Fusion, Nightmare from Metroid Fusion, and the Twin Zombie Dragons from Castlevania: Circle of the Moon

[@jaredkeeton8088]

My favorite boss battle is Cyrus from pokemon in the distortion world. The setting, music, and pure power of Cyrus's team makes it one of the best because the world is brinking on this fight.

[@Maren617]

You made a very convincing case with your no. 1! I had never even played a Metroid game and now I know I was really missing something good there. You appreciating this boss battle makes me think you would LOVE Dark Souls. 1, not 2. You fight a huge giant wolf defending what you find out is its late master's grave with his sword in its mouth (Sif). You fight Ornstein & Smough 65 times because damnit last time you almost had them. You meet a crazy undead knight who's obsessed with the sun and helps you with boss battles so much you end up loving him and calling him "my Sunbro!" Until he finds a sun maggot, goes insane and you have to end him. Unless... you've entered the secret hidden pyromancy covenant of a girl that is half spider and doesn't know you've just killed her sister and whose speech you can only understand while wearing a particular ring, find a secret passageway, find the sun maggot before he does and kill it. But then his search goes on forever. And so on and so on other epicness. Seriously, check it out. It's so worth it. I recommend Epicnamebro's channel for all the info and lore you might want.

[@Make_Shift13]

I just love how Red beats Blue and becomes the new Pokemon champ then just walks away from it all because he doesn't want it. Then he goes off to train alone with his Pokemon in a mountain and waits for the next champion to come fight him.

[@Kalebfenoir]

I loved running into the Mega Metroid. I remember at one point I figured out a way to confuse it so that it hesitated to even attack you. I think the trick was literally to kneel and not aim your gun at it. The thing circled in front of me for about a minute and half (where other playthroughs it just munched me right after letting go of the leaper), and was making all kinds of puzzled noises. It couldn't figure out why I wasn't running away or attacking it, and actually spent a little bit of time debating on whether to eat my head. XD

[@Xelean]

2 of my favorite boss battles is Kyogre in pokemon sapphire and the final bosses in sonic adventure 1 and 2. Fighting kyogre was amazing since after he awakens there is a huge storm and you have to stop him but when you finally fight him you are greeted with an cool music that really fits in with the chaos that is going on. For the bosses in sonic adventure 1 and 2 its mainly becouse the moment finally arrives and you turn into super sonic and know its time to end this but then the music kicks in that also gives the feeling that you have already won.

[@GameBoyBlueATGMAIL]

You had collected all these powers and or beasts for use at your disposal, and it was the ultimate test of an awesome(awesome as in full of respectful awe) game that combined RTS and touch screen elegance in an engaging and clever package.

[@Kujakuseki01]

I love that you have as much love for legacy of lain that I do. I also hope the rest of the world discovers it.

[@JimGuitar-JJ]

I would agree that 1 was a epic one, but I would suggest doing a top ten for videos with great plots. Metroid fusion had a plot with all sorts of plot twists.

[@KeeperOfUntoldDreams]

Perfect Chaos from Sonic Adventure 1! it's my personal favorite boss battle I have played in a Sonic game so far, fought to one of, if not, my most, favorite songs in any Sonic game.

[@Euclidiuss]

My all time favorite boss battle in all of gaming is Soul of Cinder from Dark Souls 3. That boss is SO FUCKING AWESOME!!!

[@Sin_Alder]

Gotta say, my favorite boss battle may quite possibly be Majora in Majora's Mask. Although I guess it's tied with the final colosus in Shadow of the Colosus... Both of those fights not only felt epic while fighting in, but felt amazing to finally beat.

[@ZanicScorchi]

I really liked the final boss from Paper Mario 2: The Thousand Year Door. The Demon Witch thing. The pure epicness in that battle is awesome. And it's a very challenging battle at that.

[@ZombiesOnlyWantAHug]

I'd say the battle with Satan at the end of Catlevania Lords of Shadow is my favourite. It had an absolutely brilliant plot twist that's one of my favourites in a game to date and the battle itself was intense and difficult.

[@sakebottleswing]

That boss fight. All the feels. I'd never before cried during a boss battle until Mother 3 came along.

[@JBX9001]

The boss battle I enjoy the most to this day is the fight with Magolor in Kirby's Return to Dream Land! It was just... awesome in every single way! That battle defines the word epic!

[@AnnoyingSquib]

I still love the Great Mighty Poo boss battle from Conker's Bad Fur Day. Not the hardest fight but definitely the most memorable and has an epic song.

[@RitcheyRich]

I really liked Ganon from Ocarina of Time for many different reasons. You can barely see the thing you're fighting, it's dark, the music is intense, and then, he's introduced. He doesn't even need a title. Just Ganon. Then you fight the fight so many people remember and love

[@GreatHylian]

Lavos from Chrono Trigger was just one of those epic boss fights. HE has sooooo many forms but it was worth every second.

[@TheRedRobin96]

I think the final boss battle with with Jack of blades in the chamber of fate in Fable 1 was pretty epic. The fight with him in his dragon form in the Northern wastes Add-on was pretty pulse pounding but it didn't have the whole "stopping the end of the world" feel to it. Not to mention if you are like me and you beat the game long before the northern wastes version came out during your fight in the chamber you were fueled with anger at seeing your mothers throat slit and wanted vengeance for not only her death but also the death of the Guildmaster and the burning of the Hero's Guild.

[@kurisu7885]

One of my favorites was the second to last stage battle in Brutal Legend, with the three towers, where you need to beat down the health of the two heads and then drive up a ramp and ram your car into them, and then you crash into the middle head to face Doviculus, and when you finish him off Eddy lets out his war cry of "DECAPITATION!" as he cuts off Doviculous' head and sends it fallng into the Sea of Black Tears

[@MrKhaos0001]

Prince of Persia warrior within, Dahaka. That fight is everything, after so many escapes you finally get the weapon that can kill the SoB. Many people complain about this game, I though it was epic, the escapes from Dahaka porsuit is still one of the best video game moments I can think

[@claireivymilligan]

Twinrova from OoT. Awesome fight, epic music.

[@Kujakuseki01]

Thank you for mentioning Legacy of Kain. The series is immensely under-appreciated. I agree with you that Legacy of Kain has video games' greatest storyline, and I'm quite sad that the story won't be finished, and that voice actor Tony Jay is dead.

[@bri564mc]

Definetly the finale showdown beetween link and ganon in zelda wind waker whith the music the hype the battleground its truly epic and the fact that zelda even helps you take him down id the perfect fanaly to my favorite game of all time

[@pizzweak580]

I love the baby metroid! It's so cute and tried to protect you, but it dies :( It leaves a sad memory of an attack, but it was enough to shatter the mother brain

[@PVTP3ngu1n]

So glad to see Yoshi's Island 3 on here. I feel like that game never gets the credit it deserves. Good work dookieshed :)

[@Nebulosation]

Blessed be the metroid series... I love those games. Every single one of them.

[@Miquill]

(Disclaimer this is not hatemail) I'm hating watching your videos, it's making me feel like I have never been a gamer. All these games I have passed up, or have been less attached to. You amaze me, definitely subscribing.

[@Agent0FluffyBoxOfVoicesCom]

One of my favorite boss battles that I can remember is from the Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. It's the dragon boss. It felt good to slay it and it is a challenge to fight. Plus it's fun for me to fight it.

[@IImWishing]

final fantasy 7 dude. sephiroths last forms blew me away especially his last fight(1 hit ko). supernova was also probably one of the greatest moves of all time :).

[@nathanielscott4413]

i remember when i first fought mother brain in supa metroid. I thought it was over after you destroy it in the container like you do in the first metroid and metroid zero mission. when it got the body, i was freaked out and also felt weird because i did'nt understand what the heck was going on. but in the end. It felt good giving the mother brain a wipe lash lol.

[@Ghi102]

Megaman Zero 3 on the gba has the best megaman boss for me -> fighthing yourself in a destroyed battlefield! So awesome!

[@CosmicDuskWolf]

If you don't mind old sega games I recommend phantasy star 4. One of my favorites of all time is the Profound Darkness fight. And unless you gain a particular spell you cannot beet her.

I love the fight between Red and Gold, when I first did that at age 7 I thought it was the coolest shit I had ever seen and still to this day think it's one of the coolest fights in any series. Though I will say, the boss fight between Sephiroth and Sora in Kingdom Hearts 2 is amazing, and though it isn't quite the same style. Ornstein and Smough will never leave my mind as being one of the hardest and most memorable boss fights ever.

You missed the final battle in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days against Xion. I'm not talking about in Agrabah, I mean in TWilight Town in AN INVISIBLE WALL CAGE! And the scene it leads to after is so very touching that you cry for the poor girl because she's a clone that didn't even live a full year.

Giant Baby Bowser scared the crap out of me when I first faced him when I was way younger. I will forever remember his image.

[@MakoNoyo]

My favorite boss battle was the final boss fight to Persona 3. The music fit perfectly to the situation and what happens after the fight was also amazing. I highly recommend the game to anyone. Its my all time favorite! :D

[@zehern22]

Nyx avatar and nyx herself from persona 3,it is a jaw drop at the avatar battle,but it is hard to decide do i have to seal her at the nyx battle,BUT IT IS AWSOME!

[@daleanderson6512]

summon night sword craft 2? anyone with the giant mech vs giant monster thing then you have to fight on their arms as the robot keeps the monster in place

[@Dorgengoa2080]

my favorite boss battle is probably from KH2 ,the final boss gauntlet against Xemnas is just amazing.

[@QuickAttackGaming]

Pokemon trainer red in pokemon crystal was probably one of my most memorable boss fights, I was young at the time and a person with a similar hat as ash ketchum with a pikachu made me think this was ash ketchum which was a really cool ending to such a great game. But now that im older and actually realise that red is the main protagonist in pokemon red,blue,yellow,fire red and leaf green made the experience 100 times better. Best child hood moment and I still replay that game just to hear the trainer red theme music...

[@maplesyrupphilosopher6886]

Yeah, baby metroid's death was hard.. so much rage. Also, i'd include Magus v. Frog (the solo) yes, it cost you Magus in the end. But just the atmosphere of that battle on the cliff with the iconic music going the whole time... and FF9 Beatrix battle in Burmecia, you're doing you thing - grinding it out - you're looking good and then she just says "oh the hell with this" and hits you with her Stock Break, neutering your whole team in one fell swoop and harshly reminding your team of who exactly they're dealing with (again, the epic tunes)

[@baraness24]

Aaaahhhhh Crono Trigger . Such Nostalgia. That Frog vs. Magus fight was pretty Iconic, but personally, mine was the battle versus Queen Zeal with Magus in your party. I only brought him in out of curiousity during one particular run through, and I was just blown away by how his theme replaces the original. Its makes the battle even more powerful considering Zeal is his mother. Just…ah…amazing…

Interesting, can't say I agree, but can't disagree either, great countdown

[@Firebird2799]

How about Cackeletta and Fawful from Mario & Luigi superstar saga?

[@ArcadianWarrior]

My favorite boss fight has actually always been the final battle between Dante and Vergil in DMC3. Particularly while using Trickster, it felt like the most legitimate duel between two equally skilled people I've ever experienced in a video game.

[@philviewer9906]

For me, Prometheus and Pandora fight from MegaMan ZXA is the best of boss battles. They are my favourite characters, they have AMAZING music (which is my favourite, mostly as its remixed ZXA Tunes version), and the battle is SO INTENSE. The Mood set on this battle feels GREAT when you see your enemy laughing at you that you can't do anything about Ouroboros creation, Prometheus and Pandora shows up, and they beat the hell out of Albert. And THEN! You have to fight them when the feeling is like "They've killed Albert! They try to kill me! I have to finish this quickly, because what if i will not destroy all of Models W in time?!" I was just beating the hell out of the control buttons in my DS when i was fighting them. I was angry (that they're stopping me from destroying Models W), sad (that they killed Albert, because that means they have gone Maverick), and Determined (because i wanted to finish the battle quickest as possible to see what happens next). This battle just gave me the Anger, Determination, and a little bit of sadness, just in one battle. That's why i love it. And again... the ZXA Tunes Remix... THE ZXA TUNES REMIX OF THIS MUSIC! This is one of my favourite musics in MegaMan Frenchise.

[@Underworlder5]

"no boss fight when dishing out vengeance feels this good" i had that moment in the first battle against shao kahn in MK9. he killed your friend and now you must kill him back. he doesnt really die, but he becomes very helpless after the fight

[@LeftSideDown]

12:21 is that supposed to be a reference from the video "Ask Logan #21"?

[@NukeA6]

I can't ask you to change your list because it's your favorites. I do have some epic boss battles that aren't on your list. 1. Shao Kahn (UMK3). This guy will kick your ass and then insult you in your face. 2. Metroid Prime (Metroid Prime). Hard but damn was this one hell of a battle. 3. Anubis (Zone of the Enders 2). Just when you feel like you're invincible, this guy comes. It's three part boss battle that leaves you "exhausted" in the end. 4. Majora (Majora's Mask). The Zelda game has some of the best boss fights in the entire series but this just takes the cake. You have to not use the Fierce Deity's Mask to appreciate it. 5. The Boss (MGS 3). So many good things about it. Not only is she so freaking dangerous that you can't even fight her in her face, the setting is beautiful and it's quite emotional. Perfect end to one of the greatest games ever made. 6. Dracula (Castlevania Adventure: Rebirth). Sure his first two forms are nothing new, it's his third form I'm talking about. Not only is it intimidating, he has the habit of filling the screen with projectiles and explosions. He looks impossible but he can be beaten. 7. Final boss and true Final boss (No More Heroes). Not spoiling this but these are the best boss fights from a game filled with awesome boss fights. 8. Any Colossus from Shadow of the Colossus. A game with only boss fights has got to be good. For me, it's the 13th Colossus but everyone has their favorite colossus.
