Gears Of War 2. I was loving the game, then the final boss came. 5 seconds later (quite literally, 5 seconds later, you honestly press and hold the right trigger twice to win), I was like "WTF?". The game still goes down as a great shooter in my books because the gunplay works well, and the worm level was fun, but that was ridiculous.
I didn't much appreciate fighting Xemnas in Kingdom Hearts 2. See, in the first game, you're fighting 'Ansem' (cough cough) and it gets really tough, I struggled for ages trying to get past the stage where you're in that little bowl area and Donald/Goofy are trapped outside on the beach. Then in KH2, you reach Xemnas, and he's piss easy. There's still several stages, and it's still pretty damn cool (like the bit where you fight on the back of a mother-fucking dragon...), but it's still too easy to be worth all that trouble in the rest of the game.
Though it was still a good game. Any game where you fight a thousand Heartless at once just has to be good...

Not just the final boss in borderlands but the guardians. Who are supposedly kick ass, and given the amount of XP attributed to killing them the developers clearly thought they were a challenge but they were easily the least troublesome enemies in the game.
Every single one of Wet's bosses was a QTE, a slow QTE. Hardly difficult from a hardly difficult game.
Apart from several excellent examples already put up (Oblivion, Fable II), I have to say Skies of Arcadia.
Three stupidly easy boss battles, back-to-back, separated only by cutscenes (no save opportunities), and they went on FOR FUCKING HOURS.
The first time, I got bored and lost focus halfway through the second battle. Got killed, had to start all over again. About two goddamn hours just to get back to where I had been. Madness.

The final boss of Ninja Gaiden 2. The rest of them made me want to sit in a corner and cry, but the damn Archfiend, which they led you to believe to be the most badass fucker to ever walk the planet, was so fucking easy it isn't even funny. For fuck sake, the damn ninja dogs were harder than the Archfiend.
Fable 1 ended excellent, didn't it?
The final boss was difficult, yet beatable, it had variety, it was just awesome.
Fable 2?
Fuck no.
You shoot a guy in the crotch, and he falls to his death.
How difficult that was.
Fallout 3 also comes to mind, I can usually kill Colonel Autumn in 5 seconds, with any weapon.

I personally hate the opposite. Shit loads of easy missions then suddenly BAM you walk into the vertical difficulty curve.
Assuming I wasn't the only person to find the last few missions on Prototype a complete piss take. Especially what I hope is the final boss, I haven't actually defeated him yet... He keeps killing me with that super mega ultra shit-loadsa-tentacles-spurt-out-my-body-move but with longer reach.

Let me guess, you were Mordecai with Trespass right?JohnSmith said:
They do become hugely easy at that point.
Bioshock did that and I wasen't to thrilled about it. I remeber playing on Hard and having to die multiple times just to get to the final boss, only to find out that there is a health station a few yards to the side and they give you a ton of money toward the end just so you can prepare for the fight.
Fable is another example a final boss that is so easy that the AI kills him for you if you don't waste the bullet.
