Best end of game fight ever?

[FluffX]

Metal Gear Solid 4

Which is it for you? Please put the name of the game at the top of the post, because of the massive spoiler potential.

There's something about seeing two men go from ready fighters to old men punching each other in the face, that just never gets boring.

Metal Gear Solid 4, no doubt, followed closely by my favourite game ever: God of War 2.

 

[Rune342]

Golden Sun 2, the Lost Age.
A handheld game with a final boss that took me 50 min. to beat not to mention the fact that it was about 25 stories tall.

Hm

I would have to say Metal Gear Solid 4, but Golden Sun 2 had a good one, but none have topped MGS4

Fable, an lengthy epilogue with plenty of combat, an intense boss fight and the plot being rounded out without feeling forced or crowbarred in. One of the few games I felt I had properly completed when the credits rolled, unlike the Acheivements-centric games I tend to play now...

Terranigma was really the most moving final boss fight for me. You were fighting against someone who had deceived in tricked you from the very beginning of the game and then stolen all of your victory from under your feet right when you think you've won.

Also satisfying: Jak 2 and the first God of War.

Maybe not the grandest, but my favorites:

Lunar: The Silver Star (Sega CD)
Mass Effect
Super Mario Bros. 2 (first NES game I owned, so it was special to me)

Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

I loved this game, and the 4-stage boss fight included all the best elements, instead of just forgetting it and going for a sword fight (although, happily, there is one of those too). It complemented the story perfectly, and didnt really feel like they had just stuck it on at the end. It feels like they had the ending the whole way through, and it just rolled smoothly into it.

@Dahemo
I found Fable's final boss to be a bit easy. Dodge his attack, (Or just let it hit you and drink a potion) use bow, repeat.

Final Fantasy VI always struck me as the most epic. Between the glorious "Dancing Mad" that accompanied the battle (which I've always preferred over "One-Winged Angel") and the size of the actual boss, it was awe inspiring for a Super Nintendo game. The tower itself wasn't just an intimidating mass, either. Every level of it stood for some aspect of the journey and the mythos surrounding it.

even so, it was too easy

Probably Rainbow 6 Vegas 2. You end up 1 man versus 20 and a fucking helicopter. Then you shoot it down and use ur pistol on a guy.

CoD4. Emotional and Epic.

Yeah, I guess it was too easy really.

Do it with your nose and tongue then.

MGS IV, especially with the bonus points for revealing the symbolism behind all the other end boss fights, and bringing them all together so eloquently.

I actually cried when I found out what happened with Liquid Ocelot. But still, nothing, not even MGS4 will ever top the perfection that is MGS3. Maybe Metal Gear Solid 4 is a better game, but MGS3 will always be the greater game. The end fight with The Boss was absolutely epic, moreso because I found out how to counter her CQC moves.

It's been said before a couple of times, but I laughed my ass off when I discovered how Kojima wanted me to "finish the fight" in MGS4 so to speak.

 

[gigastrike]

how is that?

 

[exocel]

glados, because it was the only fight in the game so you never saw it coming.
