Grinders in Gears of War 3. They're so tough but if you man up and blast their face away faster than they can get you, it's a winnable fight. They can kick your ass too, though, so watch your back and take cover if you need to.

Drudges are a pretty good fight, too.

I think this thread was around not too long ago...anyway, my favorite enemies to fight are the Dark Knuts/ Iron Knuckles from Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. Unlike the other Zelda games, fighting them seemed pretty fair...well, once you learned some awesome fighting moves.

The annoying asshole enemies who taunt you until you blow their head off. Also, the transparently evil mastermind who annoys you throughout the game.

In my one experience with Halo Reach, I threw a sticky grenade on a dude, he yelled "Yay!!!!!!!", then ran back into a crowd of other dudes and blew them all up.

Whatever he was, that's my answer.

I've killed many enemies in my time, but smashing through hoards of Orks with a Thunder Hammer and jetpack is far more fun than it should be
Ahh Orks, 40ks ever relaible punching bag (that can kill you)

Innocents in GTA4. If you don't have the intelligence to keep your mouth shut around a heavily armed immigrant riding in the bloodied car of satan, you kind of deserve what happens.
This and the tiny mobs in Ratchet and Clank that go down in one shot. I love to spray into them with a lightning modded gun, it's just so satisfying.

Anything significantly larger than the player; it's a lot more satisfying to defeat an imposing foe. For instance:

Basically just any opponents in a MOBA. The sense of pride you get when you and your team win a huge team fight... it hasn't been trumped by any other game accomplishment. (Actually maybe beating Mile High Club on veteran ;) )

Was it single player or did someone online do it?

It was single player.

Confetti rained from the skies after they blew up as well. It was quite adorable. :D

Pigcops in any Duke Nukem Forever. On the PC the game controls great and Duke's one liners are always nostalgic for some stress relief.

Also, standard headcrab zombies. The fast ones give me anxiety and the poison ones give me chills.

I do enjoy a foe that, when alone, is actually a valid threat to register. Something or someone that is a pretty good reflection of my abilities as a player, takes a show of skill, effort, and cunning to defeat, and that shows up at just the right frequency to make me grin rather than groan at the thought of facing another one. Darknuts from Twilight Princess and Hunter pairs from Halo: Reach are two such enemies.

Slaughtering waves of the popcorn hordes does little more than sate the ire and bloodlust generated from having to deal with them to begin with, and enemies with cheap and irritating tactics don't even warrant an afterthought in their inevitable execution. But an enemy that will face me with both honor and might will be respected. In the possible event I lose to them, I may actually laugh aloud and dignify crushing them with my full might on the next go around instead of using the absent-minded, efficiency-focused playstyle I usually adopt.

The skinny humans in Borderlands. I just love blowing off their arms, legs, heads, or making them explode into dozens of tiny chunks.

Simply wonderful! That's nice Bungie thought of something like that.

in vidjagames, my favoured enemy is usually the one designated, in perfect english, as "that closest one what ams trying to kill me"

on the Warhammer battlefield, however, I have always enjoyed slaughtering elves of all colours (tha bluidy beard-shaving,underpants wearing,tee-totalling knife-eared dancing unbaraki)
and greenskins of the predominantly one colour. the reasons why, can be found in Dammaz Kron, but you'll have to pry it out of the High Kings cold dead fingers before he'll let you have a look at it.
ready cannonade!
up axes!
fer th' glory of th'ancestors!

The tough ones, the ones that make you earn it. Like Zelda's Ironknuckles, several of the stronger classes of Nobody in Kingdom Hearts 2, or more commonly certain bosses who you'd swear actually put ingenuity into finishing you off when they themselves are near death.

As explained by C F, slaughtering weak baddies by the truckload has its perks, but gets boring fast. Guess this qualifies me as a 'Blood Knight' for gaming enemies. I wait eagerly for the hack n' slash game that gives us enemies smart enough to change their tactics to counter the moves that you've been using to massacre their colleagues minutes before, or adjusting their patterns after you've dodged the first one or two for the 10th time.
