Game series with the best boss battles

[Leemaster777]

So which game series, in your opinion, has the best boss battles on average? Now obviously, longer game series are going to be at an advantage, but even if there's only one game in a series, that doesn't mean you can't nominate it. For example, there's only one Bayonetta game, but that one game has more epic bosses than alot of whole series.

Anyways, I'm going to nominate Kingdom Hearts. Mostly because I've been going through TvTropes, and the Awesome Boss page for Kingdom Hearts has reminded me how many epic bosses that series has.

I tell you what "boos" i enjoyed th emost out of a game series. The last level on HAWX 2. Not os much a boss itself, but it was crazy cool... well i suppose you could count the giant ominous sky lasers of death a boss.

Metal Gear Solid series has always had some fun bosses. My personal favorites would be the bosses from Snake Eater.

I always liked the Legend of Zelda bosses, a good variety and guaranteed to have fun mechanics to them unlike some bosses in games which are normal boring enemies with too much health.

God of War also had some damn good boss fights.

Shadow of the Colossus

Ninja.

Anyway, I would also agree with Kingdom Hearts. 1 was full of Disney villans from my childhood. 2 was much darker.

Metroid. Just in Super you have a fire breathing space dragon, a two-screen tall spike shooting lizard monster, and that epic Mother Brain fight.

And then there's Dark Samus.

Deus Ex simply cause you don't have to fight any boss battles I can think of really. They can all be taken out or avoided without any traditional boss fight in both Both earlier Deus Ex games I think. Probalby my least favorite thing I heard about the third one is mandatory boss fights.

Alpha Protoocl shows how in a shooting, slealth, RPG hybrid that mandatory boss fights is NOT a good idea.

No More Heroes is practically ALL about the bosses. They only appear on screen for no more than about half an hour, but they are just written so well, they feel like actual presences in the game. And each one is memorable in it?s own unique right. Suda51 is a genius, you can?t really deny that.

Shadow of the Colossus

This is a good answer.

OT: Persona.

Demon's Souls most definately
