MSN publish a list of top 10 boss battles

[ironlordthemad]

To those of us with a hotmail account the "Today" pop-up thing is just something to click away when we go online to chat with other people. However today I noticed that they had a list of their top ten boss battles.

So do you agree with the list?
Are the people at MSN idiots?
Any changes you would make?

10) Berial from Devil May Cry 4
9) The Leviathon from Dead Space
8) The LvL 4 boss from Rez
7) Bowser Super Mario 64
6) Krauser Resident Evil 4
5) Hydra God of War
4) Ganondorf The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
3) Seven Force Gunstar Heroes
2) Psycho Mantis Metal Gear Solid
1) The Colossi Shadow of the Colossus

MSN does this kind of thing all the time. It's worth checking it every now and again, because they tend to have other "Top Tens" in gaming.

Yeah, the people at MSN are kind of idiots, but if something is blatantly obvious, even an idiot can pick up on it.

The only one of those I played was Bowser from Super Mario 64, and um. No.


I got bored of Dead Space, couldn't finish.

 

[Ultress]

At least they pit the Colossi at #1

 

[Chancie]

I was agree with the colossi. Those were amazing boss fights. :3

Not sure if I agree with Berial on the list. I didn't think he was amazing, even if he is just #10.

Though Krauser was fun and so was Psycho Mantis. Dunno about the others though. Never played them.

Ganondorf doesn't deserve to be up there. In Ocarina of Time, the battle between him and Link was basically a game of baseball using swords and energy balls.

I think you mean empty milk bottles and energy balls. Cause that's the only way to go.

Why is the leviation up there? That was a horrible fight in my opinon and it just left me upset and unsatifised.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Fuck yes. Seven Force was awesome as hell.

 

[Sassafrass]

I am a bit surprised there's no MGS battles in there apart from Psycho Mantis. I think the REX battle was good enough to be in there.
Otherwise, no comment as I haven't played any of the others.

ive got to admit a boss fight called "the leviathon" isnt a boss fight if you can do it without breaking a sweat
my brother did it in under a minute without even thinking about it

Why is Bowser there? He was piece of cake, maybe a bit annoying when it came to throwing him on the mines, hehe.

Also this.

Looked like you punched the energy balls, hehe.

Not enough MGS, not enough Kingdom Hearts. I would like to see the criteria they used to determine what made these boss battles so great.

 

[ma55ter_fett]

No the second to the last boss in metroid prime echos was pretty damn hard and it ain't on the list.

I once refered to it as the last boss in a post once, luckily someone (who had not had as much caffine as I had) corrected me.

 

[Maxman3002]

I agree with the #1, cant really argue with boss fights where you litterally climb the boss like some huge platforming game. Some of the other bosses were a bit of a strange choice. The dead space one wasnt very hard at all

 

[Bassman_2]

Somehow as I read the title before I came here I was thinking of Gananodorf/Ganon. Mainly because it's the first one I ever beat.

 

[Blindrooster]

What!!!! No Lucien from Fable 2!?!?!? That ending boss fight was EPIC!!!

 

[TheSeventhLoneWolf]

mantis from mgs was s'posed to mess with you, i think he was more of an enigma than a boss.

 

[Gigaguy64]

Pretty good list, my only beef is that the Doom Dragon from Golden Sun 2 wasent on there.
come on, it was MURDER!
even after i wandered around for 2 hours just trying to find where to go, it still took me at least 7 trys to beat it!
