Scariest boss fight ever

[Joseph Valdez]

What boss fight has scared you the most? I dont mean hardest boss fight but one that made you generally terrified.

For me it would maybe be the giant spider from resident evil because I'm really scared of spiders.

Keegan at the end. Not so much because of the boss, more because of what Alma was doing to me while I was in the chair. And afterwards when she let me feel the baby... UGH

The fucker with the two bladed chainsaw on resident evil 4

The Rope Priestess

Fatal Frame 3

By FAR!!! The giant dianoga from the sewer level of star wars: shadows of the empire. When I was a kid, I had to get my cousin to play that level b/c I was scared of the sounds.

I found Laughing Octopus to be a bit creepy... running around when she's disguised and then hearing "Snaaaaaakeeee" was definitely creepy. But I'll probably say for scariest (read: most intense) is the Hunter from Dead Space. Just the fact that you can't kill him even if you cut off his arms and his legs and then shoot into his back while he's crawling on the ground was scary enough, but being locked in a room with him while you wait for the door to be unlocked was pants-wettingly intense and nothing is a better relief than finally having that door open and running straight for the elevator and then realizing your heart is pounding.


Oh, and he's got one of the most brutal kills in the game.

The first pyramid head fight, and Sephiroth scared me when you finally fought him due to how much the game hyped him

When I was younger I used to get scared by that legless mutant thing in the Great Pyramid level of TR1. Though I was scared of the panther mummies & flying atlanteans too... And winged Natla.

I can't think of any recent ones really.

LOL, that thing. My first experience was more like this: "Ultimate being eh? We'll see how 'ultimate' you are without legs!..... heh, not so... hmm, regenerative body parts? Well now, that just might be a problem."
But alas, it really wasn't. A few rooms away is cryochamber to which you can freeze him. Disappointing really.

Oh god her... Thanks, I won't be getting any sleep tonight

 

[Phlakes]

Mr. Sandman from the new Punch-Out.


"You want some mo'?"

 

[AbsoluteVirtue18]

The rabid bear in Condemned 2. You can kill him in one hit, but first you have to get away from him, and unless you know what to do ahead of time, you're screwed.

 

[Aarquus]

not really a boss, but the first time you encountered the Flood on Halo 1
(to clarify, i was 10 when i played that level)

I wounder what happens to our hero in FEAR 3?

I know you don't play as him in the game, but I wanna see him.

Fallout 1 Final Boss

Spoiler

The Master from Fallout 1

Not only is this crazy guys scary, he's a billion times smarter than you, looks fucking weird, and commands an army of brutes that you already had a hell of a fight with in first few floors, and all your partners are probably dead. Especially Dogmeat, since he keep running on the insta kill floor. So you are all alone, fighting a bunch of Mutants and this crazy asshole. You can always convince him to kill himself if you have the proper knowladge, but you still have to get the fuck outta there before the place goes sky high.

His attacks are mainly 2 Gatling Lasers by the way, and he can attack twice, and his Mutants respwan when you kill them.

Or you could just bypass him altogether, arm the nuke in the basement, and run like hell.
Oh and by the way, if you don one of the Children cloaks you can bluff your way past all the mutants without having to fire a shot.

Well fuck me my friend, because it was my first Playthrough and I didn't beat it because of the following.

But I am a manly man and will face him head on when I meet him again. Because I know where to get Tesla Armor.

Suit yourself.

...wait Tesla Armor? What do you need that for? You did get the Power Armor, didn't you?
