Why was Renamedsin put on probation for this?

OT: Can't think of any surprises at the minute actually, but I'm sure one will come to me.

Squall in Kingdom hearts. I just get to traverse town, I'm not sure what the fuck just happened or what is going on, and this guy comes out and starts beating the crap out of me.

Name an Ace Combat game, any Ace Combat game.

At some point some guy you've never heard of will show up and proceed to rape you with his overpowered superjet.
Ilya Pastaman or whatever he was called in 6. Even worse that I started the mission with the stealth fighter, not knowing that Pastaman in his evil-death-bastard-mobile was waiting for me.

Kurt Zisa from Kingdom Hearts. Granted, he is an optional boss, but he has literally no significance to the plot of the game. About 2/3 of the way through you have the option to return to Aladdin-Land and you find the magic carpet having a fit. You jump on the carpet's back, it flies you out into the desert, and... HOLY SHIT! GIANT SNAKE IN A FOUR-ARMED SUIT OF ARMOR!!! And then you have to fight it.
This Boss was only put in the game because Square-Enix ran a competition that whoever drew the best Boss and described it's attributes etc would have it put in the game and there name as the Boss' name.

Many RPGs have bosses that just pop out of nowhere. I can't think of too many that don't come from those games.

Looking at Dynasty Warriors 4 on my PS2 game shelf has made me think of a big 'Fuck You' in the game: Lu Bu. I can't remember if it was told in the mission briefing or not.
You can be exscuse for not knowing because it's ancient chinese history/mythology, but Lu Bu is basically chinese Hercules. They mention him in the games encyclopedia.

In ff7 the mountain pass you take that starts at the foot of the town where cloud and tifa grew up. Remember that blue thing that looked like a number of tails and claws were fused together using nuclear energy? It wasn't the strongest boss in the game but at that point it's definitely one of the toughest to beat.

Normally I just let my two party members die apart from cloud, healed myself until the bosses powerful attack let me use my limit break, used my limit break to stun him, healed myself quickly and then attacked him until the stun wore off.


Dark Link was easy if you had Din's Fire. There was no way he could counter it and it did a fairly large amount of damage. It makes such a hard boss so easy that whenever I'm in the water temple I ban myself from using it so I feel satisfied instead of guilty when I win.

I just had to point out that that is a TERRIBLE comparison. Lu Bu isn't half god or half elf or half anything. He's simply a warrior that was SO good, he gained a reputation for being unbeatable in combat during the War of the Three Kingdoms. He died from being poisoned by his lord after killing a bunch of generals (who were appart of said lord's family) that were on his side, claiming them to be far to inferior to order him around.

OT: Helicopter from Rainbow Six: Vegas 2. Just...WHY!?!

Carry Armor of FF7.

(Spoilers pertaining to FF7)

Miniboss with no relevance to the story around halfway through the game, guarding the second to last huge materia, summoned by Reno just because he cba to fight at that moment, before a cool minigame which is the bit where you actually get the materia. So, just a stepping stone?

LAPIS LASER FOR 1500 DAMAGE

Yeah... I never, ever grind and the first time I came across it I didn't know about Big Guard or bother levelling Barrier. I don't think _any_ of my characters had 1500 HP max.

Oh, and the best thing is, he can actually spam Lapis Laser. If you can't get his MP down in time (which requires Magic Hammer (which I didn't have)) he'll just keep using it. Oh, and he can pick up members of your party taking them out of the fight - can take two of your three like that - until you destroy the arms. Destroying the arms means more lapis lasers.

I think I only beat it by prepping three limit breaks beforehand and unleashing them on it before it could melt my face off. Still, every time after I come prepared with big guard :p

Only a boss fight in the sense that every big fight scene in Halo is a boss fight, but the Flood in Halo: CE seems to fit this profile well, although there's a bit of warning before you meet them, in the form of a cutscene that triggers right before they show up.

Thanks for panicking and getting killed, marines. I'm going to run away from these fucking balloons and- Wait, they're walking. And they have guns. What the hell?

It took me forever to finally figure out how to beat him. I had to buy a strategy guide for it. And now, I can't remember how...

The Phantom at Big Ben in Kingdom Hearts. Of all the optional bosses in that game, he was the hardest. Harder than Sephiroth, even. At least Sephiroth didn't have a non reversible one-hit kill. EDIT: Heartless Angel killed instantly in that one, didn't it? Never mind. I still feel Phantom is harder.

no, sephiroth just had a drain-all-magic-and-reduce-you-to-one-hit-point attack. that's all.

and yes, kurt zisa was easy, but it's more of the shock of "holy shit, a giant suit of armor with four swords just burst out of the desert sands and is attacking me" then difficulty.

Final Fantasy X. That boss at the exit of Mt. Gagazet. It basically just pounces on your team when you finally get out of the cave and proceeds to hand your ass to you.

the final fantasy games really like doing this, admitedly some of them you can see coming but some of them (seymour from X anyone, that guy really pissed me off) are true to god WTF moments and can be so hard that the game should have a sticker on the box that says "stratagy guide needed to play" written on it
