IT was amazing back then, nostalgic today, it's an extremely well done fight with the music and the darkness. Quite the battle.

I agree, the setting was just perfect. No Master Sword at first, fighting the battle in the ruins of the castle, and being surrounded by fire. IMO nothing can beat it.

Windwaker's Ganon was better. Intense in every possible way. I mean he's actually a threat, unlike that Ocarina version.

I disagree, beating Ganondorf in Wind Waker was very manageable with only 3 hearts. Ganon in Ocarina of Time was quite a bit more of a challenge.

He was a walk in the park... I was seriously dissapointed with that battle TBH.

Anyway, here's my answer to this topic:

Okami > Zelda. Lechku and Nechku: The Twin Demons, Yami, Ninetails, Blight, Orochi.. all better fights than Ganon.

Yeh it was. The Ocean was comin' down on top you while your battling the mother ****** and you got Zelda to your left bow and arrowing him to death. That makes it 10 times more epic.

Well what about fighting a battle surrounded by fire, with only the megaton hammer and light arrows? That's pretty epic I think. :P

Jumping 12 feet in the air and coming down on Ganondorf's forehead with The Blade of Evil's Bane resulting in him turning into stone was way more epic.

....Ok I'll give you that. That was qutie possibly the most epic thing in all Zelda games... However, Link does still stab Ganon a few times in the face at the end of Ocarinas battle too.

As an extension to that: A certain boss fight in MGS4 managed to get that feeling from me for the first few minutes. Final boss fight of 3 and 4 also deserve mentions in just how climactic they were. I will agree with TC that Ganon was an awesome boss fight but sadly my MGS fanboy is showing today :P

I didn't say it was hard, just that it was epic. I'm playing through again on the unlocked difficulty, hopefully he's harder.

I'm pretty sure there are way more epic boss fights than that, even within the Zelda franchise.

Well if a boss fight is easy and weak it sort of hurts the "epicness" don't ya think?

That colossus fight someone posted was over in like 2 minutes flat, but it still looked pretty epic. I guess there are a couple ways you could define it.

Meh. if you have to get TECHNICAL about it, sure. Still, they were thrown in there to add more change to the game play. Not every boss could be scale to the highest point and stab. SoC is still one of my Top 10 games of all time.

Have you ever played the game in Hard Mode?

All the Colossi have different weak points than in Normal Mode and take longer to kill. :o

Even the 4 stage ganon fight in Zelda TP is better. You fight a possesed Zelda, then Ganon in moster form, then you have to chase him though Hyrule field as he tries to escape, then a 1v1 sword fight with Epona naying in the background with a thunderstorm. Better in every way then OOT.(OOT is my 2nd fav Zelda)

Psycho Mantis is actually a more epic battle for me, because I really didn't know what was going on at first until I look at the guild. On the other hand Zelda was just zelda, I remember just hacking away on ganon. Windwaker ganon was alot better than Ocarina of Time one anyway.

I think Wind Waker Ganondorf was a better fight...AAllxxjjnn
agreed, hell even the Twilight Princess battle was far more interesting.
