A few I would add that I didn't see here:
Death Egg from Sonic 2
A ton of bosses from the Mega Man series
As of recent, I would say the Meta Ridley fight from Brawl is pretty good.

i hated The End boss battle sooooo much :evil:
took me 5 freak'n hours to beat it!! ****!!! took for ever to find even with the sonar thingy and the thermal vision... that battle haunts me to this day :(
I know it wasnt the hardest boss in the world, but the first time you fight Ridley in MP3 is just fantastic and reminded me of the balrog-gandalf fight but mixed with star wars!
Also I loved the bosses in Twilight Princess
Psycho Mantis, Sephiroth, Kefka, Magus, Golbez, Bahamut in all of his FF appearances.
Metroid Bosses hold a special place.
Shadow of the Collosus has been stated over and over again for good reason. When the game is only boss battles, you need to make them huge. These were huge.
I'd say that the boss fights in Duke Nukem 3D need to get some love if only for the cut scenes afterwards. Finally, the epic FPS boss battles go way back to Doom. Those guys took a beating and barely flinched. Terrifying for the time.
Anyway. There have been too many bosses with star qualities to try and list them all. I think it's safe to say that we see a lot of the recent ones because of our current mindset, but going back would stir up old memories.
[QUOTE="FlawlessSeasons"]how could i have forgotten him and the sniper battle
just for the simple fact that he can die of old age.

All of em, some of my the most intense moments in my life.
Why does everybody say The End? That battle is lame. The only good part is if you sneak up on him and he's all "ZOMGWTFBBQ!"

It was awesome dude, and unexpected to think such an old man would be such a good sniper. The fact the area is split into three, and its so fun trying to figure out where he is, and when you do, trying to get to him without being spotted or getting killed. Makes you feel like a sniper, sneaking about searching everywhere, using your sonar and motion detectors to try and figure out where he's hiding. And then if you manage to find him, he'll flashbang you and run off, but you can use thermal googles to follow his footprints. Awesome.
[QUOTE="Guru_G4M3R"][QUOTE="DuDisNow"][QUOTE="Guru_G4M3R"]Seriously? That wasn't even hard to beat.100% GLaDos from Portal.
spinecaton
I didn't know the word 'impressive' meant 'hard to beat'.
huh, you learn something new every day :D
Absolute Virtue from FFXI
haha, I was wondering if anyone was going to put this bastard.
The End, The Boss, Jecht, Sephiroth are among my favorite. Especially The Boss, that fight was awesome in every way.
Gotta add Heavenly Sword and GoW fights, pretty much all of them. Also Sniper Wolf in MGS, can't believe I forgot about that.
[QUOTE="bobbetybob"]Thats the best boss fight ever, and all the bosses in that game are amazing.
Lothenon
This gets my vote. Definatly the best boss fight in a game, ever. The music is what makes this battle stand above anything else.
I'm getting the feeling from the constant praise of that game that I need to buy it asap.

Honestly, its a must play..the bosses are epic, its just the scale of them and just how huge the bosses are.

Maybe not a must play but it's still quite good. To be honest I just finished the game the other day (Rented it once back in 2006 and got about 60% of the way through and then finally got around to renting the game again last Saturday :P). Most of the Boss Fights are pretty epic but the exploration sections are nothing short of poor.Mario Bros
1. Bowser (Who can forget this one :D)
SMR-Venom
Thats not Bowser.... it's King Koopa, noobie!
