If I said FF7 I am sure nobody could argue that the boss in that game wasn't at least well designed.

You're joking right? It's like fighting a quadriplegic person.

I agree with SOTC. Complete epicness. I also found it fun figuring out the trick to beating the bosses in the Zelda games.

Hydras in the first 10 minutes of a (then) new franchise. God of War has the most epic boss battles... ever.

Although it isn't the best IMO, it was very fun. The background music in that battle made it so much better too. Very fun

Metroid Prime 2 had some of the best boss fights ever. Many were really creative and original.

I suppose, but then Halo 3 was one of those games where I stopped enjoying it after the one playthrough. This is mostly because things weren't as challenging, but I will agree blowing it up was very fun first time.

I completed the game on legendary by my self, and on heroic with friends. Does that qualify in any way?

Yeah it was the same for my friend. I usually have fun on that part everytime I play though again, although I haven't played Halo 3 in awhile.

Super Mario Galaxy, RE4, and Shadow of the Colossus are three off the top of my head. Shadow is pretty special though since it pretty much relies on boss battles and nothing else to be a great game, and it is a fantastic game.

The very large flying colossus from Shadow of the Colossus is one that left me speechless during and after completion.

I don't know why people are naming off No More Heroes. While each one was really unique in terms of the character and moves, each one pretty much boiled down to finding the opening in a pattern and then hacking away whenever it came up.

Freya on 4D was the most interesting fight I've ever done on a boss. Lenneth was interesting as well.

Ninja Gaiden boss battle was one of the best in my opinion. The boss battle was hard and epic at the same time that it create a great experience for me. Another one was MGS3, the strategy that was require was just amazing, not one battle feel like the others which made it feel fresh for every boss encounter.

i think we have a winner.

Yep, you can't beat a game with just boss fights, and they are all really good.

I think people who believe that RE:4 had good boss battles never played a RE before 4 in their lives. Nothing beat in RE:2 the end Tyrant sequence and countdown. Nothing beat the random burst through of Nemesis of 3. Peoples' standards have sure decreased.

Mine goes to either SotC or MGS3. The best fight ever has to go to The End since I found at least 3 ways to kill him.. gotta love those easter eggs.

God of War II has some awesome boss battles.

Metal Gear Solid 3 simply wins out because of the battle with The End.
