Skorge from GoW2

Disappointing boss. RAAM was better.

Epics Games owes us one for that.

I thought of another one. The Haunted Urn in Yoshi's Island (SNES) How do you beat him? Push him off the platform, which takes all of a minute. Whoo.

Re: What is the lamest boss battle?
I'm in the minority of those who enjoyed and appreciated Fable II's ending. Why does every game have to have an epic, super-frustrating boss at the very end? What if that doesn't fit the story the designers want to tell? You're really limiting your enjoyment (and developers are really limiting their creativity) if the rule is that every game must have basically the same ending. Just change up the number of tentacles on the monster and the color of whatever energy/goo they fling at you and we're good to go, right?

I could mention more than one game that I put 50+ hours into, got very involved in the story, only to reach an overly challenging final boss that caused me to give up on the game completely after trying to win that last battle a frustrating number of times. Now that is poor game design. (I'm looking at you, Dark Cloud for PS2.)

Having said that, Fable II does have a boss battle at the end. As someone mentioned earlier, it's the Giant Shard and all of the goons that attack you at the same time. The Lucien scene is part of the post-battle cinematic ending of the game.

The final boss in Halo 3. It was so easy I don't think it should count.

Re: What is the lamest boss battle?
I've just finished playing through Spiderman: Web of Shadows, and I have to say that the final fight against Venom is something of a 'rinse and repeat' mechanism.

You're able to upgrade your moveset to include some devastating combos throughout the course of the game, yet the final boss requires you to use Web Strike, a move you more or less start the game with by default, several dozen times with no deviation. Then it's a simple matter of hitting some buttons when prompted on screen to finish the cinematic.

Hardly groundbreaking. In fact, it barely creates a minor wobble...

Ya, my friend said that the last boss was deathly annoying. Hope you can last.

The Red Orb Guardian. You Don't even have to use the Sword of Vengeance or the Axe of Bitter Malice. You just walk right past him! That was lame! That was.... a Foxtrot Comic... Never mind. I got all confused

The ending to Fable II was pretty lame. Trying to defeat the big trolls was more difficult than killing Lucien.

Re: What is the lamest boss battle?
Would have to say borderlands boss's are easy and really no point in them being in the game.One of them even looks like a ladies bits didn't know if i wonted to shoot it or kiss it so to speak, with all the boss's in this game i received no damage from them way to easy and disappointing. But the worse boss battle has to be that slug thing at the vault just hide behind a wall and shot when he stopped squirting something at me.

Been reading this one alot. I think this is more of a story format than the classic video game one. In movie stories or books, sometimes the bad guy gets "his" by just one shot. I think the goal of Fable 2 was just a story you played along in. Not every game needs that huge battle in the end, just closure.
It is clear that you don't know what you are talking about.
