    The hardest boss of any video game?

    I was just thinking to myself earlier about a possibility for a boss in World of Warcraft to be so hard, that would require 100% perfect coordination from every single player, that it would be nearly impossible. I doubt such a thing would ever exist, because even the most minute latency hit could screw it up.

    Then my thoughts drifted to a question; what is the hardest boss of any video game ever created? Granted, I haven't played every game out there, so what my idea of hard could be extremely easy compared to some. I'm just a bit curious as to what a truly hard boss could consist of.

    In your experiences, what is the hardest boss in the world of video gaming?

    Some of the japanese "bullet hell" bosses are rediculous, but that's hardly fair because those games are hard regardless

    (If you want an example, look up the queen larsa boss fight on youtube)

    By God I would say Yukari's harder, or Flandre. Havn't tried Suwako, so dunno how hard she is. Perhaps some end-game bosses on lunatic, 'cause that's just ridiculous galore...

    Some say Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts is hard. Havn't tried him myself. For me, in a "normal" video game it has to be...I dunno, Kaiser Dragon in Final Fantasy VI took me a while to complete, but hardest... I can't think of one as of now. It's really tough to judge bosses against eachother seeing as you can't really compare an fps-boss with an rpg-boss, per example.

    This dude was pretty tough for me, last boss of Mortal Kombat 2. Even on the easiest level he was a huge pain.

    Can't really think of any others at the moment.

    In a mmo I would go with sleeper 1.0 - Kerafyrm (eq1). 500 person raid 3 or 4 expansions after velious. Although he was never ment to be killed.

    If I picked a boss made to be killed I'd have to go with Tunat`Muram Cuu Vauax (eq1). To my knowledge he was only killed by 1 guild before the next expansion came out.

    I miss EQ,

    Lmao i don't quite see how that amounts to being a "Boss" but i agree it would be extremely difficult, though the tickling on the crotch, would be seamlessly erotic :P

    Hardest boss I played in any game is Demon's Gate

    Is almost impossible if you don't meet the level requirement. (Final Fantasy 7)

    You got to play it so many times that you know each path inside out. Probably requires alot of patience :-\ That one must also be the hardest boss ever.

    It was damn annoying, one shotting Aeris all the time, mushing the other two, spamming phoenix down...

    But I got him, and that's how a boss should be. Hard, but defeatable! Poor sods who got stuck after the dragon though, unable to level up and getting smacked over and over...
