I figured I'd start a topic to get some nostalgia going on here if that's alright, if it's not feel free to slap me across the head and delete this thread. >_<
I'm sure most of us here have beaten a lot of games over the years and we've had to deal with our fair share of average to disappointing final boss fights where once we win we go "That's it? That was boring!" but naturally there's always those occasions where we have awesome final boss fights where not only are the stage,presentation and setting intense and cool, but the soundtracks that plays as you start also adds to the intensity,quality of the final boss fight, and it also gets you pumped up.
This topic is to discuss any Final Boss fight moments that had all those qualities and also made you go "Wow that was awesome." Needless to say this topic WILL HAVE SPOILERS, you've been warned....
I'll start off with the one of my first moments I remember at the top of my head.
The Legend of Zelda:Ocarina of time for the Nintendo 64: As you gaze at the remains of the castle where your final battle took place, you stand proud of the fact that you've won. You defeated Gannondorf, Saved all the sages, and rescued the princess, now all that's left is for you to go back to your own time.
But before Zelda can arrange that, you hear something shake under the rubble of the castle you and Zelda just escaped from, you leave the Princess to investigate and to your surprise Gannondolf pops out out the rubble looking beat up but not defeated. He also looks angry as he shows off his Tri-force of Power.
You draw your sword ready to fight once more but he begins to transform to his infamous Ganon form, traps you and him in a circle of flames separating you from Zelda, Attacks you relentlessly, and knocks away your master sword sending it flying as you watch it land right next to Zelda behind the flames.
You then stand seemingly defenseless before this very large creature and as Zelda watches and prays from afar, The Name "Ganon" show's up on the screen and now you're ready for the final battle of the game.
I was only in Junior high when I got to this boss fight and this was my first final boss fight that I thought was cool. I mean not only did I think the Music was appropriate for the situation, I remember for my first time I used to play around with him a bit and I thought it was awesome that with each hit you took from Ganon, you would go flying and in the back you can hear Zelda Scream in terror with each hit you take.
Then once you've figured out how to hurt him and leave him weak on the ground, the firewall would temporary drop, Zelda would then hold him down with her powers and urged you to get the sword and finish him off. Once you picked up the sword you would then go up to Ganon and give him a free face lift before stabbing him in the face,declaring you the winner of the game.
I have a few more memorable final boss moments but I'll save those for later but until then let us all share our favorite final boss fight moments.
P.S. Yes I know the topic was TLDR, but cut me some slack, this is my first thread here since the forum REBOOT....
P.P.S. I also made the topic before but since the reboot of the forums it disappeared....
