Just finished Resident Evil 5 yesterday, and I just sat there and HAD to finish it. The final boss that I am not going to mention "its" name is just so damn frustrating, it took me about an hour to finish the fight and land the killshot. Even though finishing thegame was satisfying, the ending wasn'ttoo original.After I got off my couch I felt dizzy and about to throw up since I was concentrating too much. So what about you guys? What are the most intense boss fights you had?

Wasn't really a boss, but one of the Espers in FFXII (I forget the name, but the one who becomes resistant to everything after awhile) took about 2 hours. I didn't even kill it. Just couldn't land any hits on him. It's almost impossible, but I'm sure there's a way. Seriously, all that time wasted for nothing :cry:

There are a lot bosses that took long (like the last in lagend of dragoon or secret of mana) but overall I'd say Emerald Weapon in FF VII which I firstly killed with KotR xD

The End, Metal Gear 3: Snake Eater I never beat this boss, which resulted the end of my playing MG3. I beat MG4 though. The last boss of MG4 was tough, especially the fist fight at the end.

yeah :lol: I kept dying so I just changed to normal, that was the only hard part in the game imo.

Same for Resistance 2 in Super Human, last boss wasn't hard just very annoying having to run in circles for 20 mins, I thought the game was broken. lol

I have a list of them because i don't remember which took me the longest.

the sniper from mgs3

the sniper from mgs4

sephiroth from ff7

end boss from ff8

in the end i never beat sephiroth and my brother decided to use game genie to beat him. I also never beat the boss from ff8 because she would knock me down to one hp and in the time it took to revive my dead party to launch a counter attack she would do it again. I think the first time i fought the sniper from mgs3 it took me about two hours to beat him.

The flying pig boss from "Prinny: can I really bee the hero"

don't really know how long itlasted since I didn't play through it in one go, but that was easily the most time consuming boss I've ever played. I believe I wastedalmost 200 lives on that boss alone. (note that, for me, this boss was the one carrying the last piece of the ultra desert. don't know if it matters)

i would also agree with radec (along with my statement about the end in mgs3) but ya radec on elite was crazy cause its not even like your fighting him for the most part but the hordes of soldiers and then after all that you gotta fight him... lol

No game type restriction in (if MMO count) I would say some boss on FFXI takes quite a few hours to bring down. Guess our worst fight took us 5-6 hours ...

There was a long boss fight in Dark Sector which took a while, but also the final boss on RE5.

The End the first time around took an hour. Vamp in MGS4 took me about 30 minutes before I ran out of items and accidentally figured it out.

i got some good news for ya lol. if you go back and play it now with the same saved game on your memory card, the end has died of old age. now go back and finish mgs3.

I have beat each with a total time spent on boss fights as atleast 10 minutes. But that is because I have Infinite Rocket Launcher and the huge Magnum (forgot name):lol:

Radec didn't take too long for me, just the fight leading up to it. Also, the crying wolf battle but that is because I took the sneaky approach under the truck too. Some fights in God of War 2 took a while like one of the final ones because I was unsure of what to do.

I think the longest boss fight I can remember is the final fight in Okami for the PS2. First you have to fight all the other major bosses AGAIN and then, you fight the final boss. And he has about 4-5 different forms, so like over all the final part of the game is about 1-2 hours long. But damn, I did not want that to end. That game was SO amazing!

Yazimat in FFXII. Thankfully it was a fight were you could leave and comeback to it with the boss at the same HP as when you left. Also, not techincally a boss fight, but the endurance races in GT4 where some races lasted a real life 24hrs. Those were fun.

I have never beat a FF end-boss or weapon, I really can't be bothered to get to get high HP and Mana. The longest and closest I came to beating the end-boss in FFX, inside The Sin, forgot his name but it's your dad or something and when you fight him the music is like rock, anyway I got up to the bit where he takes the sword out of his chest and I had knocked him down to about 70,000HP, his 1st stage BTW has about 90,000 I think, I'm doing all this from memory, the 2nd stage (with the sword) he has 120,000HP.

End Boss Legend of Dragoon hands down longest time spent on a console game boss. Other than that, countless wipes in WoW raids when the game first launched and people were just getting to lvl 60....good times.

Not a PS3 game, but in the final boss (Metrac I think) in Killzone Liberation. I left my PSP on sleep mode for days while I was trying to beat him. That was an insane boss fight...

Like most of the people who posted, I think that The End from MGS3 was long. I mean honestly the fight gave me a headache.

BUT, Radec was both long and hard so I choose him... seriously this guy is literally facepalming me when he cloaks.

Well the longest (though pretty easy) boss fight I had was The End from MGS3, I took my time sneaking around in that thick jungle tryin to find him and take him down and being carefull that he doesn't notice me. It took me about a good 2 hours to finish him off my first time.
