Psycho Mantis in MGS4 took me ages to figure out how to kill. Once I did though, she wasn't much of a problem.

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.

Lol, I remember that it didn't take me so much to get him on the normal difficulty. I just had too much time popping his body guards and dying. It took me less than 40 mins (I got the trophy) but not sure how long though

If it's time spent on trying to beat him then I would say Sephiroth in KH2. Took me so long to memorize the speed and his attack patterns. If it's time spent literally mid battle then the time you first fight Kongol in Legend of Dragoon. It's because I started it in the morning before school and didn't want to lose my progress so I left my PS1 on mid battle for the day until I got home.

The EMERALD WEAPON in Final Fantasy VII was one hard obstacle. The guy took time to fall. And not to mention the screwed up attacks that would kill two of my guys. I felt envigorated once i used Cloud to finish the monstrosity with the 'Omnislash' Level Break.

Ah, the good ol' days.....

Some of the boss fights in the MGS series took me quite a while in my first playthrough but the longest has the be the endboss from Resident Evil 5. I too won't say who or what it is to avoid spoilers but even after the killing blow was delivered I was actually expecting him to get up and fight some more. Man that was epic.

it took me about 15 to 20 minutes to beat the end. i used the thermal goggles to track his footprints and sneek up behind him. then just shoot him with the tranq gun. the longest boss fight ive had has to be yiazmat from final fantasy 12. it was actually late at night when i was fighting him and i fell asleep mid fight, lol. luckily i had my gambits set up to where i didnt have to do anything but watch. also a friend called which woke me up right before i was about to run out of items. it took around 3 hours for me to beat him.

I'm pretty sure I've encountered a longer boss fight than this before, but this one just stands out: the boss fight with sephiroth in FFVII. Seriously, it took him like 5 minutes to do that one meteor attack. I think the final boss fight in Lost Odyssey was also really long. The most recent long boss fight I've had was with Radec in KZ2. Probably the longest boss fight I've ever played in a shooter. Oh, and the End in MGS3.

the end in mgs4(edit mgs3:p), it was pretty funny i was like running around for an hour and then i saw this colourful parrot and below the parrot was the sniper himself, so i got out my shotty and blasted his ass, and it was winnage.

i remember someone took a week to beat that boss, but he didn't really beat him since the game is programmed, that after a week in the real world(i.e. our world, who knows if it is real...) the end dies of old age... TAKE THAT FOURTH WALL MUAHHAHUAUAUHAUAUH!!

hmmm, she was pretty easy compared to sniper wolf and the end...

night vision ftw... and hiding under that vehicle near the start of the boss battle.

i bet some for some people that couldn't be bothered paying attention to the epic story would be stuck on vamp...

Yeah, I got a friend who bought metal gear after I recommended it to him and he hates the cutscenes so he justs skips them, I am waiting for him to reach that part.

The longest boss fight I have had that I can remember is my first time fighting with The End on MGS3. I missed the thermal goggles to help me spot him easier, and I tried to take him on sniper to sniper. It was intense, but long.

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?

gedo

Yea had the exact same experience. Played the final RE boss fight until 5 in the morning... really on normal mode its not hard at all but I was completely out of ammo so i ended up having to sell everything and buy like 6 magnums and sold 4 of them and kept the ammo. But yea seriously it was a pretty unoriginal and not satisfying ending but i was marveling at the "bosses" graphics it was perty sweet.

Mine would have to be on Shinobi for the PS2. The last boss for some reason would take absolutely no damage every hit i managed to land would take the smallest amount of life off. Ugh hate remembering it becuase i think in the end the battle took me about an hour and 17 minutes i think and the ending wasnt even worth it

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. misterfatzz

Beating The End is simple. Turn off your Playstation for a week and the sniper will have died of old age. Not kidding!

i honestly beat The End the legit way(not doing so would have felt wrong) but you can just set the time forward on your ps2 and he'll die that way. btw be sure to snag his parrot *yum* =D. As far as I can remember The God OF Destruction was my longest boss battle in Legend Of Dragoon. Epic stuff!

The Dreaded Crab in Blaster Master (NES) was quite tough . Omega Weapon in FF8 was tough and long . The bosses in a game called Alundra on the PS1 were quite long too ... I also remember Colony Wars . Those big ships took forever to defeat .

Metroid Prime final boss takes about 20+ minutes for skilled players.
The first time through, including deaths and retries, it probably took 3 hours to beat.

Actually I'd say most Metroid Prime, and Metroid Prime sequels, have at least three bosses in each game that take at least 10 minutes to beat. And on first tries they take a lot longer.

In the Monster Arena in FFX there were some creatures that took hours to beat even with all Aeons and the whole Parties Overdrives and limit break as well... Some of those fights were almost unwinnable

Omega Weapon from Final Fantasy VIII... He took me almost an hour to defeat. Maaaaybe because I was severely underleveled, but yeah. Took me an hour to finally get him to kick the bucket. Note to self - get Lionheart next time you want to beat him. XD
