Bayonetta was filled with great boss battles that struck a fine balance between cinematic awe and actual skill. Sin and Punishment 2 also qualifies for the same reasons. At least Japan still knows how to deliver on boss fights.

Ornstein & Smough from Dark Souls. Once fought them with a SL5 Pyromancer all by my onesies. Was epic to say the least (those extra SL's were all in Attunement for more pyro to kill Super Ornstein). Melee combat with them is always awesome, and I've co-op'd through it probably 30+ times already. Most of the bosses in that game (other than Pinwheel) are ridiculously awesome.

Really? Satsuki was a pushover for me. I use to toy around with him because he was overly aggressive and deflecting his attacks with a shield and front stabbing him was easy

Xenoblade's battle with Egil (2nd time). [spoiler] The most exhilarating part of the game: seeing a vision of the Bionis about to be struck by the Mechonis and you have to save it. Simply amazing. [/spoiler]

As others have mentioned the GoW3 and Bayonetta bosses are pretty fun. I quite enjoyed the final battle against Ghirahim more though and the battle against the real final boss in SS.

Only boss fights I can say I really enjoyed were the ones from No More Heroes 1 & 2. And probably Tower Knight from Demon's Souls, when I first saw him I just went "oh crap -_-."

I always had fun with Satsuki and Old Monk from Demon's Souls, and Gwyn Lord of Cinder from Dark Souls. The music for the Old Monk and Gwyn fights was perfect too.

The most satisfying, but also at times the most painful, was Ornstein and Smough from Dark Souls.

You're telling me you didn't enjoy Gears 2 last boss? It was punishingly difficult, and so long, and had to press so many buttons to beat it. Some games just make you hold a button down to beat a boss these days.

The final fight against Ghirahim from Skyward Sword is incredible. All three phases are fun, brilliant, have multiple solutions, and prove just how far motion controls can go.

<- Kidding, tho RAAM wasnt that bad tho. I did not enjoy Saren. Personally I really enjoyed the Randy from Dead Rising 2. Truth be told Dead Rising in general had fun and intersting bosses. Also liked Adam the Clown from DR1. Flamelurker was really hard but fun batle.

Almost every boss is just terrible.

The one exception is the bosses from Vanquish. They were good.

Snake vs Liquid.

Every other answer is wrong.

MGS4 - Solid Snake vs liquid Ocelot - YouTube

Though I would also accept God of War Cronos battle as well :P

God of War 3 - Kratos vs Cronos Boss Battle Pt 1 (HD) - YouTube

Now that's what I call epic.

Because hardly anybody has played Bayonetta I have to nominate it. The final boss from that game was freaking awesome, just like the rest of the game.

In addition, both the showdowns against GlaDOS and Wheatley are fantastic, albeit practically the same.

I love how the soundtrack goes into serious mode all of a sudden when you fight these bosses. Except for the Jeanne battles,those are groovy.
