Star Ocean 2 (psx) had the toughest boss ever. I had to fight him 4 times before I figured out that I needed to counterfeit an item to make my characters faster, before I even stood a chance. That was without the limiters removed. I can't even imagine how hard the final boss would've been with the limiters removed.

My brother was that moron. He took the limiters off. Idiot. He was faster than Claude with Bunny Shoes on. He was faster than Diaz' Air Slash. And if you cast a "target unit" spell on him, he could move out of the way before it hit...and those spells are supposed to auto-hit!

Needless to say, after seeing that, I took it nice and easy, and stayed away from the jerk's dead niece's spirit.

Super Metroid - Ridley

Maybe I don't have enough energy tanks or missles or something, but this guy keeps tearing me a new one. =/

EDIT: How ironic. I just post this and then I go and beat him.

On to Mother Brain I go.

Lavos was a pushover compared to the guy from SO2. Though, he's got some nasty fight in him. And damn Square for hiding his true freaking weak-point!!!

Zero Gunner 2 - Call it easy all you want, but the last level surpasses any other Psikyo level in terms of difficulty (yes, even Gunbird 2, and actually much more so than any, unless you get into the second round levels). The last boss isn't so hard, but the level is killer.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on NES. Goddamn whore ass shit the Technodrome was then you get to Shredder with hardly any life. I still finished it but goddamn.

Anyways, I'm sure its easier now but thats one I remember being a bitch.

Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2 also get props from me.

You know its a hard game to beat when you really want to do it and your heart starts pounding as you almost killed off the boss. I havent had that feeling from any game in a while.

My problem with Final Fantasy games is that the first time I play through I go as fast as possible just to see the story, and get everything on my second time through. I really rushed through FFX, without getting any extra stuff, and it took me like 2 hours to beat the last boss. Then I played through again and got all the extras, and killed him in 2 attacks.

FF4 was easy. I remember being at a friends house and watching him die on the final boss about 5 times, then he let me try and I beat him the first time.

FF5 was easy.

FF6 was easy.

FF7 was easy.

FF8 was pretty tough because I hated that game but wanted to beat it, so I rushed through it. (Damn now I'm reminded of how absolutely heinous that game was. What a complete fucking piece of shit.)

FF9 was easy.

Chaos in FF1 was complete luck.

Xenogears was a BITCH. I would've never beaten it if I hadn't found the secret shop in the last cave.

Ninja Gaiden was fucking HARD, but NGII was EASY, and III was pretty tough.

Oh, yeah, Castlevania was damn near impossible. I only beat it once, and I'm still amazed to this day that I got through it.

Oh yeah, almost forgot. The "hidden" boss in Demon's Crest, the Dark Demon. *screams from terror at the thought of trying to beat it again*

I can remember that, had to get everything in the game to fight him, let alone last 5 min. If I'm gonna fight another boss like him again, my head is gonna explode!

for awhile, I was having trouble with dracula in castlevania 3, but I finally managed to beat him after about what, 10 tries? oh yeah, I'm having enough trouble with hard mode in DMC, can't get past the phantom for some reason.

Jet Force Gemini and Contra: Shattered Soldier made me go crazy 2X. After tons of tries and continues, I gave up. Maybe someday I will beat both.
