The bosses in kid Icarus:uprising were really good as well as lost planet. One of my favorites is from star fox 64 with the boss from the planet with the green water (not good with names) but you need to use bombs for most of the battle. The final boss in skyward sword is awesome as well. Wasn't too crazy about the bosses in gears of war.



The series that always had some of the most entertaining bosses are the Kingdom Hearts, Zelda, Pokemon, and Tales of (later on in the game) series. Luigi's Mansion 2 has some pretty good battles as well and are challenging.

Some of the worst bosses I've faced were in fighting games.

I'm sure there are plenty more I'm forgetting, but that'll do for now.

Wait...you didn't like Liquid Ocelot in MGS4?  I mean I'll admit the actual mechanics of the fight were not the greatest but that fight was like the greatest send off for a series ever!  The way Kojima incorporated changing health bars and music as it took you through each stage to match each game was amazing!  When the Snake Eater theme kicked in I was having a geekasm!  Sorry if it didn't hit home for you but man that's hard to believe it would be considered one of the worst.  I agree with the rest.

It was a great idea, I agree with that.  But actually playing it out was tedious, dull and annoying. 

I think I enjoyed watching it more than actually playing it.

I guess I get that, but looking back on it I always smile.  For some reason even a clunky 1 on 1 fighter thrown in at the end was still a great finale for me with that all the aesthetics taken into account.  Also the clunky controls reminded me of MGS1 lol

I still have nightmares about the Uncharted 2 boss fight.
Also many "recent" fighting games have just unfair bosses. DoA4, Tekken 6 & Street Fighter IV...
