I'll never forget the first time the spider dropped down in Ocarina of Time.

Poseidon 3x. It STILL floors me to this day. It's both horrifying and spectacular. Easily the most epic thing that's ever been conceived in media, gaming or otherwise. That's how you kickoff a game.

I would say 2 times I was mesmerized on a game opening... FF IX and GoW3. Completely unshakable feeling.

Gomorrah in Bayonetta 2 that battle is like a final boss battle for most games so was the boss fight in Vanquish but have to mention Shadow of the Colossus as that changed the dynamic of boss fights in gaming.



From recent memory I'll say Pompy from Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, is a decent challenge for being a first boss, really fun and that music, god that music.

The first one that came to mind when reading the thread's title was Poseidon in God of War 3. That fight is really epic.

Sonic Adventure - Chaos 0



Is several guys here with a problem to understand the title or just want to say what they like?

The question isn't what is the best first boss fight, the question is the best OPENING boss fight. Most of what people said isn't fight on the opening of the game, that is totally not common.

I’ve honestly not heard of any of these.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Poseidon is the best opening boss fight, epic. I wonder if the new God of War will stick to tradition and open with a boss fight... hmm



Poseidon hands down
