The last boss in FF8 was the hardest one I have ever meet on my first playthrough.
Runner up is Kefka from FF6... didn't have ultima magic my first time... enough said 
Sure when you play the same again it's often really easy beacuse then you pretty much know from the start what you should do., what not to equip or something similar.
If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing

And shepherds we shall be,
For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints
