Since you don't like orchestra then of course you're not going to like most music now a days in games. That said I found the music in God of War to be very intense and very brass heavy. I was about to post one of my favourites from God of War, but you won't like it. Not too many newer pieces rely on synthesizers. I say look into niche Japanese games that can't afford an orchestra.

I wouldn't say I don't like the orchestra just don't think it gets my blood flowing for boss fight music. Orchestras tend to have no beat and are melody based...I don't think it has to do with low budgets, orchestra or synths, its just the attitude of the music that matters. 

Here is videogame boss music influence found in a perfectly fleshed out modern song you'd hear on the radio - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJ5pMK7X3yU

The first minute of this would sound awesome in any action game, modern or classic.

I stick by my analysis.  You just sent me some dubstep, which is reliant on synths.  Reason I said "low budget" is because hiring an orchestra is pricey, using a keyboard saves lots of money.
