Hey.
Don't know if there's already a topic for this, but I was just wondering.

Who do you think is the most fun boss, who do you think is the hardest boss, and why?

I'll start:
Maybe
Cheers!

Most Fun: First Balrog fight

Why: It was actually very entertaining to see how long you could dodge him for.

Most annoying: Ballos

Why: ...Hell takes out a majority of your health, why do you think?!

Most fun: Balrog (obvious)
Why: Funny actions xD

Most annoying (not the hardest btw): Monster X
Why: By the time you reach him, your polar star is probably only level 2. If your polar star was level 3 before you met him, it wouldn't stay like that for long during the battle. You get limited retarded n00b missiles that are slow $#% and the fireball just sux here.

Easy : Excluding first Balrog, Omega in Sand Zone.
Comment : Now you should thank Santa.

Fun : Balfrog.
Comment : Whee let's leapfrog the frog!

Harddd : Ballos 2nd.
Comment : It's way too much easier to get damaged here, even if it doesn't take as much as 3rd or 4th.

Annoying : Sisters
Comment : If you're a noob, you'd have to wade through shit again. Probably at least twice.


@Metal : Are you sure you never even considered Blade?

Easiest: Balrog 1
Why: ... He's the first boss? >.>

Most Fun: Toroko+
Why: I don't know either. I like running around. =P

Hardest: Monster X
Why: This was the boss I was stuck at the longest. I still have difficulties with him.

Annoying: Sisters
Why: Sometimes I can't stop their fire in time, and I suck at dodging their fire breaths.

Ballos: I find him not exactly the hardest, he's still hard though.

My list only counts on boss events, not what causes you to hate it, you mainly hate Ballos because of the hard ordeals you have to go through before reaching him.

Seconded. But then I learnt later on that you could just pass though the room without starting the fight and save on the other side so that you didn't have to walk as far. Learnt that a bit late though.

So I vote for Core. Drowning sucks.

Easiest: Mutated Doctor
Fly up into a gap in the ceiling with the Machine Gun and stay there (infinite hover), the fight is pretty much over after that.

Then again...

Easiest: 1st Balrog
Has anyone seen XristosX's "0 second balrog" video? :D

Okay, my turn,

Easiest: Curly
Why: Hop, spam, hop, spam, I dunno, its just really easy.

Most Fun: Miza
Why: Because she teleports! And makes minions! Awesome!

Hardest: Balrog 2
Why: Balrog 2 was extremely hard on my first runthrough. Really hard to dodge, and the terrain is abnoxious, because if you hide in that hole, he eventually lands on you... of course, now I know that you can just sit on him and spam the firebal...

I think I'm in a different time zone than you guys...

Cheers!

First time through Monster X was probably most annoying for me... now I find him one of the more fun ones.

I dunno. I enjoy most of the bossfights.

Most fun: Ballos III. Also the easiest. Well, not the easiest, but the easiest considering the location. I guess you could say that he tied with Omega for easiest.

Most annoying: Monster X. >.>
Most difficult: Ballos II.

Pooh Black is annoying too.

Easiest Boss- Igor. Just stand on the ledge near the forcefield and, as long as he doesn't jump up there, he can't hit you... Also, when he prepares that multi-shot blast, jump over him & shoot from behind.

Most Fun- Ironhead. It was a rather enjoyable twist to suddenly be able to move around & play in Shoot-Em'-Up mode, even for just a short while.

Most Annoying- Ma Pignon. I always got hit by those darn falling blocks... The island's blocks hate me... A LOT... The sudden 10 damage when charging instead of 1 was a rather hefty penalty, & the duplicates' 3 damage instead of 1 was definitely unforseen.

Most Difficult- Core. Especially on a 3 Life run. You not only have to worry about the shots, but potentially drowning, as well. It's a good thing Curly's there to help, however.

Just spam your bullets and destroy those shots. It saves more time.

I hate Monster X, but he wasn't as bad on my second Playthrough then my first, don't know why.

Ballos I have not beaten yet but it is very fun despite getting owned easily in the second part.

Balforg took me awhile, but that was because I thought he could only be hurt by missiles, then I found out and he was easy.

List of annoying bosses(not difficult):

Monster X
Pooh Black
Ma Piginon
Toroko

And this isn't a boss but finding Jenka's puppies.
