My Top 5 Most Annoying Bosses

Ok, now you know there is always at least one in videogames. Not a hard boss, per se, but a boss that makes you want to nerdrage your controller right into your 80 dollar flat screen and scream F*CK THIS SH*T!!!

5. Normal Type gyms from Pokemon

Yes, the pokemon is almost dead, so close.... Trainer used Full Heal.
........ "Pikachu, Thunder on the Trainer"

I swear, any game that has bosses that heal a ton like this in game when they are almost dead annoy the fuck out of me. Just die already!!!

4. The Larvae Queen from Hammerwatch

This one is simply annoying. It gives you little chance to fully dodge, and gets to the point where it is nearly impossible to make it to her without sustaining damage! At least the other one's gave me a chance, this one has spikes at the entrance that kill you in one hit!

He laughs at you too..... LAUGHS! AAGGHH!
3. Moldorm from A Link to the Past

This is a very typical boss to add on these lists, but I cannot deny that he is annoying. This has got to be the first boss that truly made me nerdrage. They knocks you into pits, and his only weakspot is a tail you can barely hit. And when he is almost dead, he goes faster!!!

2. Death from Aria of Shadow

This boss made me stop playing for a couple days. I kept trying to kill it, but to no avail. You attack it, dodge, attack, stock up on potions, level up, cry a lot, and try to not break everything. This boss is a tough piece of work. And it's level is far beyond that of every other boss battle. I got to it by level 18 without issue. I was level 35 when I finally beat him.

1. The T-rex from Tomb Raider

This motherf-ker made me almost break my computer screen. Once you figure out what to do, it is easier. But when it doesn't work properly, you just want to shoot the d-mn dino in the face rip off it's skin with your bare hands. Like in Pokemon, when you just want to grab the ball and force it closed to prevent the Pokemon from escaping.

Hammerwatch Review

What this game has to do with hammers, I have no idea. But it's fricken fun as hell!

You start off as either a paladin, wizard, warlock, or archer. A bridge breaks behind you and the main purpose is to find a way to escape. You fight monsters and huge friggen hard as hell bosses! You can do this with your attacks and skills, which you can upgrade with traders along the map. You learn combo's, increase defense and offense, and even buy more lives. Each upgrade makes your gameplay experience just a little smoother.

These guys are fricken annoying!
This is a hack and slash game, and basically, that's all you do. Hack, and slash. I usually play as a wizard or archer, because they are ranged, and use my skills and attacks to annihilate hordes of enemies. Try not to die though, because if you run out of lives, you have to start all the way from the beginning of the whole game!

You can play this game either with the keyboard, or a controller. Personally, I suggest investing in a Sixaxis paired with Motoninjoy, that way I am able to play like it's a real game. It also runs so much smoother on a controller as well. And the best part is, it's multiplayer! You get to play with up to 4 of your friends, or just random people, and play to your hearts content.

Now this game didn't have the best launch. The Multiplay still to this day has bugs, but once you do get it to work, it works wonderfully. All characters in game share the same number of lives. so if you only have 8 lives, and your partner dies 7 times, you need a new partner.

I would suggest this game to anybody who is interested in playing. I personally spend several hours playing this game when i get the chance. So if you like it, it'd be addicting.
