Awesome Bosses/Metal Gear Solid: Difference between revisions

== [[Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater]] ==

* ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater|Metal Gear Solid 3]]'' gives us The Sorrow. He's an unusual boss, because he's {{spoiler|already dead}}. He's another in a long tradition of [[Hopeless Boss Fight|HopelessBossFights]]- you can only win by {{spoiler|trudging past the ghosts of everyon you've killed}}. He also has some of the best dialogue in the game before the fight.

** Made more awesome by the ghosts. If you kill a guy with a nutshot, he'll grasp his crotch and yell "I'm useless!" The prize for the most creative ghost goes to the one where you kill a sentry on a mountain, let a bird eat him, kill the bird, and eat it, the ghost appears with the bird on his shoulder crying "You ate me!"

* The End stands out. The End is a sniper around 100 years old, and is more or less capable of manipulating the natural environment. This, combined with the fact that he is the only boss to never kill Snake, makes him a tough but somewhat forgiving challenge. You can literally spend hours crawling on your stomach scanning the combat area, that spreads over three large open maps, with your gadgets to pinpoint his position before getting shot and he runs away to a new hiding spot.
