Star Fox Boss Battles Favorites/Dislikes


StarFoxMaster64

Recommended Posts

As we all know, the Star Fox series has spanned out so much in the past few decades, some good, some bad, some weird. Either way each game had a set of boss battles. I type this today to ask the community, what is your favorite and least favorite boss battles of Star Fox? They can be from any game too.

 

Personally my favorite is Gorgon from Area 6 in Star Fox 64, I just felt of all bosses he actually had the coolest weapons. 

 

My least favorite has to be Plasma Hydra from Star Fox SNES, the Sector Y boss. Back when I was a kid that boss used to beat the crap outta me, I found it harder than the Great Commander even.

Hell yeah, Gorgon is always a blast to fight. Another favorite of mine is the Zoness boss in 64. Even after so many years, I still panic when fighting that thing. The near constant bombardment of stuff it throws at you coupled with the dark environment and the Blue Marine's low (compared to the Arwing anyway) mobility makes for a hectic fight. I also like the bossfight in Assault's second level; It's not difficult, but I love the concept of maneuvering the Landmaster on top of the boss to be able to strike it's weakpoint. I'd love to see more enemies like that in the new game.

Least favorite is easily the big walking tube thing from Assault's fourth level. Slow moving, can only attack by spewing weak mooks, and only takes three bombs down the stuffhole to kill it. The only threat is from the time limit (which is probably why the time limit is there to begin with, to add tension the actual boss was incapable of providing).

I'm a big fan of any dogfighting duels, such as the fight against Star Wolf on Venom and that satellite on SF64 (I can't remember
the name of the satellite :facepalm: ) and on Fichina in SF Command.

Oh yeah, and the boss on Macbeth from SF64 as well. I just love how you blow most of the train to smithereens before the conductor
of the train whips out his special surprise.

​NO HIT THE BRAKES!

​Oh my goodness this boss made me mad... It was like all epic like "Woah something cool!" then all of a sudden it's just a walking sewage line spewing unwanted waste that could explode in... Wait... the timer is still going... Are we done yet? I have to agree, my least favorite boss in Assault.

I love the Starwolf fight on Venom II, best dogfight in the series.  Also the bolse core for the sheer crazyness when Starwolf is added into the mix.

Least favorite is that boss from SF1; the one fought in Venom's orbit on the bottom route, for the frustrating hit detection.

I don't know if this counts as a proper boss, but I HATED that button mashing bullshit against Muscle Foot in Star Fox Adventures. That made me rage. On the flipside I thought the Drakor fight was actually pretty cool. SF64? Zoness, Area 6, MacBeth and Granga.

Any Star Fox games count for this list :)  Also that's kind of a mini-boss so it counts.

 

Also as for the Venom orbit bosses, I actually really enjoy the Great Commander from Star Fox SNES, I thought it was kind of like destroying a Super FX star destroyer, lol.

Favorite boss? The Imperial Star Destro--OH I mean the Venom Battle Ship from StarFox 2, where you board that mother and blew it up from the inside and fly out, seriously how come you never do ANYTHING like that in ANY of the other games? I also liked the StarWolf Dogfight in Assault, even though they like to all gang up on Fox. Either that or the Aparoid hornet thingy that destroys Andrew, oh and I loved fighting that one guy from Sector Y on SF64, he's definitely my favorite now that I think about it. COCKY LITTLE FREAKS!!! I had that as a ring-tone for awhile, funny as hell when somebody texts you at a random time.

LEAST FAVORITE:.....Pigma from Command, Pigma from Assault and I used to have a burning hatred for that dinosaur thing on Titania in 64, I didn't like the 64 Andross either until he became a gigantic brain with tentacles.
