Which Boss (Main Antagonist) Death was the most enjoyable?

[Dewey Carmine]

All of em were enjoyable but Myrah was the best. The Extra enemies added difficulty. While you and a bud take down Myrah, the other two kill the extra enemies

[concordvader]

From the story I would say the Queen

[N1ssassa]

RAAM, not even a question. Myrrah was tough, and it was a great battle with a lot more going on than the others, with the locusts attacking from all sides and whatnot, but I beat her the first time. I couldn't beat RAAM for two days on casual, and it made me so furious I had to quit for a bit. Part of that is due to not realizing there was a torquebow sitting in the room before him, and part of it was just sheer difficulty. His death was a lot better, too. Blew his jaw out of socket, sent him falling off of a cliff, then blew him up with a bomb. Was awesome.

[Carmine's Bacon]

As a man who beat all Three games on Insane by myself I'd say It's a tie between Raam and Myrrah... They both made me RUN LIKE CRAAAAZZZYY!!!! Although as a solo gamer that was pretty much all you could do.Dom just constantly charged in to fight Raam and getting knocked down right after you revive him,Leaving you to pretty much fight him,the kryll,the reavers and his ridiculously overpowered troika (which he somehow was using like an smg???).

Then you have Myrrah,A boss that has constant allies coming to back her up,A near indestructible battlemount which is destroying a building you need protecting(meaning you can't just evade and widdle her down slow like Raam) and the ability for said battlemount to use a big area effect that can vaporize anything in front of it if you aren't in cover correctly...Not even sure how I beat her on Standard campaigne.(meaning no super-reload or infinite ammo)

[Cgusmc]

I beat all three on solo insane but none gave me the satisfaction like myrrah gave me. I literally yelled at the screen various curse words when I beat her. It was the hardest thing I've done in any game.

[:-D]

Skorge because the bastard killed Tai.

[J0RD]

Was great to see Myrahh die, Skorge also because he didn't give me a worthy battle and deserved to die

[DanTheGamer11]

Probably Raam, Skorge was meh since you didn't really fight him and Myrahh.. The hard thing about her battle was the foot soldiers.

[osowanted]

Well actualy The queen was hard had done it b/c it glitchd where no pg popped out so it was a 4v2 and we won. After that me and a bud did raam on hardcore to unlock insane first raam was easy on hardcore he was super easy on insane

The Queen without a doubt! Loved the plunge of the knife!

[BEAMER3K]

I think the majority will say RAAM. That SOB was so hard to take down. Took me a good while to finally kill him.

I agree, trying to kill RAAM on Insane took almost every round in the Longshot sniper rifle, all of your grenades, every arrow in your Torque Bow, and every round in your Lancer and Gnasher. It took like TWO or THREE hours to kill that bastard. The Kryll, and his Troika didn't help to make things go over any smoother, and didn't make things go quicker when it came to trying to kill that bastard.

[Perkinator2001]

RAAM Mryahh Skorge

[GeneralGreasy]

RAAM easly. He's by far my favorite character in Gears, and one of my favorite villians in fact. But my god that asshole just doesnt die. I remember I actually gave up on playing Gears 1 because I couldnt beat him. I came back and played the game a few months later and I finally beat him after several attempts. Just to see what it was like, I tried fighting him on Insane. I didnt last a minute =\

Skorge was just outright pathetic.

Myrrah was a decent challenge, especially when my Hammer of Dawn kept running out and I'd get downed by her every 5 seconds trying to find a new one.

Beating a ridiculously hard boss really gives you that sense of triumph.

[dude527]

I don't understand why people say RAAM was impossible, even on Casual. He was quite easy on Casual, a decent challenge on Hardcore, and downright difficult - near impossible - on Insane. But I remember him only being truly difficult on Insane mode. I've even beaten him recently on Hardcore, and he was not difficult. Also, he wasn't a genuine challenge in my opinion - a lot of my deaths at his hands felt cheap. For example, his Troika being able to down me in seconds, compounded with the fact that I HAD to move when I died. Also, I remember plenty of times when I would move to avoid RAAM and his Kryll would devour me, even though I took cover behind a pillar with a freaking light literally RIGHT UNDER my feet. So yes, RAAM was difficult. But in concept, he really wasn't. All it was was a survival contest. You take cover on one side of the train, taking shots at him in between volleys of his, until he gets close enough for you to go "EASY, BOY!!", and then you sprint to the other side of the train. Rinse, repeat. Very little legitimate "skill" involved, and most of the deaths were by complete and utter chance while I was moving from one side of the train to the other. It all felt very cheap, in my opinion. RAAM was just a really beefed up Drone with a Troika - he didn't feel like a boss fight. This was all at least in my experience. Note: it might be a little distorted, since the last time I beat RAAM on Insane was in 2006...

So with that all said, I voted Myrrah for this poll. In my opinion, boss fights are MEANT to be like Zelda boss fights. That is, extremely cinematic, and yet also pretty difficult and unique. That's one of the reasons I was disappointed with RAAM. He, overall, felt like a huge Drone that was a lot harder to kill. I was super happy when they made Skorge's boss fight a lot more ceremonious in Gears 2, but after I finished the game, I realized that I felt like the pendulum had swung a little too far, and they ultimately made the fight way too easy - replacing legitimate challenge with scripting. It was more cinematic, but it just didn't feel like there was a good enough portion of gameplay there. So when Myrrah came along, I was really satisfied. Her boss fight - its circumstances - reek of ceremony. It's the last stand of both the COG and the Locust against an ever-encroaching infection. For both factions, it was indeed a siege. But despite this fact, the boss definitely also felt enough like a "common" enemy to ground the sequence in good gameplay, unlike Skorge. And on Insane, the section just felt truly impossible with anything less than a 4-player party. Top this all off with the verbal confrontation between Myrrah and Marcus at the end, compounded with the Queen getting DOM'S knife in the abdomen, and there was enough character in the boss fight to wrap it all up satisfyingly. So Myrrah's fight, to me, was definitely the best middle ground the series has struck yet between being cinematic and exciting, yet also having excellent gameplay in a boss fight.

[RAAM 27]

Its between Raam or the Queen

[Cosmic Axe]

Myrrah's death was the most satisfying for me. I hated her from the first time I heard her voice in Gears one and hated her even more after I saw her for the first time in Gears 2. Her character was just arrogant and evil. Watching Marcus stab her with Dom's knife was priceless. I couldn't think of a better way to end the Gears storyline. Raam comes in close 2nd. His bossfight was tough, but other than him being a General in the Locust army, I didn't know anything else about him until the Raam's Shadow DLC dropped. Yeah, he killed Kim, but that was too early in the game for me to care and besides, Kim's character was a little too uptight for my tastes so in retrospect, I'm kinda glad they killed him off early. Skorge's bossfight and death was a letdown, plain and simple.

[jutkendokenobi]

for me, it will always be the coward Raam, plugging his ugly lizard face with a hail of bullets from my lancer was the most satisfying boss kill i have had on Gears.

[INSANE RUMBLER]

The tempest- because it took me f***ing ages on insane and it meant i had finished the insane campaign

[brent16161]

The only reason it's hard is because of the Palace Guards shooting at you while you're trying to avoid the Tempest's heat breath.

I dont get why the palace guards dont due from the heat breath

[IsmaR]

I dont get why the palace guards dont due from the heat breath

You probably don't know Friendly Fire exists.

[ValeraPitiesDaFool]

for me, it will always be the coward Raam, plugging his ugly lizard face with a hail of bullets from my lancer was the most satisfying boss kill i have had on Gears.

Coward? Uh no, as much as I dislike RAAM, he is NOT a coward. He went on the front line with his soldiers.

[CARMINE COG]

RAAM of course.

[Judg3mentDrag0n]

Going to go with RAAM.

[GearsPro23]

RAAM.

Skorge was a pushover and Myrrah was tough to beat,but RAAM that was actually Insane.

[mmartina]

General RAAM 1st time playing Gears it took me like 15+ times to beat him

[brent16161]

You probably don't know Friendly Fire exists.

Exactly my point, if friendly fire exists, then the queen should be able to kill the palace guards

[brent16161]

And i definitely have to go with raam, he was badass, and tough as hell, i dont know anyone or anything else able to lift a goddamn TROIKA!!! But i dont know if it will be for long, i dont know wht gears judgement has for us

[SleepzBlu]

Marcus should've chainsawed that ***** in half.

[ValeraPitiesDaFool]

Marcus should've chainsawed that ***** in half.

That ***** made the series happen... and made it good...

Just sayin'.

[Bedameister]

Of course beating RAAM on Insane was just a great moment, but when Marcus stabbed Myrrah with Dom's knife that was just epic.

[Phenomenal]

Defeating RAAM on insane was bittersweet.

[xl IP0IP SH07 lx]

Has to be Raam.


Old School: Show Love, Get Love.

[Marceant]

the queen cause she caused the deaths of billions of people

[taffenaff]

I don't understand how much luck I must have had because I think Skorge was the hardest on insane. but Myrrah's death was the "best"

[NightmareOmen]

I'd have to go with Raam. A friend and I tried to beat him multiple times (I believe on insane, I can't remember for certain). My friend finally managed to grenade tag him and the explosion killed Raam, but downed my friend. I was already down by this point as well... We got all excited when it went into the cut scene... but then the screen turned red and informed us that we had failed. When we did finally kill him it was a satisfying, very satisfying.

[John Matrix]

Has to be RAAM on Insane solo, after around 80 consecutive deaths, I was frothing with rage, so finally beating him was just a phenomenal feeling.

[Gnashty NaS]

Myrrah just because she was a huge pain and I really liked the cutscene after defeating her.

[Clayman XIII]

Myrrah for me, loved that fight and it was a good end to the trilogy.

[Theronmaster]

myyrah for me.
