TG/PCE/Duo Boss Appreciation Thread

Image Fight 2 is one of the great games on the system. If you're going to spend the $$ to get it make sure you put in your time and play through the whole game. Lots of epic-ness throughout, a ton of strategy if you want any chance to 1CC it. Lots of great enemies, bosses and level design.

Yes, it's not that hard, I've done it. I Almost 1 life cleared it but died once. The last 3 bosses all go down with 1 shot if you have the right weapon (pick it up midway through stage 8 ). You just need to memorize the stages and pick the right weapons for the Boss battles. There are more difficult shooters on the engine like Rayxanber 2, I've beaten that one dozens of times but have still yet to 1CC. May have to try again this winter!

Edit - I made a quick Boss walkthrough and posted it here:

He should read the walkthrough I just posted. This guy never even took the time to learn how to switch the weapons! It's too bad he missed out on a great game.

Lol, 3/10? How moronic.

How about near the end of Rondo of Blood where you have to do a marathon of the Universal monsters.  One of the high points of the series.

While technically not a boss...but the Troll in the caverns beneath the dungeon in Beyond Shadowgate.  There's a few ways to get past him, so I won't spoil it..  But a couple of the events with him are funny.  One of my favorite memories.

Game is so F'n good. Very creative all the way through.
