I've seen a thread like this elsewhere.
It appears to have vanished.
So yeah, post your favorite game bosses from any game genre with a picture and reason.
Optional stuff can be things like a soundfile etc, too.
I'll start off with Ragnaros the Firelord from World of Warcraft, the Firelands:
I pretty much like him because of his story and his looks, but also because of that deep rumble of a voice he got.
I mean, look at him

As I was saying, his voice is also pretty awesome:

[i]Returning to battle as everyone's favorite gladiator, he slices, he dices, and carves up a mean dish. Please welcome, [b]Chainblade![/b][/i]

He may not be hard, but he sure does give that feeling of revenge and fun!

The Cyberdemon may be a joke now, but back when Doom was played with clunky controls on mostly non-responsive keyboards, this bastard was terrifying,
Here are some favorites:

These two were really fun to fight, the golden one only attacked using a roulette wheel that you had to stop yourself. Depending on where it stopped at, it could either hurt you or benefit you. But as the fight went on, it'd skew the odds more in its favor.
The final bosses for both Persona 3 and 4 were also really awesome and challenging though I don't wanna post pictures of them for spoiler reasons.

I love how this one makes you rack your brain to find ways to attack him since he adapts to each of your attacks, making it so you can't repeat them.

This guy was so fuckin hard, but once you figure out the trick to him, it feels so satisfying to wreck his shit

Quadraxis. Motherfucker was radical.

The hype build up before this boss is fucking top-notch.

nothing will ever be more frightening than
[I]looking for baal?
[/I]and then he one-hit kills you before you even loaded the chamber

Still haven't ever beaten him.[/QUOTE]

Probably my second favorite boss fight in the series next to the fight with The Boss at the end of MGS3 which was already posted.
It's sad that I can't think of any good recent bosses, most modern game bosses seem to be shit.

He's actually VERY easy if you ask me. Even without standing under his belly.
Still one hell of an epic and atmospheric fight

I love Heinrich
He was probably my most favorite boss in the old games I played.
Manus was my personal bane in Dark souls.
Artorias and Kalameet were tough aswell, but Manus managed to even get me kinda desperate.

This motherfucker right here on a stealth playthrough:
-snip-
damn wrong boss, meant this guy

Namir is the only boss you can take out in one punch.

The Rebel Flagship in FTL: Faster Than Light.
Spend the entire game running from the Rebel Fleet and then at the end you have to turn around and face this tough motherfucker. It took me 20-30 hours of gameplay until I got a playthrough where I beat it on Normal mode.

These two
Galbalan from Ys III as well as Galbalan on nightmare difficulty from the remake of Ys III (Ys: Oath In Felghana) and also Nyx from Persona 3. All extremely threatening bosses and all very fun as well.
Shao Kahn has kicked my ass so many times.

I loved all the bosses from Metal Gear Rising. The music makes them especially great.
I also liked the Gaping Dragon from Dark Souls, just because of its design.

The way it emerges also makes it look extremely threatening.
Shame, that it has very easy patterns to kill it though.
