8 Video Game Enemies That Required Perfect Playing To Beat

8. Lou - Guitar Hero 3

God damn this devilishly hard boss.

That's likely a less swear infused version of what many players screamed at their TVs while trying to beat the final boss of the absolutely stonking Guitar Hero 3: Legends Of Rock title, as while this right unit of red hellfire is one cool customer to look at, he sure will roast your coals quickly if you're not playing on point.

Set to the tune of The Charlie Daniels Band's cover of "Devil Went Down To Georgia" this battle is one that will make your fingers and gums bleed as you lose skin to furious shredding and teeth to sheer frustration.

On Expert difficulty, things will go South so quickly if you miss more than a few notes, something which is compounded greatly by Lou slinging debuffs your way such as obscuring notes or killing access to your fretboard until you can smash the whammy bar back and forth.

In fact, it's down to these powerups that this entry appears on this list, as you will NEED to play perfectly through these sections to survive Lou's onslaught as well as to earn your own counterattack. Take too long and the song will end in your defeat as well as simply risking the chance for more mistakes so you need to hit those powerups HARD and do so with perfection.
