10 Big Video Game Boss Fights That Were Total Letdowns

6. Metal Gear Solid 4 €“ Liquid Ocelot Ray

Metal_Gear_RAY_(MGS4) Like each of the battles on my list, this one was a complete let-down. Picture this if playing games for days on end hasn€™t destroyed your imagination. You pilot a damaged run-down Metal Gear Rex pushing your way through Shadow Moses, only to come face-to-face with Liquid Ocelot and a charming machine Ray. Now, the thought of these two mechanical titans battling it out is one thing, but having the chance to control one yourself, sounded pretty bloody sweet. And yet the encounter was nothing more than Power Rangers style scuffle where Metal Gear€™s slightly grounded plot cut the remaining ties to this Earth and gracefully drifted away. You spend the fight kicking your robotic legs like an idiot only to have a lengthy cut scene that is so ridiculous it€™s like the writers€™ just gave up. What annoys me is the idea of going back to: Shadow Moses was a great throw back to the fans and it was a powerful scene, but ending it on with anime style battle was a hilarious disappointment.
