10 Gaming Bosses That ROBBED You Of Victory
1. Leon/Squall - Kingdom Hearts
Disney's unlikely crossover with Japanese role-playing giant Final Fantasy was the stuff of dreams for fans in the west, and Sora's journey through a smattering of Disney worlds lived up to the hype.
After arriving in Traverse Town, Sora, now wielding the Keyblade, runs into Leon and Yuffie. To fans of the Final Fantasy series, the pair will look familiar, and after a brief conversation with Leon about the power of the sword Sora possesses, the two engage in combat.
The tranquil town music is replaced by its intense battle theme as the Keyblade's might is tested by the iconic Gunblade. Leon's constant brooding and stoic aura leads the player to believe that this fight is not one that can be won, but the encounter can result in victory with well-timed attacks and strategic use of potions, but the win matters little, as Sora will fall down in exhaustion.
There's a score of tough boss fights that litter the Kingdom Hearts series, and Leon quickly becomes an ally, so the game snatching this victory from the players clutches isn't a huge loss, but the feeling of overpowering Final Fantasy VIII's hero would have been a great one.
