10 Most Unique Ways You Killed Video Game Bosses

The Metal Gear Solid franchise contains some of the most unique solutions to boss battles in the entire history of video games.

But considering that we all know about the Psycho Mantis controller port trick from the original game and how Metal Gear Solid 3 allows players to defeat The End by winding their system clock forward and killing him from old age, let's look at something a little different.

In the third game's forest battle against Predator-esque Cobra Unit member The Fear, there are numerous ways to dispatch the stealthy, fast-moving antagonist, such as using the feign death pill to get the drop on him, or using a combination of stun grenades and thermal goggles.

But by far the most creative means to do away with The Fear involves exploiting his status as a hunter-gatherer.

You can quickly score a stamina "kill" by throwing rotten and/or poisoned food out into the forest, which The Fear will seek out and eat.

This will immediately cause him to fall ill and lose a large chunk of stamina, while also allowing you to pop some tranq rounds into him and quickly put him down.

They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, and they're not wrong.
