10 Video Game Boss Battles That Literally Hack Your Game

5. Nitrous Oxide - Crash Team Racing

If there's one cheap tactic that bosses can embody, it's the ability to soak up all the other attack moves of previous battles.

I mean, you've spent hours of the game pushing through intense situations, surely you deserve a break? Crash Team Racing doesn't think so.

Every boss has a different ability, such as placing multiple nitro boxes in your path. Nitrox Oxide uses them all in one annoying package. How is it fair that he's able to look back at what other bosses have used to attempt to stop me? The answer: it isn't.

If that wasn't enough, you also have the complicated and winding tracks to navigate through as you push yourself to reach first place. Crash Team Racing is known for its notoriously hard difficulty and precise controls, so having a complete boss bottle is ridiculous.

Adding in the factor that he's essentially a sponge for all the previous bosses skills is completely diabolical.

Racing through this battle and having the remember all the survival skills you previously inducted is a challenge, but beating this obvious hacker is a beautiful moment.
