10 Video Game Bosses REMOVED For Being Too Hard
4. Sky Chase Dragon - Sonic Adventure DX
Sonic Adventure is a certified classic among Sonic fans. It features plenty of fun levels, multiple characters for you to play, and a considerable amount of challenging boss fights. On the latter front, it even has some bosses that didn't make the cut, one of which was removed due to the undesirable level of difficulty it brought to an existing fight.
During Act 1 of Sonic's story, the player has to chase Robotnik's aircraft through the skies as his robotic minions shoot at you from all angles. The sequence is quite short and not very challenging, but that's because originally, the open sky behind Robotnik's carrier was supposed to be filled with more than just tiny drones.
The leftover files in Sonic Adventure DX reveal that the sky chase sequences were originally going to feature a massive two-headed dragon that would chase after Sonic and Tails, breathing fire and shooting lazer beams from its eyes.
If this sounds excessive to you, then you realize exactly why the developers took it out of the game. It turns out a robotic dragon with lazers is a cool concept, but it can be tricky to dodge on a puny little plane.
