10 Video Game Fights You Didn't Know How To End

4. Two Pyramid Heads - Silent Hill 2

Silent Hill 2 introduced players to the now-fan favourite antagonist Pyramid Head, a terrifying-looking stalker enemy who re-appears several times throughout the game to torment protagonist James Sunderland.

But just before the game's final boss, players encounter Pyramid Head one more time - or rather, twice.

Your final outing with Pyramid Head will see you taking on two versions of the monster, and given that your previous face-offs with a single Pyramid Head were tricky enough, the prospect of fending off two at once seems practically impossible.

They move fast and their attacks can kill you in a matter of seconds if you're not paying attention, but the trick to ending the fight is to simply survive until an invisible timer runs out.

This can result in players low on ammo running around the room for a ludicrous amount of time until the Heads finally impale themselves and end the fight, while those stocked up can reduce the countdown with every shot they successfully fire at the creatures.
