20 Infuriating Video Game Bosses Nobody Beat First Time

15. Deathshead (Wolfenstein: The New Order)

Relying on old school video game conventions, it only seemed right that Wolfenstein: The New Order should have finished with a tough-as-nails boss fight. Split into two parts, the first sees you destroying a couple of Zeppelins with anti-air guns while dodging the Nazi's attacks. However, while this is a rather tasking effort in itself (until you manage to get your bearings as to what the game actually expects you to do anyway), the real challenge doesn€™t come until the one-to-one face off against Deathshead himself in the second stage of the fight. Surrounded by engulfing flames and taking place in a mostly confined space that barely even fits the supercharged Nazi scientist, the boss fight can be a frustrating mess to navigate. The fact that Deathshead's lasers can completely rip through your armour and tear your health a new one doesn€™t help either, and the limited number of resources scattered around the level means that the even smallest mistake can result in an always frustrating restart.
