7 More Video Game Bosses That Forced You To Cheat

2. The General - Kaiser Knuckle

When it comes to utter cheese lord fighting game final bosses most people immediately start throwing their shoes at the likes of Shao Khan, Jinpachi and of course, Gill, who I swear has done more irreparable damage to my family name than even Jack "Hobo Stabber" Gill and that guy strangled dogs!

However, all of these actually pale in comparison to the General from the oft-forgotten title Kaiser Knuckle, although after facing off against this despot you might see this as a moment of collective repression as nobody wants to remember the beatdowns this guy doled out.

To put it bluntly, this guy cheats. A Lot.

for a start, he's got all of the hallmarks of a horror show boss, teleportation, multiple ghost form attacks, instant grabs, and relentlessly punishing combos, and he wastes no time in putting all these to good use. It's a struggle to last ten seconds with The General let alone beat him, but if you are dedicated to finding victory, you're going to have to pray you're not lactose intolerant, as there's a whole load of cheese to scoff.

Of the few who have actually bested this beast, the common thread seems to be working towards a stun lock as soon as possible, clipping the general with a jumping kick to low kick to uppercut and repeating ad naseum. It's a format that throws any skills relevant to your character out the window as no matter who you play as, this is the ONLY way to beat this boss.

One tactic, one shot, one massive middle finger of a boss that deserves to be cast into space.
