8 Video Game Enemies You Never Got To Fight!

Ok so let's set the scene here.

You've just made your way through the original Halo and have just managed to get the stains out of your shorts which seem to have materialized right around the same time that The Flood was introduced to ruin everyone's day. You've destroyed the ring harder than if you'd fed it laxatives right before a curry eating contest, and you are standing proud as the big can of man spam known as Master Chief.

Yet what's this? The Flood have a leader? And it's called The Gravemind? And it looks like if Audrey II from Little Shop Of Horrors was suffering from mange? Ok well consider my shorts RE-BROWNED and sign me the hell up!

However, alongside some other disappointing aspects of the Halo 2 and 3 storylines, the player never actually gets to fight this colossal coil of evil cunning and instead has to simply watch the game flush it down the space toilet via a cutscene once a modified Halo ring is activated. Due to the often convoluted plot, it always seemed like the Gravemind would end up being the final boss of the series, but all hopes of a monster vs metal man battle were nipped in the bud.
