10 Games Where You Are THE BOSS [Part 3]

Thumbnail too powerful

Control does have a hover limit. Once you've powered it up its virtually constant but it doesn't start like that. Admittedly if you dump points in it early then you can basically fly before you get a quarter way through. It does make you feel fantastic though. Flying, dodging, ripping out scenery and throwing it, slamming into the ground. Its pretty awesome.

I feel like the boss in LOTR shadow of mordor! Just the way the enemies talk about you and how you can scare them into fleeing - I love it!

Control is a really good one. When you start full flying and THROWING FORKLIFTS WITH YOUR MIND, that's definitely a boss.

The darkness 2 was one of the most fun games that I've ever played,you totally feel like a boss in that game when ripping people apart,it deserved a part 3,so sad that we never got to see it.

Vader's rampage at the end of Rogue One was the best Vader scene in all of the movies

V from Cyberpunk 2077 definitely deserves an honorable mention.

Ghost of tsushima should be on here. Jin becomes a boss. The enemy becomes afraid of the ghost,they talk about the ghost and what he does etc. And especially when activate ghost mode (I think thats what it's called, when u click in both joysticks)

Happy Thanksgiving to any fellow Canadians watching today! We celebrate it in October because we use the metric system. I'll be using Boss level turkey carving skills today, so thanks for amping me up!

The Darkness games are severely underrated. We need a 3rd one.

For me, Control is absolutely top tier superpower gameplay mechanics. It really doesn't get enough credit it deserves.

It made me so happy to see Transformers: War for Cybertron in this top 10 list, a game that's not mentioned much. I absolutely love that game, a total masterpiece along with the sequel! I still have the original copies, and I agree with your reaction towards it, Falcon.

Glad to see Evil west getting a spotlight, this game is so fun.

It just feels great running through everyone like your the hardest boss in a souls game instead of getting absolutely demolished like a common enemy everytime you play 😭

In the Fallout: New Vegas DLC Lonesome Road, you are acknowledged as so powerful that even the deadliest of enemies won't go near you on your way out, so they just do a cut scene explaining it.

Skyrim should be on here- You're basically just a survival horror boss for every bandit you come across. Also, just wanted to thank you guys for the consistently good content. I'm watching this from a bunker as my country's getting bombed, and y'all are really helping me get through this.

I think when I played Cyberpunk, I felt bits of Crysis and Far Cry with the way you can approach enemy bases and combat, especially with the cloaking ability.

Since you added a Final Fantasy game to the list, I would nominate FFXV as well as allowing you to pretty much be the boss by the end of the game, especially the post-game dungeons. The Black Hood that you get from Pitioss Ruins allows Noctis to auto-dodge attacks. Combine this with the Ring of the Lucii, which has an attack that can suck enemies into a vortex and that's already a pretty powerful combo. But you can take it up a notch further by using the Ring to farm the Adamantoise. The items given from this can be crafted ro create the strongest of the magic spells. If you went through Pitioss as well, that gave you an opportunity to collect a decent amount of Oracle coins which can be traded to get pink ribbons that nullify all status ailments. And lastly, ensuring Ignis learns the Lasagna al Forno recipeh. This nullifies all elemental damage and stays in effect for a pretty long time. So, now you have a character that is much harder for enemies to hit, can't be felled by pretty much any status ailments, has the strongest magic attacks, you're impervious to most magic attacks being cast on you, and you have a Ring that can one-shot most enemies in a room (and even the Adamantoise takes about 15 minutes or less to defeat with the Ring). All of this made the extra dungeons at the end of the game pretty damn easy and I don't think I died to any of the bosses.

I know it's not quite as OP as those in the other games covered in parts 1,2 and 3, but feel that Boss moment when you get transformed into a Big Daddy in Bioshock. To go from fighting one (and easily getting killed at the start of the game), to being one was awesome. I can't recall now if you got to keep you plasmid powers, but I think you did. Even more insane.

The Darkness games don’t get enough respect and attention they were such an amazing concept and there’s really nothing like it. Yea there’s parts of it that fall in line with traditional shooters but the over all aesthetic of them and the story and the things that make it completely different are amazing. I would love to see remasters or a reboot of these games. I would be extremely psyched the see them remastered or rebooted or even a third game and done right, not just as a big money ploy.
