I really like this game, but some of the boss fights were REALLY aggravating for me. First one that really annoyed me was vamp, because at first I didn't know what to do when he did that paralyze thing. I didn't know you could shoot down his knives and I didn't realize that he was no longer dodging your bullets at that point so I had him down to really low health a few different times and couldn't finish him and ended up dying before I figured it out. But I think the most aggravating is near the end, when you have to fight the metal gears. What the heck was kojima thinking when he made this boss? I haven't beaten it but I'm assuming you have to defeat all 25 metal gears. That is so over the top that I would be convinced you were joking if you told me that boss was in the game before I played it. Just WAY too long of a boss fight considering that you can't save in the middle of it and there are no additional health packs after the very beginning. On another note, what is with the save system? How exactly does it work, because my games never seem to save correctly |

when you fight the harrier. on hard mode it was the most annoying. it was hard to dogde attacks and the machine gun attack seemed endless. you don't have to destroy all the metal gears. there's a couple special ones that if you destroy them then the fight will end. just hit them in the leg and then in the mouth after it opens up. you usually have just enough time to dodge an attack after the time it should take you to fire 2 missles. and keep an eye out for the water cutter. if they try and use it then just shoot at the mouth right away since it's already opened. what problems are you having with saving the game? |

whoa, if you shoot in their open mouth you can one shot kill them? and i don't know what exactly the save problem is, i guess i just don't understand how it works. i will save in one place and then when i restart the game, i will be a ways back from the last place i was. when i noticed this was where you cross from shell 1 to shell 2. you have to disable the detonators, i saved at that point but when i restarted the game i ended up two struts back from that point |

Fatman, I just thought his character was rather annoying, haha. |

Yes, I'd have to agree with the above poster. Fatman's character was VERY annoying. |

Hmm, I'd say that the Harrier was the most annoying boss fight for me, especially on Extreme, as most of it's attacks are one hit kills. Lot of hiding needs to be done, either that, or use skills I don't have. The missiles it just fires in a wave when rushing you at long distances can be nasty. Do the Tengus count? If so, I wish to nominate them over the damn harrier. Angered me so much on Extreme, as Snake kept dying and I either ran out of ammo, or health. Always hate that part of the game. Vamp can be tricky too, until you learn the really fast and easy methods. New record for me today was 1:96 seconds.  Needs to be learnt though, and it's not a no kill, a shame.

shooting them in the mouth while they attempt to use the water cutter won't kill them in one hit but it does do a good amount of damage. it's like the equivalent of shooting their legs and then their mouth. that seems weird that you started at a different place. did you defeat the harrier and then save?

The Harrier just annoyed me. I think the most annoying 'boss' was Fortune. We knew we couldnt kill her in any way shape and form, and there didn't need to be a boss battle to prove that. There could have just been another video of her destroying shit. |

I have a question. I am at the battle with the Metal Gear Ray in normal difficulty, and according to what I have read on different sites, I should get a cut scene that ends the fight after destroying the first 5 rays. I have done this (I even went as far as destroying 8), but this did not end the fight. Anyone has any ideas as to why this may be happening? FYI - I am playing the Substance edition, on PS3. Thank you! |

The most annoying boss in Metal Gear Solid 2 was hands down Vamp. He wasn't really that hard, he was just annoying as hell. as for what you had to say Sebaf, You should get a cutscene after you defeat 8 Metal Gear Ray's. I have Substance edition as well and I have beaten it several times. It is my favorite one outside of 4. |

Thanks for the reply Sonny, maybe I am mistaken about defeating eight (I may have been fighting the eighth one when I die). I'll try again and see if it works. |

I too was annoyed with Vamp when I first played MGS2. I was playing on hard my first time through it and I couldn't beat him for ages. Took me weeks to do the battle with the MG Rays as well. Then I had trouble with the Solidus fight at the end. The other bosses were pretty easy though IMO. |

The paralize-knife-trick annoyed me too when I was going for a no-kills playthrough. Until I found this: Spoiler: click to toggle

I would say Fatman was the most annoying due to his skating around and having to diffuse the bombs. |

Never gonna give you up

Vamp was extremely annoying in that fight but it certainly showed us how strong and different he was . I just hated the fact that i knew he was gonna pop up again, and i had to play through every part expecting another massive fight. In the end though, it was a great moment. Fatman was ridiculous though... a fatman on roller skates who expects you to take breaks during a boss fight to stop explosives going off? I would have rather seen China man.

Fatman, most definitely him. On all levels of difficulty I played the game on, the boss battle with him was always the most time consuming and frustrating. Can't stand timed fights. |
