Not every big bad comes packaged with a well designed encounter. Sometimes the difficulty balance is out of whack, sometimes the mechanics are just poorly thought out, and sometimes it feels like the developers forgot that games should be fun. Today we count down the absolutely annoying, the supremely sucky, and the punitively punishing boss battles.

A match-up that may very well answer: which is more natural, 'roids or mutagenic powers? Are they really all the same in the end? Will our judges get this philosophical in the actual episode? Guess you'll just have to find out!
Next Episode
King of Games '92 - Round 1, Match 6: Mortal Kombat vs. Contra III: The Alien Wars
