Do you agree?You'd think that it would be a matter of the gaming skill of the individual.

Is that Raiden IV?

Ikaruga and Gradius V are also CRAZY difficult with so many different things flying around the screen...

The three toughest game bosses I've faced:
Dr. Wily - Mega Man 7 (SNES)
Dracula - Castlevania III (NES)
Shredder - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES, the Ultra one, not the Konami arcade version)

Not sure.It didn't give it a name that I noticed.
 
I would have to say the last boss in the original Ninja Gaiden for NES. I tried and tried and tried.........

That video is absolutely ridiculous. Just a blur of bullets, hehe.

All of the Colossi from Shadow of the Colossus
This one's a no-brainer for anyone who's ever played Shadow of the Colossus. The Colossi require a mention on this list for their incredible scale. These are the biggest bosses to ever grace a gaming screen, and each one is impressive in its own right. And the way that you climb upon them and take out their weak points has never been accomplished so vividly in any other game. There's no point in choosing one best boss from -- they're all absolutely epic battles -- but we're going with video of the first Colossus, Valus, for this feature. Mainly because he has the distinct honor of being the first beast you encounter in the game and as such has caused the most number of peoples' jaws to drop over the years. He also has the distinct honor of being the boss that the most number of gamers felt remorse afterwards for having killing it.

Vader or Palpatine from the Force Unleashed. Not the hardest EVER, but very difficult.

Final boss from Metal Slug 3 is probably the hardest I've fought.

No way is that one better than the Rayquaza boss you fight in that game.
 
Yes the end boss in Shadow of Colossus is ridiculously hard until you figure out the strategy. But good lord that is an amazing game. Pretty much every boss in Ninja Gaiden Xbox is hair pulling hard, but very rewarding once you kick the crap out of 'em.
 
At this point in time, I can't recall an insanely hard boss to defeat. But to throw opponents out there that proved worthy.

In DoA 4, I had quite the trouble fighting Alpha at the end with the Spartan, when it was on hard.

I can recall a boss back in the long, long ago; when I was but a newb; and there was a boss who I spent ages fighting so much that my heart raced in my chest non-stop, and when I final gained victory, I almost fell to the floor in shock and pure awesome. But I think there were a few games I had that were like that. Like back in the day of playing SOul Blade, and tackling Soul Edge for the first time... now he just goes down easy.
 
Alma from Ninja Gaiden made me go a bit mental, though I did actually manage to kill her.

Ruby Weapon from Final Fantasy VII is just silly hard. No way I could beat that guy without Action Replay cheats xD.

Sephiroth in both Kingdom Hearts for the ps2. Never beat him, just tried a few times got my arse handed to me within a few seconds...
