I've been on a video game music kick with YouTube recently, so I figured we could all give this a try. Name your favorite FINAL boss music from any games you've ever played. Not mid-boss or level boss, but FINAL boss or important enough boss that they get a special theme. I'll name a few. Probably my first ever true favorite last battle tune was the Dr. Robotnik/Death Egg battle from Sonic 3. Classic. I've also got a soft spot for the two phases of the final battle with Ramirez from Skies of Arcadia. Part 1: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCFX0LDz1lc&feature=relatedPart 2: www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMHQkJ6kc8IFinally, last but not least, the ultimate boss theme that's been consistent for over a decade now: Dance of Illusions, the theme of Dracula in the Castlevania games. Here's the Castlevania 64 version, as well as the one from the prologue of Symphony of the Night.There are obviously plenty of others, but these have always just felt cool to me. And, for @#$%'s and giggles, I just dug this: |

Yes, cliched answer, but it's honestly my favourite.

My "obvious" answers: Dancing Mad from Final Fantasy VI or One-Winged Angel from FF VII. My less obvious answer: "The Poem For Everyone's Struggle"/"The Battle For Everyone's Souls" (I have seen both names used for the song) from Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3. I love this song (and the game, as some of you might have heard). www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdMhTL5bZrs |

Sonic 1 and 3 had great boss music, but I think it's time for 2 to get some love....
Another one of my favourtites was Cortex's theme from the first Crash Bandicoot....

Here's the music from that part in Silent Hill 2 where you fight two Pyramid Heads, it's called "Betrayal":
The final boss also has a very interesting theme song, but it's not on the original soundtrack. I'll try to find it from Youtube.

What about the Boss Music from Snake's Revenge, you know the NES game that was the "Unofficial" Sequal to Metal Gear. Very great music.

I always liked the final rival music in the original pokemon game, but it's not top of my lists ...
Ninja Gaiden on the Gameboy had a great final boss music.
As did R-Type (Often overlooked)
Of course my favorite would have to be Streetfighter 2 and Vega. You played it and got to Balrog who to be honest was always fairly easy to defeat ... but then your reached Spain and found yourself completely owned by the horrendously fast Vega and his claw. It really felt like the start of the boss battles and flamenco type music has never been so menacing.
