What's your's?
Mine would have to be The End boss battle in Metal Gear Solid Three. Pure Epic so it was.

That frog thing from Mario 2. Think it was the 1st game I ever completed
Throwing turnips into his mouth did the trick. He was so evil vegetables killed him

Psycho Mantis from MGS
Penance from FFX (even for the fact that it took around 60 extra hours playing the game to be good enough to face him)
Kefka in FFVI
Colossus in GoW2
High Dragon in Dragon Age: Origins
Frickin' loads more but I can't remember

Sephiroth?
This one was pretty cool
God Hand had some cool bosses too.

freaked the shit out of me.
I don't think any game series does boss battles better than Metal Gear.
Bowser in Super Mario World on the SNES.
Couldn't work out what to do for ages (throwing the little squashed gremlin things up in the air at him). I was only 7.

Remember these guys?
Hex Lord Malacrass in Zul Aman, WOW:TBC. The strategy involved was fantastic, so much to learn and it needed 10 men doing exactly the right thing at the right time.
shin akuma in alpha 2, getting to him was brutal enough but then seeing him dismantle you in less than 10 seconds was just soul destroying
meeting the tower knight in Demons Souls for the first time was awesome, he had a stupidly cheap method of beating him though
the hydra in GOW was/is epic

Twinrova in the Spirit Temple and the final Ganondorf battle in Ocarina of Time were both great.
The guy you played rock, paper, scissors with in Alex The Kid
I remember that Nick. Ferocious battle to the death
Dr Robotnik on his ship in the sky.
I love you man
feck those guys. Fat laughing son of bitches that bitchslap people. Hate those guys. Hated the ninja guys more.
I'd like to think that the final battle in Mass Effect III will become one, the big letdown of the first two games is that the boss battles were far too easy.
That game was what first came to mind when I seen this thread.
I also liked Dr. Robotnik like Zarlak said.
Also M Bison on Street Fighter, and that wimpy old man on Two Crude Dudes
The legend of Zelda - Final Battle
Onyxia - WoW (more to the fact getting 25 people to do it right)
Sephiroth - FFVII (don't want it to end)
Tyrant - Resident Evil I

That sonofabitch, I hated that guy.
Against Rex in metal gear solid
Great call on Psyhco Mantis. The whole put the controller on the floor spiel was a first.
Likewise the Scarecrow bits in Arkham Asylum deserve similar praise.
On a personal level Doku from Ninja Gaiden was a complete cnut but rewarding as hell to finally beat.

Anything on that game is pretty much complete cnut.
Oh, and how can we forget the old king in demon's soul
I actually found Ripto a lot easier than Gulp. Ripto I have defeated without getting hurt (and so get an extra life), Gulp I have only achieved that with the super flame.
I enjoyed fighting the Aigaion in Ace Combat 6

Do they have it in PS3?
Ace Combat 6 was XBox360 exclusive from memory
Eva, Auf Wiedersehen!
Shredder in TMNT III: The Manhattan Project on the NES. Got all emotional watching this 
Psycho Mantis in MGS. That was something else. Dont think its possible for any game to top that for me.
Some great boss battles in WoW as well. Ragnaros fight in MC was pretty cool first time. Twin Emperors in AQ. Four Horsemen in Naxxramas (40 man). Special feeling of teamwork that.
Oh and fecking GARY OAK when he comes after the Elite Four are defeated and I have one Blastoise with 20% HP left.

Shadow of the Colossus should not be taken into as the entire is about killing bosses.
I've played so many games (like many of you) and it is a hard question to answer but the obvious (current) one I have in my head is the battle against Poseidon in GOW III.
The best start to a videogame ever

I also wanna mention the fight against the sniper THE END in MGS3 Snake eater
wow, this is the toughest games question so far. For me R-Type first level boss. Not because it was hard (once you worked it out) but when it appeared for the first time I think I cacked my pants.
Thought Hades was the best fight in GOW III myself.
