Yeah, but it was weak against shotgun ice and so were its spawns.

and once you beat it, you were jaded to the annoyingness of the other bosses.

The problem is that he occasionally gets me in the corner... and provided I can kill that form, we still have psycho-jumping spider-head to deal with.

Then again, I'd probably end up dying trying to beat the Core... stupid fucking core... just a nuisance...

I'm an hour into Jak 2. I dont know why that person though I was a fan of the series just because I played through someone else's copy (of the first one) real fast.

MFD? Jumping spider head form? Wuh? I find no record of this in the FAQs I checked...

Regardless: The spider will come down from the top of the screen to the bottom of the
screen on strands of green spider web. When it gets to the bottom and opens
it's red part on it's abdomom, blast it with Shotgun Ice. Sometimes it will let
down spiderlings, just destroy them with charged X-BUSTER blasts.
ALTERNATE STRATEGY: When fighting the Spider boss on the first Sigma stage,
you can tell where it will go, if your eyes can scan fast. I noticed that it
takes EVERY green connecting line it comes to. The best strategy (works for me)
is to stand in the middle and charge your X-Buster. When the green connecting
lines pop out, quickly follow, starting from where the spider is, the path it
will take. If you can scan fast enough, move to the EXTREME OPPOSITE side of
the room from where it will go. When he gets to the ground, time your X-Buster
shot so that it hits him. *Also, it speeds up gradually as you damage it,
making it progressively harder (*I can't remember, but you might have included
that).

He's still talking about the Metroid Fusion boss. We got sidetracked with the Megaman X boss when I went on a little rant about spider bosses.
There used to be an image here telling you to vote, but then Photobucket, the image site made to allow you to do third party hosting, no longer allows third party hosting without throwing a shitload of money at them... and I can barely afford to eat. So no you get some text of me bitching about it, yaaay! Also, go vote.

Oh. Well, cores are easy. Fire rapidly with your gun regardless of whether or not you do damage to knock X thinggies out of him, jump over him, grab the stuff, and then proceed to kick its arse.

There was an X boss that was a spider, called, intuitively, Web Spider. I forget which game he was from but it was probably around the X5 numbers.

X4, but seeing as I havn't played that game I can't ascertain how difficult he is to beat. Knowing my X games, I'd say moderate without any stuff, easy if you use a weakness weapon or armor upgrades.

From what I've seen of his attack patterns (I've only watches a speedrun so I can't be sure) he seems fairly easy.

He was the first boss I beat that game, no trouble at all.

They're all easy.

With the exception of Magma Dragoon and Storm Owl, the only two bosses from that game I respect.

...the stingray dude's level was fun though.

Grr... I hate this chase scene. First really challenging one all game.

(For the first several, Samus stays hidden while SA-X clears stuff. Then I had to lay a Powerbomb and run the hell away. But... he's in the way this time...)

Spider boss in Fusion I ended up handing my gameboy over to a friend; I had mastered getting there from the last savepoint at max health... stay near the center of the room if you can to avoid cheap trapped in a corner shots, and apparently the way it moves is predictable. Or so I'm told.
Hey, the comic seems to be updating kind of regularly. Maybe we should vote to spread the word.

The one Megaman X Boss I was talking about before was from the first game... I think he may have been the first boss in Sigma's castle, but I can't remember. I imagine he's not too hard, but he always gave me a hard time. Mostly because of that "grab and smash you into the ground while you can't do a damn thing about it, hahaha, oh look, since I was in a corner, I grabbed you again!"

...

...stupid spider bosses...

Thats the one I've described like a dozen times allready Carmichael.

You can predict exactly where he's gonna land.

He goes down those webs and TURNS AT EVERY SINGLE OPPORTUNITY. It doesn't take particularly quick eyes to trace the path he takes in advance. Theres no sensical explanation as to why you would be caught in a corner, he's stuck on those string lines. He can't chase you if he misses you with his initial attack.

Ah, him, yes. Utter utter shitbag. Wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for those frigging midget that he lobs at you. "Hey, blue boy, catch these while I come down there and shit on your head".... I knew how to deal with the guy and it still took me a few tries...

In other news, I can see by Terra Drake's signature she got to one of my favorite parts in Jak II.
