Halo 3 to some extent. Halo 2 gave us a real boss battle against one of the Brutes. However Halo 3 gave us "Shoot 343 Guilty Spark with a laser a few times." It wasn't that fun and afterward you just drive off into the exploding sunset. I said it as a joke on the other thread, but really -  Halo 4. Reduced what could have be an awesome boss fight to a QTE. At least Guilty Spark's fight was actually a battle.

As for Pokemon, because we seem to be on that topic now... Even though it's my favorite in the series, Emerald's Elite Four is shockingly week, with Wallace's main maxing out below level 60, if I remember correctly. It does remedy that, though, by giving the champion from Ruby and Saphire, Steven, a team of that's fossil-pokemon themed, making them high 70's, and hiding him away somewhere for us to find and fight. So yeah. Guilty Spark's fight consisted of fire until Sgt. Johnny knocks him into next week. Then pick up the big laser cannon and kick him into next week.

The fight with the Didact however, I criticize heavily. This is Harbinger, the guy of our destruction. And I take him out with a press of a button? Come on, Shepard faced him down in pitched battles, ones that were awesome and showed he was truly worthy as an opponent. But the Didact? Come on. For all that mumbo jumbo he was parading about, he died real quick. Pathetic.
