The proudest fucking dragon in video game.

 

[IlliterateBookworm]

This! This was one of my favorite dragon designs growing up! I begged my mother to make me a Halloween costume of this.

Sadly it looked nothing like it did in the game.

Bahamut Lagoon had some nice designs too.

 

[Marsipolami]

The Black Dragon of Dungeon in Heroes of Might & Magic III. Can't post picture since I'm at work and don't want to get soiled underwear.

 

[glaurung]

Diablos, though he wasn't really a dragon, more of a winged demon.

Also, the dragons from Ninja Gaiden series were wicked.

 

[GrizzNKev]

We'll see about these guys:

or

Can't wait for Guild Wars 2.

 

[nilbog21]

Oh fuck yes!

 

[Ulthwe]

Pirate dragon from Wonder Boy III, which I discovered recently and made a thread about my playthrough.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Do these guys count ?

 

[DonMigs85]

BTW I still think Salamence is the best Dragon-type.

 

[hteng]

FFXI Fafnir

FFXI Bahamut

 

[Cypher]

First undead dragon boss Firebrand faces in Demon's Crest!

 

[Diprosalic]

those are no dragons.

 

[madara]

Oh Alex.....

 

[Jira]

Oh yes. That's The Shatterer in Guild Wars 2, get to fight him around level 50. Though, he's a baby compared to the Elder Dragons:

Zhaitan will be the biggest dragon in at launch of GW2 and is likely the largest dragon ever made in gaming until...

Kralkatorrik, this Elder Dragon is a thousand feet tall with a wingspan large enough to block out the sun. When the Crystal Desert is put into GW2 post launch this beast will be in game.

Primordus

Jormag

The last Elder Dragon being a currently unnamed deep sea dragon.

 

[DonMigs85]

those are no dragons.

If Pokemon could have 3 types, these guys would definitely be dragons.

 

[Frost_Ace]

those are no dragons.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Qe9O90cD80 This video agrees with you ;P

 

[Ricker]

Oh YES I was gonna post this! Atolm's such a magnificent beast...I love its first form design: http://youtu.be/juEEqplNues?t=5m36s

I was going to post this...of all the games and systems I sold,this is the one I regret the most.Someone remake this game in glorious HD please.

If there's one thing you can say about Sega, it's that they know how to make good looking dragons. The PSO dragon is a great first boss and all the dragons of the Panzer Dragoon series are awesome too.

Name a Dragon Type Pokémon (Except Druddigon or Kyurem). Hell, through in those dragon-esque pokes Charizard and Gyarados. they're all cool.

 

[xxczx]

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

disappointed in the lack of Doom Dragon from Golden Sun.

 

[Ricker]

Killed that guy about 1000 times and it was still fun waiting in the teleport pad for the last teamate to hop in and zip us down there hehe...

 

[Magnus]

I have absolutely no idea why this dragon came to mind first, considering it's a game I've never even played. Final boss in The Immortal (NES, and some computer platforms, I think):

My personal favorites are probably the WoW dragons. Great personalities, some of them. Loved Vaelastrasz. It's too bad so many just sit there in battle and you don't get to really take in their awesome...dragon qualities. Save Onyxia, who actually flies around and behaves like a traditional fantasy dragon. I can't really speak for dragon battles in Cataclysm.

The one someone posted of a Guild Wars 2 dragon (The Shatterer?) was a damned cool design. Loved it.

 

[Vicetrailia]

Not that i've played the game but because there is a The Record of Lodoss War game I gotta go with my man Shooting Star. Best Dragon ever.

 

[Doffen]

Must be Spyro

Daaaayum! Those look amazing. Viva la Dragons.

As for my favorite video game dragons:

[URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXKJd-xInGc#t=4m43s"][B]Bahamut: FFIV[/B][/URL] FFIV has some great boss fight mechanics that have stuck with the forthcoming titles of the series. The Bahamut countdown is one of my favorite ones. In FFIV, Bahamut's dungeon, "Lair of The Father" is an end-game dungeon and upon testing your might against Bahamut, you may summon him with Rydia. I always thought it was really epic to go deep inside of some unknown, dangerous dungeon and find treasure (Genji Armor set) and an optional boss.

[URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0_5R6aqBOg&feature=related#t=4m52s"][B]White Dragon & Nall: Lunar[/B][/URL] The White Dragons in the Lunar series look really original to me - as pups they look like flying cats and as adults they are shaggy and feathered (sort of like Falcor from The Never Ending Story). These White Dragons are also capable of creating large, flawless Diamonds. Minor spoiler:[spoiler]The diamonds are made from their poop. No lie.[/spoiler]

 

[legbone]

can't believe it took that long for someone to get it right. Dragon ducks for life!

i've always been kind of partial to the dragons from panzer dragoon. i think the lair ones were pretty cool too.

 

[Keasar]

I totally nominate the Guild Wars 2 dragons.

Especially the Shatterer, when I saw him enter the scene for the first time I was like "Shiiiiiiiiit." and then they told people that the Shatterer compared to the Elder Dragons (the real villains in the game) are like comparing a mouse to a lion in size and I went "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU~".

Thats a fucking mid-level public boss event, that stuff is usually reserved for raids and endgame content, I dont dare think what they are gonna do at the higher levels.

 

[Warrior_Keoni]

Edit: Whoops, Video game dragons! Sorry!

Here we go:

Kurth is ridiculous when you level him up, and acts as my main tank.

 

[eXistor]

 

[Diamond]

Orochi in Okami was awesome, japanese style.

Also...

The Black Dragon of Dungeon in Heroes of Might & Magic III

"The Black Dragon died with Kano ! You're the last one, Jarek !"

 

[DimmuBurgerKing]

None more iconic than the Queen herself:

 

[Jaffaboy]

This guy was my best friend during my time on FFXI. I miss him a bit.

Ahh, good memories. I miss my buddy Khocha a bit too.

 

[RealMeat]

Just use your imagination. (Nethack)

 

[SovanJedi]

Holy shit, this is the first time I've ever seen or heard of The Shatterer from Guild Wars 2. Looks mad as shit.

 

[Chuckpebble]

Seeing a ton of Monster Hunter love in here. This one is actually my favorite, though I'm sure most hate it.

Diablos - broke one of her horns already.

 

[Famassu]

Well, this thread confirmed one thing for me, for sure...


I need to play Guild Wars 2. I kinda dabbled in GW1, but never really got into it.

But I must fight those dragons.

I assume it's still free from monthly fees?

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Ringwyrm and Lindwyrm?! Haha, you've got to be kidding me.

Those are their real names?

 

[sammyCYBORG]

Hooktail from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. I mainly like it for the sheer size of it and it's weakness to crickets. The design as well was wonderful, and looked really intimidating for the an early boss.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Charizard

 

[mt1200]

Blue and Red dragons, from demon's souls

 

[The Lamonster]

Panzer Dragoon Orta.

 

[King of the Potato People]

Orochi in Okami was awesome, japanese style.

Now that’s a dragon with some personality. So awesome that I didn’t mind fighting it multiple times.

 

[cooljeanius]

those are no dragons.

Didn't stop Lance from using them anyway.

 

[thelatestmodel]

Just use your imagination. (Nethack)

Good call, though surely a gray one is preferable in case it drops its magic-resistant scales!

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Ogre Battle 64 dragons

 

[Lombax]

 

[JumpingTheGun]

obviously the first dragon I ever fought in a video game.

 

[JWong]

Huge The Witcher 2 spoiler. Seriously.
