    Of course we all know this D: There a certain handful of games that reward a player with an ultimate power that renders all else useless in comparison. However, it is only usually unlocked when the game is beaten, leavin' it kinda useless. However, some can be used before the game is actually completed. In other games, the ultimate power is often restricted to just the final battle

    In Sonic the Hedgehog, 2, 3/S&K, players were tasked to collect all seven Chaos Emeralds though this is optional. If all 7 are collected, the player will then be able to assume a super form which grants them both super speed and invincibility attacks. Since Sonic Adventure, the Super forms are restricted to the final battles only

    In the Mega Man X and Zero series, players could unlock an 'Ultimate' armor/form which boosted their abilities and gave them new ones. In the first and second X games, players could unlock a special move taken from the Street Fighter series. These attacks had the ability to kill any enemies and most bosses in one to two hits.

    In Mega Man ZX, players could unlock Model OX, which not only gave them instant access to all three elements, but infinite access to the screen-filling Giga Crushes from the X series

    In all Devil May Cry games excluding the second one, players could unlock a 'super' version of Dante or another playable character. This version of the character possesses unlimited Devil Trigger. In the first and second battles against Mundus in the first game, Dante gets access to the Sparda Devil Trigger, which gives him powerful projectiles attacks and ridiculous range with the sword.

    In Bloody Roar 3 onwards, players can unlock a very cheap character called Uranus who both excelled at speed AND power.

    In Godhand, the player gets to utilize both the God and Devil hands, but only in the final battle. The Devilhand could also be unlocked as well.

    Any other stuff? D:

    When you become a high school Junior, you get the power to cast others into olivion.

    For real post: In Shadow of the Colossus
    you become Dormin, the devil after you destroy all the Colosi. The Colosi sealed him away. And then you get to fight this band of soldiers in a tiny room where you can barely move because you're huge.

    In Castlevania: SOTN if you use the shield rod with the Alucard shield, and then simply hold the shield up and run through enemies they die and you get health back. It also absorbs projecticles, and kills bosses in a few seconds. You don't get the Alucard shield until a good chunk of the game is over, but it's still useful.

    In megaman Command Mission, you can get ultimate armor after you defeat a really hard boss. Also you can get Zero's Absolute Zero which looks like a vampire xD

    In sonic battle. In Emerl aka the last scenario you can aquire these special ??? moves. Which is basicly a charecters combo on super speed.
    Once a charecter is caught in it they most likely WILL die. It is utterly cheap with com players who just stupidly run direclly into it. Tho you cant really use them against the final boss. Eggman I forgot what but had some way to not make it as usefully. And the last boss is well... you know.

    It's not just ze combos. You can also unlock his 'Ultimate' moves, which are basically enhanced versions of Sonic's attacks, so acts more like a replacement of Super Sonic. But you can't actually equip all of the Ultimate Skills at once because they take up too many points

    In spiderman 3 you get to play the entire game over with the blacksuit which, unlike the red and blue actually kills people and has a chargable rage mode.
