Re: Video game Battles
Correction - in the HALO2 universe there can very well be a gravity gun (its now as much a part of Gordon as a crowbar) but it would be useless in the HALO2 universe:thecreech wrote:in the Halo 2 universe there is no gravity gunAce Pace wrote:

THERE ARE NO PHYSICS.
Although intriguingly, Gordon Freeman would instantly fall to the ground, reduced to only a POV with two forearms, due to the nature of HAVING FEET AND A BODY in HALO2

Re: Video game Battles
There are physics. If you mean fall damage, that was because the sword was causing problems with it. If you were above someone, and used the sword on them, you could have accelerated to the point where you would die upon hitting the ground.weemadando wrote:Correction - in the HALO2 universe there can very well be a gravity gun (its now as much a part of Gordon as a crowbar) but it would be useless in the HALO2 universe:thecreech wrote:in the Halo 2 universe there is no gravity gunAce Pace wrote:

Re: Video game Battles
Can't really say, since I havn't played DMC - since Dante has duel pistols and near Matrix-like feats according to demo videos I've seen, however, I'd call it in his favor. Alucard might have a great number of mystic abilities, but he's limited in range with normal attacks and might have only limited range with his spells (Dante might be able to pick him off from 3 screens worth of distance away).thecreech wrote:Dante (devil may cry) vs Alucard (Castlevania SOTN)
Solid Snake, hands down: Sam Fisher might be a super-spie, but he's going up against a super-soldier bred for combat proweress, and from my plays of Splinter Cell, he's pitiful in melee combat (even his weapons suck - it took two shots from his pistol to take down a measly police officer with headshots)..Snake (metal gear solid) vs Sam Fisher (Splinter Cell)
Can't say - never played either one, nor seen Shinobi in a decent-enough amount to make judgement.Hotsuma (Shinobi) vs Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden)
Can't say - havn't seen GTA:SA in any decent amount to make judgement, being a 'Box man.Carl “CJ” Johnson (GTA: SA) vs Tommy Vercetti (GTA:VC)
Master Chief, I suppose. Havn't seen HL2, but from what I've read and from memories of HL1, his alterations and armor make up for any possible advantage the HEV might give Freeman.MasterChief vs Half-life 2
Given the right equipment, I suppose Freeman could cut it. No flipping of vehicles in case of accidents, though, and I doubt he's enough proweress to 'jack the vehicles of the enemy.Gordon Freeman vs Halo 2
Note does Master Chief recived the near god-hood status of Freemand and is given the same rep?

To the original posts- on none of those matchups have I actually played both games
To my post: Personally, I go with Samus. Samus has a 99 point health meter and 10 to 20 energy tanks (depending which game, Prime is 10 IIRC and all the 2D games including GBA are 20), a 'yellow ball of death' weapon, and a ton of cool stuff (including something to freeze people in place, a flamethrower, super-missles, and a plasma gun. w00t!). MegaMan X has a 32 point health bar at max and only 4 energy tanks. He has a chargeable 'yellow ball of death' weapon, and a close-range saber weapon (try that on someone with a flamethrower! ). And Master Chief has a bunch of guns, a small amount of health but a rechargeable shield (no time to recharge when you're being blasted by Samus).

X has been blasted in the face with flamethrowers several times over the course of his adventures, and it only does a few points of damage. He also regularily undertakes missions inside of active volcanoes, with the heat not affecting his performance in any way. Samus, on the other hand, takes damage if the room she's in is too hot.

Only if she has the weakest suit. We're assuming the combatants are at their maximum potential- they both suck in their basic forms.Drooling Iguana wrote:X has been blasted in the face with flamethrowers several times over the course of his adventures, and it only does a few points of damage.

On max level, Samus has a force field over her armor, is completely involnerable to heat short of lava which slowly does damage (note that X is killed instantly by lava), and even gets a Plasma beam while X still has his original weapon (note that in X6 you could get an upgrade for a triple shot or an instant charge, but those were really, really hard to find and not part of the normal gameplay stuff you find).
And Samus's evil flamethrower of doom is a PLASMA/missle combo plasma blast. Plasma > lava. Lava > X, usually.

If we're looking at the most current Samus, she has complete protection from lava even without the outer suit armour, a wall-penetrating Ice Beam and Ice Missiles with a wide blast radius, both of which display very high lethality.
That, of course, and her ability to Space Jump, and if the others try to get away, Shinecharge and Shinespark.

Re: Video game Battles
The right man in the wrong place, the g-man said. Despite the Spartan power armor if some sort of guy in power armor walked off the train at a combine train stop he wouldn't last very long. Sure he's got a considerable technological advantage (though compared to the combine, not quite as much), but he wouldn't make it out of the train station. The whole place is shielded off to prevent escape escape the conventional way, and he'll be mobbed by Combine soldiers in short order - lots of them. He's the wrong man, sorry.thecreech wrote:MasterChief vs Half-life 2

Gordon freeman isn't the uber commando that a spartan is. Remember, Gordon Freeman is the right man in the wrong place (or the right place, depending on how you look at it). At most he is a resistance fighter. To be very honest; the bit where you have to walk outside the gun platform, that'd be the end of him - as his hazard suit is not vaccum sealed.thecreech wrote: Gordon Freeman vs Halo 2

Sometimes he is, sometimes he isn't. The lava at the end of X3 only did a few points of damage when he touched it.Praxis wrote:(note that X is killed instantly by lava),
Hell, he might not even need to go into battle himself. If his cyber-elf form can take control of Samus' suit, he can end the battle easily without exposing his real body to any kind of danger.

Re: Video game Battles
If he started out like Freeman does - ie without his armor and then got it later (at the same time Freeman gets his HEV) he would definitely make it through. Of course, he'd probably need help just like Freeman did.InnocentBystander wrote:The right man in the wrong place, the g-man said.

Re: Video game Battles
*shrug*, is the resistance going to help him? The only reason Gordon didn't get sent to Nova Prospekt right off that bad is because Barney recognized him. It was pure "luck" (g-man luck that is). If he was in his standard civilian clothing he'd prolly just be "some guy", barney wouldn't have given him a second thought, and off MC goes.Natorgator wrote:If he started out like Freeman does - ie without his armor and then got it later (at the same time Freeman gets his HEV) he would definitely make it through.
