Samus vs. Master Chief: Who Wins?

[HAL 9000]

Halo may be outselling Metroid (though I'm sure if Metroid had the marketing Halo did with everything from Mountain Dew and Slurpees to dolls and paper plates, it would have made just as many sales) but the Wii is outselling the 360. Heck, so is the DS.

[Fenrir]

That's an interesting spin for how my post doesn't apply to you saying 'The bigger the sample, the better' or that 'how educated the sample is, is irrelivant', both entirely self seving and erronous statements to make in this context that I promptly dispelled. Do try to keep up sweety.

I wasn't arguing with things J DC said, I was addressing something you said in the course of your discussion with him. You replied to me in the vein of stastics and the nature of them, something that is a clear offshoot of what you were argueing with J DC. So sorry, wrong again, try to keep up.

Whatever I said in the course of my discussion with him was in the context of the argument between us. When you drop in half-way without having a good idea of what we were talking about or the intended purpose of my statements and instead, simply pick a tangent from my post that wasn't addressed to you in the first place just to try and prove me wrong, it makes you look retarded.

Here, let me do a little recap for you: Johnny DC and I weren't talking about who would win a fight at all, but rather the popular opinion when he said the "majority" would back his choice, and then citing IGN as a sample as if it is the ultimate representation of the entire gaming community, when in fact, if you take into consideration just the number of people who log on to IGN, you'll see that they barely even make 1/10th (and that's being EXTREMELY generous) of the total gaming population and as such, using them as some kind of voice on behalf of gamers around the world is just downright idiotic. We're talking about consensus, NOT which segment of gamers' arguments is more valid, which pretty much throws into trash your entire drivel about "how educated the sample is" and whatnot. Cheerio. :up:

[DACMAN]

I'm in the majority when I think that Metroid gameplay and the Samus character is better. No you're not. People truly vote one way, by their pocket books. IGN is a small portion of people that go to IGN and vote. The market is EVERYONE. And it's pretty one sided.

I work in a factor that makes solar panels. There are over 800 people that work there. Many, many, and I mean many of the people there all know of and talk about Halo. From the quality control to the higher ups. Either we have Halo, or they have a child or brother that has Halo. We're even talking about starting a solar clan. I've even heard an HR lady talking about it. There is a USA Today in our break room with the story about the release of Halo 3. I had to wait to actually read it as it got passed around about 20 people who wanted to read it. And, this is just one place.

Halo is an absolute phenomenon. It made more in 24 hours than anything else ever. Any movie, any book, any video game. ANYTHING!

Wow. You guys are like going through Halo envy or something. Just buy a 360, play the best game ever, and stop being left out.


"well, uh, well, THE DS IS SELLING REALLY WELL!!!!1!":woot:

It helps when the cheapest version of the product is 59.99 and then you have a 'limited' Edition that's 129.99. The whole "Biggest day in entertainment history!" bit is nothing but smoke and mirrors. It sold worse then Halo 2. In terms of actual people, it a blip at best compared to the rest of the entertainment industry, in terms of actual people. Just like the video game industry is still a blip compared to other industries, like the movie industry.

LOL, I guess DACMAN is right about you people suffering from Halo envy. Halo 3 earning a record 173 million is every bit the big deal people are making it out to be, and ironically, ESPECIALLY if you admit the argument that the "video game industry is still a blip compared to other industries", because a so-called "minnow" in the entertainment industry accomplished what all the other big players couldn't. Remember the greater the odds, the smaller the means, the greater the achievement.

Besides, it's hilarious how you're picking straws over Halo 3's retail price. It still doesn't change the fact that Bungie's shooter was desired enough to get almost 3 million people in the US ALONE to make such a hefty investment on a SINGLE day. That too is an accomplishment on its own. If it isn't, I'm sure both Sony and Nintendo would have NO PROBLEM AT ALL in releasing a product of their own that has the capacity to make such big bucks, because, you know, its EASY. :whatever:

People acting like it isn't anything special are simply deluding themselves.

[Zenien]

Oh it is something special, you big baby, it's just not 'The single biggest day in entertainment history!'. But have fun putting words in people's mouths.

Maybe, but I'm a member and daily visitor at IGN and I didn't know that even poll existed before you showed it to me. It was buried somewhere in the new "Stars" channel. I doubt many casual visitors to the site had any idea about it either.

That's not what a majority are saying over at ign.

Of course it's more popular. It just friggin came out. Check IGN's Samus vs. Master Cheif poll. Samus is winning almost 3 to 1.

http://stars.ign.com//polls/11022.html

I'm in the majority when I say Samus will win. Just look at IGN.

Now, you'll note that I didn't say anything about IGN being a true representative sample of the 'gaming community', and I didn't get into how one would define 'gaming community', so you can throw this drivel about me not reading your arguments right out the window, I've read every post since it was bumped and the argument you make has nothing to do with what I brought up.


Your argument was very much who they think is better or who would win, however it segwayed into a debate about the validity of the versus poll between who would win in a fight over at IGN and if that was representative of the gaming community as a whole or not. I didn't argue that, actually READ, I'm begging you.

IGN is one of HUNDREDS of gaming-related websites, ON THE FREAKIN' INTERNET no less. Not to mention the fact that the mainstream gamer (which is the BIGGEST segment of the gaming population) doesn't post on gaming message boards or vote in online polls for their "favorite" character. It's just us nerds in here, bubby.

And I pointed out, that, as it pertained to the master chief versus samus debate, and who would win in a fight, and the poll at IGN which is what your back and forth with him became centered around:

1. IGN is the biggest video gaming site on the internet

2. The closer you get to J6P gamer the less informed the opinion becomes, and the higher chance it is that they would just vote for whoever they thought was cooler/which game they like more.

I said

IGN is by far the biggest gaming site on the internet. What sample would you trust, hardcore nerds, or the casual gamer who will just pick Master Chief because Halo is the 2nd biggest franchise in gaming.

Now if you really weren't prepared to go down this avenue, and if you were really just arguing about popular opinion, you would have simply told me that wasn't what you were arguing. But that's the thing. You are trying to argue in every conceivable avenue that MC would beat Samus, and talking about popular opinion was just a guise for that, otherwise you wouldn't have engaged my offshoot commentary at all, but you did.

By saying



But the thing is I wasn't engaging you in an argument in support of the majority believes this or that, I was making conjecture about why the argument about what the majority thinks doesn't really matter in this specific case. And in response to that you said The bigger the sample the better! as a direct response to me bringing up the discrepancy in demographics between a hardcore gamer and J6p

And if IGN is 1/10th of the gaming community, being generous, then by modern statistical standards that's enough for a representative sample... just thought you might want to know that. The sample would be skewed to the more informed gamer, but y'know.

And it's only after you got your ass handed to you that you tried to save face. What I was getting at was incredibly obvious, you just stopped playing ball because you ran out of wiggle room.

This forum poll is another example of the closer you get to the informed gamer, the better samus does in these polls. The Nintendo forum is dead, and the Xbox forum is the biggest in this games section, the only reason it fell behind was because everyone left for gamer rejects, and even then for the longest time the PS forum was just able to match the Xbox forum in posts, and a lot of taht is thanks to the BR/HD-DVD thread. Now taht people are posting int he Xbox forum again (ie you GR guys who have started posting here again) it's catching up.

And yet, despite this forum having virtually no presence of Nintendo fans, Samus is winning in this poll. Just like at IGN where you have far more Halo fans, Samus is winning. People who know what they're talking about know that Samus would beat Master Chief, it's that simple, and the further a sample deviates from that the more it boils down to a popularity contest that Metroid would lose hands down.

But through all this, you can't even offer an avenue for how master Chief would conceivably win, if you do have that sort of stuff to put forward, re-read the argument that Extro and I had and bring something new to the table.

and finally, I'm getting sick of seeing misogynistic bull**** littering this thread. :dry:

OK ya sissies, you can go ahead and be content with Samus winning some fictional fighting contest that could neither ever exist nor matters worth a spit. Great, more entertainment as I reiterate how Master Chief (or his game for all you pedantic suck-ups out there) is giving Samus a bigger butthole by the second in the REAL world. Keep dangling in ya fantasy land, chums. :woot::up:

I really didn't think your envy would reach such epic proportions (then again, it's Halo, lolz). Great entertainment value. Keep whining like a buncha sore losers, chum, but it doesn't change the fact that Halo 3 currently holds the title for highest revenue generated in 24 hours in the entertainment industry. It's going down in the record books. Some incessant crybabies throwing a hissy fit over it shouting "Lies! Deception! Smoke and Mirrors!" or thinking you have "won" some inane message board argument isn't going to change that.

All those :D and :up: smileys should readily make apparent to anyone with half a brain that I was simply pressing those fanboy buttons and having fun with people who took the bait. It should be readily apparent that it's not even a matter worth insulting anyone about. The fact that you think I was serious about it even with all those smileys and sarcastic posts with the "pwnage" IGN popularity pages speaks volumes about how dumb you are at reading other people's posts.

This poll is silly and nothing but fanboy pissing contests.

I think the Halo universe is better and has amazing multiplayer. I think Metroid has much better single player. Both are fictious characters and it depends whose making or ranting about it that would choose who wins.

Anyway, I keep reading Halo being called the no. 2 video game franchise of all time.
What's no. 1, then?

[Johnny DC]

At the brand-spanking-new IGN Stars, we endeavor to ask the type of questions that our readers have already been arguing about for years, only here we can open them up to the world for resolution once and for all. Last week it was Master Chief vs. Samus Aran, with Samus taking the victory (http://stars.ign.com/articles/824/824714p1.html). As for this week's Hero Showdown, we're pitting DC Comics' legendary Batman against Marvel Comics' one-and-only Iron Man.

Looks like Samus won :cool: :D

I didn't ignore it. Funny how you think that negates how Master Cheif was "defeated handily."

[XtromaniaK]

And no one continues to care. It was an internet-****ing-poll. By my count, I've bought a total of 3 more Halo games than Metroid games. Thus, Master Chief has one the battle for my pocketbook.

[Johnny DC]

And no one continues to care. It was an internet-****ing-poll. By my count, I've bought a total of 3 more Halo games than Metroid games. Thus, Master Chief has one the battle for my pocketbook.

People who voted for Samus care, which is more than those who voted for MC on this poll and the IGN poll.

And who cares if the poll's an internet poll? Especially when almost 70,000 gamers voted?

And how is stating how many Halo games you've bought matter? If I say that I've bought a total of 6 more Metroid games than Halo games, does that mean that Samus wins because I have a bigger pocketbook. (I'm guessing, but confident.)

[XtromaniaK]

I'm saying that it doesn't matter what 70,000 internet nerds voted on some stupid site about a damn video game. Many people who play Halo RARELY even get on the 'net. Most of them are regular people, not drooling fanboys who sit in front of their computer screens all day to wait for some 'net poll to win. Big whoop. 'No one continues to care.'

And how's that matter? It means that Samus winning a stupid poll means nothing to me. Because I hate the games she's in, and think she's a ****ty video game character. That's the other reason why this whole argument is completely irrelevant.

[Johnny DC]

I'd say that generalizing 70,000 poll voters as all being "internet nerds" is stupid as is saying that people who play Halo rarely get in the internet. Do you really think everyone who voted stared drooling at the poll? Is that how you rationalize Samus winning? And if no one cared, IGN wouldn't have opened their new Stars section with the debate. If this arguemnt is irrelevant to you, then stop posting in the thread.

[DACMAN]

I'm pretty sure his point is that most people who would have voted for the Chief are playing the game instead. While people who love Samus are online more than playing the games because the games suck as does the multiplayer (what a joke). All that poll proved was that more Samus fans go to IGN than Halo fans. If we took all the people who liked Halo, and put the numbers up against all the people who like Metroid, Halo would easily win. You're running around with those poll results over your head like it means something. When in fact it means nothing. The only real vote that everyone knows about and everyone actually votes on is with their pocket book. And the Chief easily wins.

[strikezone89]

master chief would dominated

The fact Samus fans have only poll results to comfort them when it comes to the fact eveyone likes the Chief more than Samus is delicious. Sales figures don't lie.

[XtromaniaK]

The spin in this thread by the Halo fanboys is delicious.

Spin? More like the truth. Most Halo fans are regular people who spend their time actually playing the games and not sitting there talking about how their game is so much better. Fail.

[D4rkShaDoWz]

Go Master Chief!!

[Venomfan]

its not about who you like better, or who is more popular, its about who would win in a fight. i've played Halo way more then Metroid, actually i dont think i've ever even played metroid, but looking at what the characters are capable of, its pretty obvious Samus would rape MC. whats the big deal, MC wasnt made to be capable of the same feats, otherwise Halo would be the easiest game ever

[GFreeman]

What feats is Samus capable of? Rolling up into a ball and getting shot? Menstruation? No, Master Chief kills her while she's busy scanning him or platform jumping or whatever the hell she happens to be doing at the time.

[Electro UK]

You realise we're not arguing Master Cheif vs Samus anymore?

Its man vs woman.

Sorry Zenien, man wins everytime :(

[블라스]

Except when the woman is Samus Aran, who beats the crap out of Master Chief.

[Electro UK]

In...

BACKWARDS WORLD!

LOL, Master Cheif would take Samus out for a nice sea food dinner... THEN NEVER CALL HER AGAIN!

Whammy.

[DACMAN]

Samus fights things like Godzilla sized monsters that MC wouldnt be capable of taking out. i dont think that any of MC's weapons would actually even hurt Samus. someone who knows more about Metroid can correct me if im wrong

I can correct you in that the Master Chief has blown up an entire alien ship. Much bigger than Godzilla. Not to mention Scarabs.

And the Plasma Sword can cut through anything.

[Venomfan]

I can correct you in that the Master Chief has blown up an entire alien ship. Much bigger than Godzilla. Not to mention Scarabs.

And the Plasma Sword can cut through anything.
blowing up an alien ship isnt near as impressive as fighting Godzilla dudes on a regular bases. James Bonds blown plenty of huge crap up, doesnt mean he stands a chance against either of these two. all though he almost should, just cuz hes James Bond lol

[Zenien]

MasterChief fans really need to stop bringing up his feats as though they think his feats are somehow caparable to what Samus has done in her long career. She would beat him most of the time, accept it and move on, she's more mobile, has far superior firepower for close range and long range, and can absorb many many times as much punishment. Those are facts. She. would. win. Even if Master Chief had an energy sword, and Samus has shown to shrug those off in her games, in any given environment she could easily reach an area he couldn't, she has countless homing missiles, can shoot through solid matter, can see him where ever he goes. If he gets too close she can just super bomb him or open up a black hole. She's pre crisis Superman compared to him. She would easily be the toughest opponent that the Chief would ever face, and she'd kill him most of the time easy.

The plasma sword, even if it could cut through her armor, where as she has been attacked with plasma swords before and not been cut in half in her games, would be useless except in close range, where she is a bit more dangerous to him then he is to her, I'm sure his armor which is paper compared to hers would deal very well with a super bomb or a black hole. Oh right it wouldn't deal very well with those, and god help him if he fought the iteration of Samus from Metroid Prime 3, who'd just go into Phazon mode and obliterate him. Really his best chance might to be trying to hide in the environment and sniping her, but she can then almost immediately tell where he is, use the wave beam, and all the sudden he has no cover at all.

[XtromaniaK]

Meaningless. Conjecture?

Really now? I never would have guessed.

[Zenien]

Guess who's still bitter. Remember, Ridley is just another alien with some scales. If you have anything worthwhile on topic etc, go ahead, but you and people like Dacman just come into the thread to either make stupid justifications, or meaningless jabs at someone, you can easily grow up and do that somewhere else.

[XtromaniaK]

Bitter about what? That you can try to make Apples and Oranges into the same fruit? Get over it, you can't tell me that Samus can beat Master Chief and bring actual relevant support for that argument.

This argument is retarded as the Gordon Freeman vs. Master Chief arguments of old. They are two different games, with two completely different focuses. You're trying to provide absolutely irrelevant evidence as precedent for MC's loss. How do you even know half of her weapons would work on him, or vice versa? Do you know the circumstances of the fight? Have you actually witnessed the effect of each universe's weapons and gadgets on the others? Or, as is more likely, are you making this **** completely up based on what looks prettiest in each game?

Giant meh.

[블라스]

Well, at least we can all agree that Batman beats them both.

[Zenien]

With Prep time of course.

Bitter about what? That you can try to make Apples and Oranges into the same fruit? Get over it, you can't tell me that Samus can beat Master Chief and bring actual relevant support for that argument.

I'd say actually going into what their abilities are is very relevant. But you probably think otherwise despite logic, which for you is nothing new.

They are two different games, with two completely different focuses.

1 is a shooting game
the other is an exploration game with shooting, doesn't sound too different to me.

You're trying to provide absolutely irrelevant evidence as precedent for MC's loss.

Oh so the evidence you provided was relevant?

How do you even know half of her weapons would work on him, or vice versa?

An IQ above 90.

Do you know the circumstances of the fight?

No, hence the comments about how Samus would probably win out in most environments. Come on poor little guy, you know how versus topics work, you consider their strengths and weaknesses and so on.

Have you actually witnessed the effect of each universe's weapons and gadgets on the others?

Damn, I guess people saying that Suprboy could beat Samurai Jack have no reasonable grounds to debate that. Maybe his punches will bounce right off Jack. :csad:

Or, as is more likely, are you making this **** completely up based on what looks prettiest in each game?

Halo sure looks prettier then Prime 3, so nope.

[XtromaniaK]

With Prep time of course.



I'd say actually going into what their abilities are is very relevant. But you probably think otherwise despite logic, which for you is nothing new.

Look, I added some other text there that might help cut through that haze covering your mind. You're going off of what's pretty and effective in each's game and you're trying to bend the results to fit an universe where they both actually exist. They've never fought each other's enemies, and there's nothing to actually gauge their effectiveness against each other with. This argument was dead before it began.

"Despite logic" indeed.

[Zenien]

Actually there's this little thing people do called 'reasonable measurement' it's the basis of hypothetical comparison and has been used for ever. Now given the punishment that Samus can take, and what effects her in her world you can get an accurate picture of what might effect her from Master Chiefs world (everything? Probably) by looking at comparable measures of power. There's no haze covering my mind little guy, and I already responded to you edited text.

You argued tooth and nail before, now you're saying "wha wha versus topics are stupid!"

Well, run along then.

EDIT: Holy crap maybe Gordon Freemans crowbar would decapitate MasterChief. :eek:

[XtromaniaK]

1 is a shooting game
the other is an exploration game with shooting, doesn't sound too different to me.


They're both two different games set in two different worlds with two different sets of technology and enemies. Tell me how that sounds alike to you?

Oh so the evidence you provided was relevant?

What evidence? I don't need evidence to use common sense.

An IQ above 90.

Once again, one does not need a high IQ to even feign common sense or rationality.

No, hence the comments about how Samus would probably win out in most environments. Come on poor little guy, you know how versus topics work, you consider their strengths and weaknesses and so on.

Strengths and weaknesses against.. two completely unrelated sets of enemies in two completely unrelated universes? Right.

Damn, I guess people saying that Suprboy could beat Samurai Jack have no reasonable grounds to debate that. Maybe his punches will bounce right off Jack. :csad:

Comparing effectiveness of technology versus brute strength are two completely different things. Samus isn't invulnerable or super-humanly strong to MC being quite mortal and weak. The two cases are not analogous.

And that's not what I meant when I said pretty. Read between the lines.

[Zenien]

Ok sure, whatever little guy, run along. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I grew up and learned that these versus topics are the source of a bunch of "fact"-creating and card-stacking on both sides. There's no simple answer to this question.

I'll end this debate with one nice little analogy for you. Let's say Samus is Sulfuric acid and Master Chief is Nitric acid. Now, in any normal hypothesis-based experimentation, you'd use one similar medium to test both of these variables on. But let's say you give Sulfuric acid aluminum alloy (Metroid Prime universe) and Nitric acid titanium alloy (Halo universe) and then try to determine their corrosive properties in relation to each other from the results. What have you proven?

Let me answer this for you. Nothing. Which is exactly what you're proving with your nice little "observations".

[블라스]

Hahahaha no way Superdork beats Samurai Jack :rolleyes:

[Zenien]

Superdork was cool for like 8 months before they killed him! :cmad:

[블라스]

I'm sorry, but Superdork (it's that Superman/boy/guy who punched through the universe or something like that, right?) was NEVER cool, what the hell?

No it isn't actually, you're essentially saying technological comparisons are useless, where in fact a weapon with a certain measurable destructive yield, or kenetic force, or technology like Plasma, or the heat temperature of molten lava are all accepted constants. You just want to stick your head in the sand because you KNOW this is a fight you can't win and you lost a long time ago and retorted with "lol you're sad"... how hypocritical of you to attack me on the basis of accusing me of running away from an argument.

[XtromaniaK]

Really now? Because how are you supposed to gauge the weapons' actual destructive yield when using two different sets of enemies? This is the one thing I'm wondering and you have yet to actually come up with a good response to. I'll take us all the way back to three posts ago when I made the acid/metal comparison. You're doing the same thing. Two different acids (they're both acid, yes, but the comparison ends there) on two different metals (same). You're not proving anything fast.

You have no common basis for measure and no way to actually gauge the destructive power of each's weapons in relation to each other. You're just going on what you perceive as more powerful and what you don't. You'd make a horrible scientist. I have yet to "run away" from the argument. You, on the other hand, replied with your classic "Run along, [variation of little boy], lolz" kicker that reveals that you have not a leg to stand on.

:cwink:

[블라스]

Huh, what do you know...

Woman, you had better be right about this.

[Zenien]

Don't worry, I am. :p

Extro

I think you forget how you ended off the last argument. Your undoing of course is that Metroid has log entries that give actual relative descriptions of how tough a certain enemies hide is and so on without using a made up metallic alloy. So no, again.

It's all about measuring comparable destructive yields and feats, and both universe have the same human level base line. It's not like people in 1 universe, the base average human, are any different from one another, and both games were based off of extrapolating a science fiction future from our world.

[XtromaniaK]

I think you forget how you ended off the last argument. Your undoing of course is that Metroid has log entries that give actual relative descriptions of how tough a certain enemies hide is and so on without using a made up metallic alloy. So no, again.

And those provide a common basis for measure.. how, again? Unless I'm missing something, neither developer has said the exact toughness of each's enemies in relation to it's "competitor". You're missing the biggest piece of the pie. That being the lack of a COMMON source of your "measurements"/observations.

[블라스]

Okie dokie, apparently it's out so I might go later to get it.

[Zenien]

"Unless I'm missing something, neither developer has said the exact toughness of each's enemies in relation to it's "competitor""

You can't be serious. No there is no graph indicating the exact levels, but by observing both universes which both have all the same universal constants, you can reach a relatively accurate conclusion. This isn't chem 30 AP, boyo, it's a versus thread between two fictional characters, all you have in these situations is a relatively accurate measurement, not being able to observe any interactions first hand, it's all hypothetical with some common sense and logic backing it up.

Okie dokie, apparently it's out so I might go later to get it.

I can be, and am, serious. The most you can gather from such observations are "possible" outcomes. But since there is nothing you can provide as an exact reference for both titles, they can never be more than possibilities. And possibilities aren't positives. Nor are they negatives, but they're definitely not positives either.

Noticing that both games have plasma-based weapons means nothing when they're not being used against comparable enemies in comparable environments.

EDIT: Oh look at that Samus went up a point.

[XtromaniaK]

I read that the first time. But the scientific method tends to be all-encompassing and apply to most situations. Drawing conclusions from a lack of solid evidence is not always going to yield meaningful results. Even if you have all the observations in the world. Especially when comparing two different mediums.

[Zenien]

It's not a lab experiment either. No, you cannot say definitively that Master Chief would lose, nor could you say Samus would lose, this thread is about who you think would win and why. In situation where you can't observe the interactions first hand all you have is hypothetical reasoning. This isn't your thesis, or a paper you have to hand it, it's a versus thread between two fictional characters on a message board dedicated to super heroes who they themselves are fictional entities.

[XtromaniaK]

Then don't say that you've definitively "proven" anything and call other people sour for having contradictory view points. That's the lone reason I responded to this topic in the first place.

[블라스]

I better get Gamera points for this. :o

You might...:dry:

[블라스]

Well, people here like Samus better, I guess.
To me, Samus would win, but that's cause I like her and her games way better than MC and Halo.

Halo has better grachics, better story, and better characters. and I don't see Samus stoping the flood. or a few Brutes for that matter.

[JustABill]

Samus would own Master Chief's ass, she's much more faster in and out of arm, and could just unleash on Master Chief.

Not to mention she's a better character and has had better games.

[DACMAN]

Not according to people who buy games.

Actually yes, according to people who buy games, Samus would win. Congrats on having nothing left but to fall back on the EA arguement. Truely, the Hulk would be pround.

MC is just as fast as Samus if not faster. plus if MC had a Scarab then Samus would not be able to run long.

[The Amazing Spider-Man]

Putting Master Chief vs Samus aside, and going into the whole Halo vs Metroid thing.....maybe we should see if the Halo series lasts over 20 years. :o

As for sales figures, I'm of the belief that Halo is far more of a series for casual people than Metroid so it's obviously going to sell more. I have a very hard time picturing people who's entire gaming 'career' consists of stuff like Madden, GTA and Halo having fun playing a Metroid game.

[Zenien]

Twilight Princess sort of sucked.

Remember a while back there was that April fools thing on "The next Zelda game" which was portrayed as a futuristic game in a sci/fi/fantasy melded world? I'd much rather have that then another Ocarina of Time remix.

I love how you seem to think that changing the subject will somehow make you less wrong.


Just admit you were wrong and lets move on. You're so fricken prideful.

Wrong about what? Jebus. I never said Metroid outsells Halo, how delluded are you. All of your arguements are retarded halfwit crap like "MasterChief would win because he's a man" when you yourself openly admit to not even reading or understanding anything about Samus, or her suit, or her weapons.

Master Chief would jump off the Scarab before it blew up. in the end of it all he would win.

No, in the hypothetical situation were they both fought, most of the time he really wouldn't. She can absorb far more damage then he can, has far more destructive weaponry, and is far more mobile and agile then him. Meaning the can reach areas that he can't and simply reign down super missiles, or switch to her visor that tracks bio signatures or use her weapon that shoots through any solid matter.

I had an anal thing going at first, but I couldn't get it to make sense so I had to settle for spanking :csad:

[Johnny DC]

It also showed her speed and a bit of her firepower.

And her ability to accurately shoot is beter displayed in MP Corruption thanks to the Wii remote, which is also in that video.

[DACMAN]

As in Hey without the H. Or if your feelling especially lazy it's just like a very lazy e as in every without the very. :dry:
I was playing with a guy on Gears the other day co-op (nice guy) and he kept saying "eh". I eventually said, "so you're from Canada eh?" And he fricked out that I knew. He asked how I knew, and I told him it was from the "eh"s. He thought it was the funniest thing in the world because he said he didn't even realize he says them.

[Zenien]

That's because eh is le awesome.

[GFreeman]

Are you one of the french canadians, or the regular kind? :confused:

[WhatsHisFace]

Her name is "Zenien," of course she's the French kind.

[GFreeman]

Does Zenien actually mean something? I never knew :confused:

If she is the french kind, I've been reading her posts in completely the wrong accent for years now. :(

[Zenien]

Salut là, ma nom est Alex et je peux parler le français! C'est juste la honte que la plupart des gens sur Internet sont des américains qui n'ont jamais été correctement instruits pour être capables d'empoigner l'apprentissage d'une deuxième langue. Cela me rend triste. :csad:

[Purple Prancer]

I understood like...almost all of that, and have never taken a French course :confused:

[GFreeman]

I recognize "Alex" and "Internet".

[GFreeman]

Aha, now I know. Americans only need one language, you indecisive Canadians :mad:

[Zenien]

Votre Avatar est joli :oldrazz:

[Purple Prancer]

I hope it changes back :(

[GFreeman]

I am not jolly! :mad:

[Zenien]

Purple Prancer est un Savant? :huh:

EDIT: DRT aime tenir des mains avec les garçons. :o

No, just Spanish :huh:

Maybe more than just that :o

Stephane, did you lose a bet or something? :)

Your avatar is so cute. :o

[GFreeman]

You people are all going to hell.

I think I'll stop posting when I hit 666

[Johnny DC]

IGN compledted it's list of the Top 100 Games of All Time (http://top100.ign.com/2007/index.html) today, and guess what game made it into the top 10? Super Metroid (http://top100.ign.com/2007/ign_top_game_7.html). But it wasn't the only game to make the list from the franchise; Metroid Prime (http://top100.ign.com/2007/ign_top_game_30.html) ranked in at No. 30.

Only one Halo game (http://top100.ign.com/2007/ign_top_game_32.html) made the list and placed 32nd.

So, not only do the video game fans at IGN think Samus would beat MC (remember their vs. poll?) but the IGN staff thinks the Metroid games are better.

Just thought I'd put that out there.

[XtromaniaK]

Of course if they think that Samus would win in an imaginary fight that would never happen and that you can't actually calculate a winner to, they're going to favour the games as well. That's a no-brainer.

And because of that, it really doesn't mean a damned thing.

[Johnny DC]

They? Ign.com's site visitors chose the winner of the imaginary fight through a poll. The top games list was chosen by the editors of IGN US, UK, and Australia.

So there goes whatever point you were trying to make.

[XtromaniaK]

Regardless, it doesn't really mean much to the argument. IGN is one site with one Top 100 list. Just because they think Metroid is a better game really doesn't lend to the argument one way or another. They're completely disjointed. I mean, it's fun for you if you can take that as a "Samus would totally beat Master Chief!" but that's not sound logic.

[Kung Fu master]

I had an anal thing going at first, but I couldn't get it to make sense so I had to settle for spanking :csad:

Taken out of context, that could be SHH's most hilarious posting ever.:hyper:

[GFreeman]

Speaking of lulz, this thread needs to make a come back. Surely Zenien, Fenrir, and Dacman have new insights into how this important, epic confrontation would go down.

[WhatsHisFace]

MasterChief would just force Samus into nonconsensual sex.

*instantly bursts into a flamewar*

[Fenrir]

Penis always wins. Always.

[Zenien]

Let's talk about how Bioware sucks ass.

EDIT: Samus would just clench, twist, and break it right off. Sorry guys.

EDIT: STOP TROLLING EVERYTHING YOU IDIOTS.

EDIT: I'm going to kick your ass.

[GFreeman]

Whatever Zenien. The penis is indestructible.

[Purple Prancer]

penismightier

[DACMAN]

Whatever Zenien. The penis is indestructible.

like she'd know...

[Faded To Deaf]

I vote Master Chief, for me I like the game and character better. Nice poll though.

[Speedball]

Master Chief or Samus Aran?
Hmm...
Batman, with Prep time. :p
Or the two would break each other's armor off and have sex. :o

[Havok83]

wow, talk about resurrecting an old thread
