kog_met_vs_hal.jpg

Our artists are busy working on the King of the Game video game tournament and every once and a while we will give you a sneak peak at a few pages without spoiling the plot and revealing who comes out on top.

Below are two final pages minus the dialog of the battle between Metriod’s Samus Aran and Halo’s Master Chief. The art is by Jonathan Lo.

    I’m not going to lie, I believe that The Master Chief would win this fight. Faster reflexes, stronger, over all speed, fighting knowledge, so on.

    Also, what the heck is that Jeep thing doing in the third frame on the first page? I mean, it looks nothing like the worthog. I do like the art style, by the way. =D

    117 would definitely win like Matthew said he is going to overall be faster stronger and have more combat experience than Samus
    personally I think taking on the covenant is much worse than anything Samus can throw at him.

    in response to the blaster short circuit theory. In the game and books he gets nailed my blaster from brutes and multiple other weapons equivalent to light artillery so I think he could take the blaster. and if her blaster is anything like it was in Mario, Master chief will just jump over it and punch her in the face.

    In response to the MC supporters: There is no way MC even has a slight chance of even hurting Samus. If you think he is faster and stronger than her, you obviously haven’t played a Metroid game or even looked up any of the story. She has been trained from nearly a baby by the Chozo, the most powerful and advanced raced of beings in the universe. She has also been laced with Chozo and Metroid DNA, making her much faster, stronger, quicker and more intelligent. Metroids can literally drain the life force of any living thing almost instantly and yet she defeated metroid prime! She has also been infused with pure phazon, a substance that emits high radiation, mutates living organizms into much more powerful and uncontainable creatures, and has completely destroyed entire planets. Her varios Chozo suits are rediculous. She can fire temporary black holes from her gun! As for people sayign she’s slow??? Have you seen her hyperdash? She can run at an incredible blinding speed, crushing everything in her path. She is also not a hollow brained experiment like MC. With her inhanced fighting skills, she can also scan MC and the surrounding environment with ehr visors to expose every weakness and every possibility she has of killing him. if you think the covenant is bad…. wow. MC would get killed really quickly by the space pirates, Kraid and Ridley. Mother brain alone would ruin MC. I mean, saying MC can beat Samus is like saying a newborn baby can beat up Bruce Lee. I just don’t get it… Freakin unlogical halo fanboys.

    Don’t abnegate my knowledge of the Metroid series, “Garreth”. I have played every single Metroid game other than Metroid Prime Pinball and I have yet to finish Metroid Prime 3 due to insufficient funds. I have also done well enough of my share of research on said series. I have done the same for the Halo series, yet my opinion still stands; That The Master Chief would win the fight. Which leads me to believe that you are being hypocritical by being a fanboy(?), yourself.

    Now, if this were a popularity contest, then Samus may win due to the fact that she has been around longer…

    Guys =) you forgot the fact… Samus suit should take bullets.. im guessing that’s why the pirates on the game uses pulse (or something beam alike) weapons

    btw Matt.. who has trained the longest ;) Chief began whn he whas 7 and samus 4.. she has Chozo blood (if you could read that) and who dies by one Rocket?.. i dont think you can fast reply me on this one so ill tell you myslef… Playin multiplayer halo made me realise that… Cheif is ass raped by a stupid rocket?!?! i said wtf? where the hell is the armor? where the hell is the strength?? WHERE THE HELL IS THE SUPER SPEED EVERY DAMN FANBOY IS TALKING ABOUT???…. So i guess the novels (if there is where they’ve got it from) made a huge lie.. he cant even jump that high as told… atleast Samus doesn’t have as many lies as MC..

    another quiz =) Who kills the biggest enemies?

    Chief?
    Samus?

    well let me give you a hint.. Compare omega pirate(Metroid) with an elite pirate from Halo.. Who kills the biggest?

    Who is the lonliest?
    who takes on Foes one by one without a damn team standing on his or her side?

    Who has the greatest (most) health?

    And who has his/her own spaceship?( just for fun )

    Oh hell you mean wich game is the most funniest?

    heh i thought who is the winner over a fight

    well i might dissapoint some here but halo is actually more fun (if there isn’t a new Metroid game to play) like it actually cuz of the multi player =)

    all though i think its abit overrated =/ dont take me wrong but Halo is abit overrated cuz of the action n stuff they are talking about isnt really that big =P but its still ass kicking ^^

    (wonder how metroid would’ve been)

    First off, Halo is overrated. You have that right for sure. It’s still one of the best games I have played in my life, but it’s overrated none-the-less. =P

    The reason for The Master Chief’s inability to take much damage in multiplayer is due to, how I see it, both balancing and the enjoyment of the game. If it took more weapons than you could carry in the game to kill a single opponent, that would be a rather boring multiplayer, don’t you agree? What about if all the characters sprinted at 50 miles per hour? All bullets are blocked by his armor? Or the melees, when they hit people, send them flying half way through the map? No, wait. That last one already happens in Halo 3. =P Well, if they could, the game would be far less enjoyable. It would, on single player campaign, be so much easier.

    You are correct in assuming that the actual character of The Master Chief’s is shown more acurately in the Halo novels. When he can carry far more than 3 weapons and when he can easily be as stealthy as any half ton suit of armor can be. (Which is, surprisingly, quite a bit)

    The Master Chief may not have his own ship, or any vehicle, for that matter, but he has access to just about every weapon and vehicle in the army/navy/government. That and anything that he can find, he can use. Samus may be more solitary, but that has it’s disadvantages.

    Fighting larger enemies doesn’t necessarily mean that that person is better at fighting. First off, size means (relatively) nothing in the idea of power. Something huge could very well be worthlessly weak. Like the first boss in many video games. Also, who kills the most enemies? And no, that doesn’t include random animals. =P I do like that about the Metroid series, they have animals, unlike the Halo series. Well, there are birds and fish and I am getting off track.

    I would say that The Master Chief has more health. No, I am not including shields. The Master Chief can actually take bullets after his shield has been depleted. Samus just dies when her power goes out. If we are including shields, then it would depend how long The Master Chief would let Samus looks for all her missing energy tanks. =P

    By the way, Master Chief trained at 6. Just to randomly clear that up. Also, there is hardly any training a 4 year old girl can do, if you think about it.

    The reason that The Master Chief can jump so high, regardless of the half-ton armor, is that the armor simply augments his strength. Also, in the first cutscene on Metroid Prime, when Samus jumps from her space ship, it would be more impressive if it weren’t in space with who knows how little atmosphere. =P

    I believe that I have typed far too much. =P

    come on this isn’t king of the book. this is KING OF THE GAME! who cares whats in a book about halo. if you feel you have so little to go off from the actual game and get stuck reciting from a book thats pretty sad. not sure what he does in halo 3 but in 2 cheif only has sheild aswell? unless you count the one or two hits he takes with the flashing danger shield.

    you can’t say size doesn’t matter then go on to say that chief could take more damage than samus without shields they are both sh*thouse

    smaus was infused with the bllod of a chozo warrior so shes part human part chozo, which are extremely quick and intellectual (i didn’t know she trained at four but there you go :P chozo blood helps)

    just on a side note that would be awesome if you actually had epic fights that lasted a long time in multiplayer, if he’s actually that strong why don’t they show it in the game where for this tournament it actually counts??

    also you notice samus doesn’t fly away when she’s walking and when she hits the ground theres a reasonably loud thud along with the fact of the speed she falls and that the boosters on her back go off as she jumps i’d say that the gravity in that area must be normal from something to do with magnets in the ground or her feet or something. duh its not supposed to be oh i can jump really high its just a grand opening. swould you have her just crawl like a baby to the end of the ship a slide off (shes trying to oppose the demograhpic of a normal lady here not act like some little girl out of a japanese anime. or would you prefer she landed inside jumped really high in there (whoah! spectacualar cus its inside!) and hit her head lol

    your just trying to finds flaws in things that don’t matter (i can’t believe im actually wasting time with this…) its never gonna be finished anyways :P

    Matthew

    well you did shut my mouth there abit..

    but mole man is actually abit correct about this… She does have something on her back that might lift her up off her heavy armor (since you’re calling chiefs armor heavy) i aint saying that chiefs armor is feather light (it would be awesome if it whas) but they both have heavy stuff on em.. lets sey they are farily rated with character but not with power.. Hmm i think we’re about to start a fight wich i hope wont happen. Well i still have to stand at Samus side on this one.. They’ve made chief’s game’s pretty fair as you said =) that is what makes them fun. A challange but in Metroid (when i learned the controls n stuff) it whas pretty much a walk in teh park. Well on hard mode it took abit time until i got past that damn invisible turret but i got it in the end.. Echoes is a pain in the ass if you’ve never played echoes before (and especially if you’re a new one to MP) but after i’ve beaten the bosses once… same story.. walk in the park =D.. But it whas a slight challange on hard mode. some foes (not bosses) almost killed me once ^^ (i think they’ve made the games like that so the player would’nt die too often.. cuz if you did and you havent saved for long BAM ass-raped… you’re far far away from where you where) but in MP3 they’ve finally got checkpoints xD.. btw did you know that Retro studios is/whas a rookie company? they are still searching for workers that might help them with modeling n stuff (if you check thier website) and the Chozo blood might actually give the reason for a 4 yr old girl beggining training at that age…

    btw.. you didnt type too much at all =) look at us for an example

    AND ONE MORE THING!

    Excuse me for the text that it became abit like “random info” and yes i might thank you for correcting chiefs age of training ^^ i do think that’s awesome.. but since these Samus vs MC fights started it makes the games less fun to play.. oh my god i hate the one that said What if samus n chief fought.. i wouldäve said What if the dude from crysis and Chief fought =) dont know how unfair/fair it would be but he does have that thing that says “maximum strength/speed” and the stealth thingy =P and the guy from timeshift does actually look like samus (with the visor) abut =/ that’s my opinion =)

    Sorry for the delay. Had things to do and so on. =)

    Moleman first; This is about the characters of the games, not the games themselves, correct? If it were King of the Game, then the Halo series would be far out numbered. =P I find it understandable to use the character’s back story as their character.

    As for the size argument, I’ll a simple example; take some huge random fat guy that has never worked out a day in his life and pin him up against a fit regular sized man. Sure, the larger man has more weight hindering his attacks, and could very well have much less power than the regular man’s attacks.

    Now, on to the Chozo blood idea. I’ll use another example for this one. Say you take a human and inject some pig blood into said human. First off, there is a huge chance that the body would downright refuse the blood from the start, but let’s say it didn’t for the sake of this subject. So now that the human has pig blood, does it make the human more like a pig? No. All the blood is used for is bringing oxygen to the muscles. So let’s say that the Chozo blood is very efficient bringing a lot oxygen to where it needs to go. However, the use of that oxygen would do little difference; the muscles are still human and still have the restraints of human muscles. All having efficient oxygen carrying blood would do is make it so that there is extra oxygen in your blood stream.

    I would find the game rather annoying to play if each and every fight lasted forever, and odds are, most other people would too. The Halo series multiplayer has always been about quick, adrenaline induced skirmishes that last only a matter of seconds. The game could get old really quick otherwise.

    “your just trying to finds flaws in things that don’t matter (i can’t believe im actually wasting time with this…)”
    I’m trying to find flaws in things that others have based their ‘facts’ on. And believe me, the beginning cut scene jump has been brought up in many of the debates I have been in. If you have better things to be doing, then what is keeping you replying? =P

    Now that that’s over with, time to go to Melos. It’s true, both of their armor seem to be quite heavy. However, I am not sure how heavy Samus’s armor really is. If anyone knows for sure and can back it up, it would be much appreciated. Yeah, the rocket booster things on her back would help, I would imagine.

    I love both characters as characters, to be sure and I really would have liked saving a lot of time from these debates if that guy never opened his mouth. =P But, it was going to happen sooner or later, as just about all characters are compared with each other.

    And I must say, I really enjoy debating with people who keep their heads clear and unbiased. You, Melos, are just about the closest I have gotten to one of those types of people in the many The Master Chief vs. Samus debates I have been in. And I thank you for that. ^^

    Sorry Cheif fans but Faster? Samus has speed in her ‘rollerball of doom’ and ‘Screw Attack’ that I have never seen Cheifcakes match in game. Stronger? About even there really despite samus being a girl her suit is more advanced from a further future realm. Combat Experience? Samus has been doing this since 8-bit baby. 20+ Years kids. Samus fights towering nasty space pirates. Cheif fought a talking plant… need I go on?

    Matthew

    SO you say that samus enemies are fat and not trained… Sigh.. those fucks have lot o bigger muscles ye know.. and more agile “except for the biggies” but ridley is somewhat an agile bastard.. and about the chozo blood, not did they only infuse that but they gave her also implants so she can contol her suit as if it was’nt on.. The same with chief.. hes a cyborg if im correct(from the waist down aye?) so if you removed that part and you’d run around without it then you might say it’ll be a big imobility. Plus what is Chief? a might spartan right? a respected man! a powerful one. A human aswell.. But Samus is more than a spartan.. She is the protector of the Galaxy… i mean as i said before i would’nt run around protecting it with chiefs armor. Just face it.. these two are totally different.. Samus is superior and chief is inferior simple as that… And sometimes halo fans keep adding up shit on chief that i’ve never seen on the games before… So why bother doing that? And people say that samus lacks agility guile and strength… and chief kills her with one punch? Sure lets say that.. lets compare oki?

    Chief punches= a third of what omega pirate can slash with his claws

    chief getting run over by car and dieing= its like when Emperor Ing Rushes into you.. should be the same since he must weight more than a warthog

    Chief slices with his Sword=Flagghra Slices Samus with his blades

    and she survives all that… why wont chief do it when someone hits him with either the sword or a gun(melee) or even a warthog kills him.. cmon man stop comparing to a Lonewolf that’s tons better.. they arent compareable.. it should be chief vs the guy from Crysis.. now that should do it

    now who fights alone?

    samus fights alone like 98% (the two left are that she gets a group in MP3.. though they turn against her later)

    and chief fights alone like 67%
    since he needs a team that backs him up all the time=/

    But one more thing.. The Halo games are actually somewhat challangeble wich makes em fun ^^ the metroid games are challanging aswell if you dont know the controls.. but after that it’s quite easy.. and sometimes frustrating =/ The frustration comes from that if you have’nt saved for like 4 hours.. You’ll return to the latest save point you have saved.. no Checkpoints.. though they’ve added that in MP3C. Buuut you do also lose health so it’ll eventually make you go to a save spot. But it could still be disturbing.. (if you die from bosses)

    Let me just clear up the blood thingie.. She gets the blood wich makes her half chozo (yeah i know it’s like they’ve cheated on her mother/father) but it boostes her reflexes,muscles,agility,sense and guile.. otherwise she would’ve been a normal human like Chief.

    on January 14, 2008 12:34 am

    yeah and with that this is a futuristic alien species blood infusion. pigs are used because they have similar gentetics i think? something similar with people anyway, but this is some crazy alien species which god knows might do to her (i don’t believe in god though). we know it couldn’t happen but hey its a game…

    have to say aswell though calling samus protector of the galaxy and not tagging cheif as one aswell? i’d have to give him that title (even though i stand by samus) he’s ONE of the defenders of the galaxy, what with the arbiter and all chiefs little friends. played 1,2 and half of 3 but what he’s done would constitute being a galaxy protector…

    samus is still a bounty hunter, everyone knows she gets pulled into things and ends up saving the day but im not sure if she ever means to purposefully go out of her way to save the galaxy, she’s crash landed, she’s been assigned for recon and stuff then she ends up saving the planet because she’s there anyway. i guess thats same as chief though kinda…

    also, why is retro studios a rookie company? because they are looking for a modeller or something?

    on January 14, 2008 1:04 pm

    Yeah i guess that chief deserves that title too… I mean he is awesome as hell.. and continueing talking like this makes the games more fun ^^ and about the rookie company thingie.. they where a rookie company but ofc they are’nt anymore :) (though they have’nt removed the job offer yet http://www.retrostudios.com) Funny.. Samus has also destroyed planets… that kind’a turns her title around =/ but Chief has’nt either saved any.. or i dont really know he could’ve saved lots o stuff =S im not sure. Please would you care to explain what he has done =) Would really like that ya know =P

    oh yaeh and did ya know that Chief was/is called the Demon?

    btw Bungie was also a rookie company ;D

    Sorry Halo fans, but I must side with Samus on this one.

    He has, as pointed out, far less armor than Samus. And I don’t believe he has immunity to Phazon missiles. Master Chief brings up a Bubble Shield? Samus rolls in in Morph Ball form and uses a Power Bomb. Master Chief can use stealth effeciently? Enter the X-ray/Thermal visor.

    Seriously people, MC would lose. Badly.

    you’re jokin right? :P just stopping the rings (the whole point of the halo games) has saved the galaxy or universe or whatever, i mean he hasen’t done it by himself but without him it wouldn’t of worked, haven’t fully played 3 yet but i assume he saves the galaxy or universe again lol. have you played the halo games?

    chief is only called the demon by the aliens whats their name i dunno but also if you read the scanners in the pirate base in echoes they call samus the hunter clad in metal or something like that, so to them they all are scared of her aswell. so its sorta like the same thing…

    also know nothing of megaman in relation to your comment on the main forum

    Yeah that was kind’a my point :o(just tried to make it somehow so the Halo fans would’nt thorw fieces on me)

    and the thing about turning the title around was just a joke ^^everything i wrote up there was more of jokes.. So you might’ve gotten it all wrong m8 =)

    Yes Samus is called hunter clad in metal or something… And did’nt you read that her name is used as a curse ^^? so i guess she has quite a big respect amongst em =)

    and i said the demon part to make some halo fans abit happy =/ cuz.. here it seems to be Halo fans supporting metroid but no metroid fans supporting Halo.. so i kind’a tried to make myself neutral somehow =)

    I could’ve said lots of stuff and make a huge comment.. But that is abit frustrating to read ^^. So i whent neutral for a sec.. but if you’d like me to return to Samus then just give me a nudge ^^

    im a fan of both games but as we know the winner would be samus hands down, with everything she’s got going for her. i’ve looked at this from a balanced view (i don’t give a damn about no halo books or what it says chiefs done in them im just goin off what they do in their games and the winner is obvious.

    good work with the jokes but on the screen it looks like your serious lol

    so over this thing i need to find out what actually happens, even though if chief wins theres obviously somethin wrong :P

    master cheif is better because his not only has books about him but also has a more rich storyline. and the reason he can’t take swords the way samus does his because the stories and games his in actually try to make it real and make it look like real life thing. not stuff you would thats been around since who knows when

    rich storyline? not that it matters but chiefs storyy invloves humans, aliens, and the parasite. the humans are trying to stop halo and the aliens are trying to start it. the flood just gets in the way and acts like a bitch

    1st game: stop halo, stop the flood
    2nd game: stop halo, stop the flood
    3rd game: stop halo, stop the flood? wait did i already say that?

    you want story look at metroid prime as the name suggests the focus of the game invloves the mystery of the metroids and the space pirates attempting to understand how they drain the pure energy from their targets. well thats the basic one. but each game has its own unique storyline(well except i think for metroid zero and super metroid). (and theres not just three of them)

    Super Metroid: investigate planet zebes to find and capture the “metroid lava”
    ZERO Mission: something liek above :P but save chozo?? i dunno
    Metroid Fusion: the suit! obviously the whole story is about stopping the spread of the virus thingy and your clone
    Metroid Prime: pretty much stop the space pirates, kill creature inside the crater?
    Metroid Prime 2: stop the ing, save planet, get your stolen gear back, attempt to kill dark samus
    Metroid prime 3: can’t say i’ve played it…

    anyways, youve got the space pirates, the metroids, the ing, the chozo, the fusion virus, dark samus (phazon induced creatures aswell) and whats halo got, somebody tell me!!!

    oh for the last time i don’t give whats in a book, its king of the game, not who can release the most second rate novels that suck off a semi decent game

    Storyline-wise, Metroid Prime 3 is go to several different planets, save them all, get corrupted, and finish off Dark Samus (I think)

    it does story line because unlike samus MC has stories in books that make you understand the games better. it not alway stop halo stop the flood there a lot of things on the way. to doing so. halo is also a much better game because you fight things that are more advanced in technology and weapons.

    Yeah, fan boys really get on my nerves. It’s a shame that the Halo Fan base is so… Lacking in reasoning skills. (Or at least the ones that are on the internet) Either that or they like it so much they can’t stand anyone else doing otherwise. Although, this goes to just about any game in existence.

    hmmm have to agree with midnight monkey on that. fighting more advanced enemy is fun on halo. id like to see a metroid patch on a halo game. you could make the enemies stronger and still kick butt with samus, how cool would that be!! screw attacking power bombing and everything around the halo world. no need for vehicles, just boost ball over a crevass, that’d be spick.

    just thinking also, if i imagine chief goin through metroid he’d do okay till halfway through the game in toras bog against the two legged dinosaur things and the moth boss, actually most big bosses would kill him in one hit. also i don’t think his suit wold resist the air of dark aether…

    wow i’ve never been sucked in to anything like this before, but here we go

    samus and cheif are pretty descently matched, except samus has all her guns on her already, cheif needs to use guns and ammo that he just randomly finds,

    the halo games don’t do a good job of portraying cheif’s actual skills that he’s supposed to have in order to make the game more challenging, so he got downgraded a bit for gameplay

    i personnally love chief more than samus, but with all due respect samus takes the cheese due to agileness, unless a pelican drops by and drops off a scorpion tank ;)

    Let’s break this down:

    Mobility: Samus’ suit is bulky and restricts movement, but it enhances speed, from her plain old strafing dash (Metroid Prime) to the hyperdash (Super Metroid). She also has the Space Jump and Screw Attack, which would keep her airborne, not to mention the Screw Attack transforming her into a mobile sphere of pure energy. Then there’s the Morph Ball, and its various techniques. Master Chief’s armor enhances his physical attributes, but lacks the bells and whistles of Samus’ Varia Suit. Advantage: Samus.

    Weapons: Samus can carry at least four different Beam types, aside from her standard Power Beam. Her beams don’t require ammo, with the exception of the Light and Dark beams–for convenience’s sake, let’s say she’s got her MP1 armaments. Then there’s her missile launcher, which has a nice, healthy stock of up to 250, and her beam/missile combos (Super Missile, anyone?). Then there’s her Morph Ball bombs, power bombs, and the Boost Ball, which could be used as a weapon (against Quadraxis, for example). For Master Chief, anything that can be a weapon, is a weapon; the only problem is that there might not be enough ammunition to hold him over. Advantage: Samus.

    Experience: Master Chief is quite a bit older than Samus, and has a wealth of combat experience. He’s an accomplished leader and a great strategist. Samus’ experience as a hunter is substantial, but she lacks the decades of field experience that the Master Chief has, as well as his tactical expertise. Advantage: Master Chief.

    Overall: A close fight, but Samus wins, overwhelming Master Chief in the end.

    okay alex i see your a fan of both games but it seems you know samus is the outright winner but you also don’t want cheif fans to get all whingy on you (as they do :P) for the first point samus’s suit isn’t bulky its made specifically for her, and all joints use expandable thingies (im too tired and its too late to get technical:P) so she’s got no disadvantage in movement.i’ve got no idea how old samus is but i’d put her at late twenties/early thirties, and she’s been training since she was… 5? somebody further up there ^^^ said the age anyways. so she’s trained with the chozo from a young age, she has chozo blood in her and she’s also faced many the mission from what i can tell of the games with many different enemies, and stopping the space pirates on many the occasion. (all those giant bosses too. chief has fough ’some’ big stuff though but not that big, maybe the scarab to kraid) so anyways gettin off the point no loss of experience either.

    also im sure samus would have some tactical expertise (she’s probably not an idiot , thats just the person playing), chief isn’t the only battle hardened warrior in this competition.

    Oh, she’s brilliant, I’m not saying she’s dumb, or not battle-hardened. She just doesn’t have the decades of actual field experience that Master Chief does. She’s got experience, but he just has more. Just like Samus has most of what Master Chief has, and then some.

    Honestly, the only edge I can think of that Master Chief could have is Cortana. Having a superintelligent AI in your head would no doubt work to his advantage. Then again, Samus can interface with her ship–and, again, visors provide tactical information.

    I think that it’ll all come down to what weapons and vehicle MC starts out with, obviously he’ll have all his grenades but if he comes out with a plasma pistol and charge shots Samus, shouldn’t that technically disable her for like a few seconds?

    It takes more than a few seconds to take down 15 layers of shielding. Plus, Samus has the Wavebuster.

    I mean I’ve learned to like chief… (though i hate them hating the Arbiter insead of the chief -.- why aiming at me!! he’s the hero not me!)
    Oh well.. Chief fans =) Some of you say chief is Agile guile and strong etc. But What makes you say samus isn’t ^.- Okay I’ve seen cheif like punchin enemy vehicles do death xD i mean taht made me laugh as a sinister man. But Chief in halo 3 has been weakened xS… Why? well He has only a shield.. not health like in the first halo… So blame bungie there =/ They made him weaker -.-

    Okay, for Samus it’s one girl against the hole galaxy! For chief? no it’s one elite (Arbiter) Against the hole galaxy… WHy? welll ” KILL THE TRAITOR!!” I mean I’m not the Halo pro! my friend here! kill him kill him not me!! Oh look here i have a greanade :D hmm where to throw where to throw… ahh on that (Dunno what they’re called) wierd things head (some hard mobs i think) Oh well, but if Samus is against the hole galaxy would she wear chief’s suit?.. Well if she had no choise =)

    But I know something that might buff em abit fair

    Put em both in thier non-upgraded gear.. some peeps think that might be a fair fight..

    And one more things for the Halo fans.. Some halo fans don’t even bother to play Metroid.. I mean i play the halo games as you’ve noticed… Btw Chief’s super weapon here accoring to you loving halo fans is a plasma rifle =P right?
    It’s energy if im correct? So energy can brake down Shields according to you guys? If so ^^ then I do wish the best of luck to chief because.. All Samus weapons are Energy.. Pure power energy, electric energy, Icy energy, Fiery energy.

    The dark and light beams are just copies.. and I don’t think they should count

    ANd in Metroid Prime Corruption she mixes energy.. I mean that would like make an imba gun! a gun overwhelmed with power! I mean Chief lacks Stamina (Show’s clearly in halo 3.. Blame bungie) So if his shield is a gonner he is a gonner.. Oh wait! OVER SHIELD! hmm =) nice one…. still she’ll brake it down eventually! But wait! Cloak! THAT HE STOLE FROM PIRATES (and they call arbiter bad -.-) Aww shiet :S i noticed that she has a thermal visor… Heat seeker that is for the one’s that are unsure =)
    Hmm Gravity hammer!! But wait once more.. Are’nt like pirate’s huge like hell like pounding on her like hell? If she survives that then she must survive the gravity hammer =/ (The Gravhammer is imba ano!! but it’s more of a Sheegot punch.. the grown one not the baby)

    So atm she does overwhelm him… But if they’re stripped of thier equipment then that would be abit more fair =)

    stripped of everything and bare minimum (besides suits of course) that would be samus with the power beam and cheif would have to take pistol i’d say, cus the power beam can’t really rapid fire and that that would be as even as you’d get it, add their weapons and maybe chief could win (with either of their best weapons at that level they could wipe each other out), but add the rest of the stuff they get oops i mean samus, cus chief gets nothin after weapons and samus smashes him, you could run out into the open and just blast chief whilst he’s firing shit at you and throwin grendaes and you’d still kill him and have enough energy for another chief

    also sorry melos but that comment at 1:19 made absolutely no sense to me :P

    Hmmm well it’s all been very well talked about and people have discussed a lot and from what has been said it seems that she would beat master chief…but you forgot one thing…I’ll let this oh so annoying halo voice over do the talking *Halo voice comes over speakers* Assassinated. shortly after due to the great deal of items/weapons/ammunitions master chief walks around with, a plasma grenade accidentally activates itself and sticks to his foot.

    I’am a fan of halo metriod prime is okay and all but master chief would win. Samus would get slaughtered oh and the guy who said that in all 3 halo games you had to do the same thing your dead wrong. here it is

    1st game: stop halo and get off halo and escape the flood.

    2nd game: find the index and get off delta halo and head to earth.

    3rd game: stop the prophet of truth from activating halo and kill him. and you must find cortana AND wipe out the flood.

    In Metroid, it takes knowledge. In halo, it takes skill. Even though I am a halo fan,in a battle between Samus and Master Chief, MC would lose. I’m not saying he sucks, and i’m not saying Samus completely owns. But look at the creators of MC and Samus. Nintendo made Samus ultra strong, along with many upgrades, suits, higher health, etc. Bungie made Master Chief not with fancy shmancy armor and upgrades, but more realistic.

    Halo 1: Find giant ringworld, halo. Defeat aliens. Find oracle. Get index. Fight flood. Escape. Destroy halo!

    Halo 2: Start on space station. Save it. Go to Earth. Slipspace rupture to Delta Halo. Defeat Prophet of Regret. Transport to High Charity. Kill Flood. Go to Ark and Escape back to Earth.

    Halo 3: Jump 2 kilometres off the Ark onto hard ground and survives without A SINGLE bruise. Fight aliens. Flood on Earth. Fight flood. Slipspace jump to Installation 00. Go through desert & the Ark. Defeat Covenant once and for all. go to crashed flood infested destroyed High Charity. Go to halo. Destroy and escape. float endless days in a destroyed ship.

    Metroid Prime: Do something. Run around killing space pirates and bosses and whatnot. Bleh bleh.

    youre missing a lot of the Metroid Prime storyline there…

    Metroid Prime 1: Receive a distress call from an abandoned pirate frigate. Follow Ridley to Tallon IV. Explore each section to unravel the mystery of the meteor that had crashed there while fighting Space Pirates. Destroy the Metroid Prime.

    Metroid Prime 2: Investigate the Federation Landing Site. Meet the Luminoth. Get energy from Dark Agon Temple and bring it to the Great Temple. Get energy from Dark Torvus Temple and bring it to the Great Temple. Get energy from Dark Sanctuary Temple and return it to the Great Temple. Find the Twelve Keys (don’t remember if its actually twelve). Go to the Sky Temple and defeat Dark Samus and the Emperor Ing. All the while, fight Dark Samus and the Space Pirates.

    Metroid Prime 3: Flee the GFS Olympus. Save Norion. Destroy the Bryyo seed. Destroy the Elysia seed. Defeat the Space Pirates at the Pirate Homeworld. Explore the GFS Valhalla. Destroy Dark Samus and Phazon on Phaaze.

    Yeh, I said that before. Nintendo overdid samus abit since she’s a female, trying to give her some respect in the gaming era, making her a wierd amazonic female (190cm length 90kg weight w/o suit)

    So.. Nintendo’s childy thoughts there =) But the games are fun ^^ try em.. If you like puzzles blended with amazing enviroments and beutiful nature (or more like pretty nature)
