As though that ever stopped someone calculating the power levels of Star Wars star destroyer turbo lasers vs. Star Trek ship phasers...

"Challenge Accepted"

Not even a contest, Wars factions win handily on account of ludicrous EU feats and tech manual statistics. Godlike aliens discounted obviously on both sides.

No way. Trek, brah.

There was a rather epic thread in the OT on Wars vs. Trek (with some restrictions, of course) and it ended up being a fairly epic thread. Many things were learned on all sides.

I'm not as well versed in that stuff as I am all this comic shenanigans, though.

Sorry, but by going only with numbers, Star Destroyers destroy every ship of the federation in about one blow, they go hundred of times fasters in hyperspace than warp, etc.

have fun.
 
So, how would Samus fare against Captain America? Metroid verse has some ridiculous comic book levels going on.

This time, apart from Cap Shield, he has no advantage whatsoever I think. Maybe I'm biased, but she can go to super speed, jump super high, has multiple type of weaponry gaging from Absolute Zero ice beam to Sun Heat Plasma beam passing by vibration annihilation beam, bombs, missiles, heavy missiles, ''heavy'' bombs. Let's not include X-Ray Vision, Thermal Vision, Scanner, a ship.

Also, she is a Chozo/Human Hybrid with SuperHuman Abilities WITH the Power Suit which is maybe the most modulable piece of technology of that universe. It can adapt to any tech and absorb that technology. Imagine for one moment Samus fall in Stark/Doom/Pym/Someone Armory.
 
Thanks man.
Forerunners been on - and continue to be on some bullshit. Hopefully Halo 5, etc doesn't keep up the foolishness. I felt space magic was kept to appropriate levels in the original trilogy.
The events of Halo 4 aren't any more "space magic" or "bullshit" than the doomguy killing aliens with high pitched voices using 1960s weapons on a giant hula hoop that can also wipe out sentient life within a 25000 light year radius. Oh, co-starring the world's most dangerous venus fly trap, and his trippy space pope companion.

Which is basically what the original trilogy was, and also why I loved it. <3. Halo has always had ridiculous concepts, Halo 4 is no exception.

Moving on, if we are going to use gameplay mechanics, what's stopping the Master Chief from using one of his pieces of equipment? As of Halo 4, they are a part of the standard UNSC kit for Spartans. Even if we arbitrarily ignore loadouts, what's stopping the use of gameplay mechanics? (The OP says nothing!) He could use equipment such as active camo, armor lock, and hardlight shield.

Theoretically, the Master Chief can also walk through walls, float in mid air and even jump in mid air, if we take the games literally.

However, I doubt he'll be able to beat Comic book Captain America, since the OP has not set any real conditions on how the battle progresses. It's a cage match according to a mod with a few other limitations, but I think that the battle should be broken down into different sources e.g. comic CA vs game MC or movie CA vs game MC etc etc
 
At the end of the day, Cap wins because he's a comic book character, meaning he's able to take on things that logically, should pound him into dust in seconds, because if there's one thing comic books need to have, it's contrived, bullshit ways of making their heroes do shit that they shouldn't even be able to do.

that much salt will surely give you high blood pressure.



Real talk is Cap took his Galactic Storm squad up against the Covenant? Prophets surrendering in a week.

that's overkill, we want a fair fight. and no sex shenanigans with Star Fox.



People always forget Galactic Storm, like people always forget about Invasion in DC. Despite both having major consequences that you can still see in today's comics.

hey i still have the books! lots of good books and characters came out of that.

its not some "swept under the rug event because everyone caught an L" like bloodlines

take that back! Hitman, gunfire, spark whats herface? there were a few good characters came out of that. unless you bought the whole--

i bought that whole damn set. that shit still burns. its the largest L ive ever takem

see you should have just bought the main book. it's what I did. then pick up the annuals years later for cheap.

That concept always amused me. "The avengers just can't be in enough places to stop all these global conflicts!"

"Put some in L.A. then."

"what about...the rest of the world?"

"I said LA! what else is there?"



Hell of a design flaw there. Looks like Cap has the superior suit of armor.

Powered by Patriotism. Won't run out of energy as long as you Never Forget 9/11

but this armor was made like 5-6 years before 9/11. wouldn't it have to be fueled by the first world trade bombing or the embassy bombings or black hawk down ...

would you? that one had crazy eyes. Was immortal too, good luck getting rid of her when things go bad.

everyone is always riding the Crystal bandwagon. I don't see what's so appealing about her. give me raven hair and crazy any day of the week!
 
MasterChief could beat him.

But it would just be Logan Regenerating till Master drowns him.

MC blows his head off, Logan comes back. Till he gets drowned.
 
I assume nobody has ever tried to explain how Logan could avoid starving to death and where he gets energy to regenerate entire body parts, thermodynamically speaking?
 
Chief beats Wolverine easy. All he has to do is activate the Halo Array, wiping the galaxy of all sentient life. Wolverine now has nothing to eat and is starved to death just like the Flood. Chief can use a Plasma Rifle to keep melting him until he gets too hungry to regenerate.
 
captain america no question. i mean, dude is jacked. and american. and good looking. do we even know what master chief looks like? dude probably has noodle arms and bacne.

Wolverine can eat non sentient food tho.

Not possible.

Chief can't just keep having infinite ammo. At a certain point Logan will regen and when that happens Chief is fucked.

Cap beats Wolverine all the time.

This is true.

Though by every metric it shouldn't be the case. Wolverine is equally as skilled in combat, near immortal, and practically indestructible.

Yet still they have Cap bitch slap Logan and chuck him out of a plane like it's not big deal.
 
Sorry if I'm wrong but shouldn't MC have like 3 feet on Cap? They look to have pretty similar height in the video

Edit: Just looked it up, Master Chief is approximately 7' which isn't too awesome, for some reason I always had it in my head that SPARTAN IIs were massive

If 7'2" is not massive to you, I have no idea what is.

o,0
 
Wouldn't the wave beam just pass by the shield? How does the wave beam work exactly?

Well once you get it, it passes through walls and goes through the guard of the space pirates who can block shots. So yea I think Femmeworth was right about the wavebeam against Cap, that if it did work like the game mechanics, Cap wouldn't block it. I don't know the actual (science/logical in game explanation) reasoning on why it is able to do what it does besides moving in a wave motion.

Not only that, Samus also had various trick shots like in Super Metroid that cover the screen that Cap would need something bigger than the shield to cover himself.
 
Mass/Energy from nowhere is the most common secondary mutation of all time, I'm guessing.

Just like Cyclops, who taps in to energy in another dimension. So his optic blasts are actually portals to a dimension of pure energy that comes flooding out his eyes.

So yeah, Logan gets matter and energy from another dimension. Sounds good.
 
I honestly expected a lot more out of an epic fight. But realizing that Machinima made it and not Bat in the sun just really killed the video and hype for me. Not because that Cap won.

But for the following reasons:
1. The fight was short.
2. Cap. fell out of a plane without a parachute and landed on his two feet without any injuries.
3. Punching Chief's armor would break his bones. (which 2 & 3, regardless of healing factor, that would be a significant factor against him in the fight)
4. Chief took the shield hit to his mouth piece. Not the visor.
5. Master Chief is a Spartan II. They were experimented with augmentations that even exceeded their "replacements" which were S3's & S4's (Captain's super soldier formula is the equivalent of the III's & IV's)
6. Machinimas FB post in reply to fan lashbacks was "Chief went through a lot, from being abducted from his parents, augmentated on, losing his fellow soldiers/friends, and the lose of his A.I. Companion Cortana whom went Rampant and died after saving him, which with all that into account is reason enough that He Wanted To Die." And also majority fan votes went to Captain America.

With #6 as their logic is completely flawed and illogical to the hypothetical fight scenario.

I could careless if either one of these two awesome heros were to lose in a battle. It's mainly how it was done which is why their video got bad votes. It sucked badly...

Still haven't seen the alternate version which I think it's out already by now.
