This is a debate that happened on another form I frequent. I thought that I'd bring the debate here.
This is a compare/contrast debate, because any strait
up "So and so would kill whoever so fast his life would flash before his
eyes in fast forward" debate would be pointless ( as these debates become more about the situation the fight would occur in that would allow one party the advantage). So that's what the list is for. DO NOT post any "So and so would totally
kill the others because..." posts. You can add another section to the list and if it's reasonable, it will become part of the ongoing total. So here's the first list that I grabbed. There's more, but I'll post it later.
1.Armour
Fett: His Mandolorian Amour is pitted and scared, contains more hidden weapons
then all the middle east combined, and gives off a vibe of complete and utter
doom. It also fails to cover a large part of his body, leaving him
exposed to attack in any of his joints.
Chief: Surrounded in his MJOLNIR armor, he has enhanced reflexes and strength, the
ability to store a "smart" artificial intelligence (Cortana is not
included with the suit), not to speak of an incredible regenerating shield.
It is also bulky, hinders acrobatic movements, and is an unholy shade of green.
Freeman: His smart Hev suit has a flashlight, radio, Geiger counter, morphine
administrator, oxygen and stamina boosters, anti-toxin delivery system and a chargeable "shield"
of sorts, all run by a built in A.I. It is also a tolerable shade of
colors and is gap free.
Winner: Freeman. Fett in a close second and Chief in third.
2. Helmet.
Fett: Contains all sorts of vision and hearing enhancers, voice command links,
jamming and scanning equipment, is nigh indestructible, and is just plain cool
looking.
Chief: It keeps him from getting his head taken off by a plasma
bolt... Oh, it has a flashlight too.
Freeman: What helmet? (Yeah, come on, even if he does he never wears it.)
Winner: Fett. He is his mask for Pete's sake. Chief gets second
because at least he's got a helmet.
3. Weapons
Fett: He has a modified EE-3 carbine rifle, a Tenloss DXR-6 disruptor rifle, a
blaster pistol, and an uncountable number of weapons in his amour.
Chief: A few human made projectile based weapons and whatever alien weapons he
can scavenge. The needler is obscenely cool. The rest are simply standard
weapons.
Freeman: A couple of normal pistols, a SMG, grenades, guided RPG's, a shotgun,
a crossbow, and a Overwatch Standard Issue Pulse Rifle.
Winner: Fett, duh. Freeman and Chief tie, on account of needler/OSIPR tie. (Note: this could change as I have not yet played or Halo 3)
4. Gadgets
Fett: False eye/finger scanners, tracking devices, other items helpful in
breaking and entry and a Jetpack
Chief: Uhh...I can whack things with the butt of my gun...
Freeman: A nifty crowbar and a Gravity gun. What am I saying! It's a
freaking Zero-point energy gun! The environment is my plaything! Mwaaahaha!
Winner: Freeman. It's not even close. All hail the Gravity gun!!! All
Hail!!! Fett 2nd, Chief 3rd. (Again, this might change as I haven't played Halo 3)
5.Strength
Fett: Pretty strong.
Chief: I can bench press a Warthog and not even break a sweat.
Freeman: Well, he's pretty str...oh, what am I saying? He can't even
climb over a chest high wall.
Winner: Chief. Fett comes in second, with Freeman trailing miserably in
third.
6. Stamina:
Fett: I can chase after my merchandise for a while...
Chief: I run for three day without eating. Heck, I can fight an alien
armada while continuously hopping for three days without sleeping or eating.
Freeman: I can run for about a minute. Less, if my flashlight is on. (Fixed as of episode two, but still not as good as the others).
Winner: Chief again. Fett 2nd and puffing away in third is good old freeman.
7. Intelligence:
Fett: Bounty Hunting, while sharpening the mind, is more blue collar than white
collar...
Chief: If it doesn't involve killing, it's not worth knowing...
Freeman: He's a theoretical physicist for crying out loud.
Winner: Freeman. Fett barely beats Chief.
8. Allies
Fett: What allies?
Chief: A couple of marines, and one good looking A.I. (and an alien armada as of episode three I believe...)
Freeman: The human resistance, an alien race, a bunch of scientists, and (if
you've got the bugbait) Antlions.
Winner: Freeman and Chief tie. Fett wins too, but in a different way.
9.Agility:
Fett: I jump, roll, flip, dive, and whatever else needs be done. I'd give
an Olympic gymnast a run for their money.
Chief: I get close, but this amour won't let me do a handspring.
Freeman: I'm a theoretical physicist, not a physical therapist.
Winner: Fett, than Chief, then freeman.
10. Enemies.
Fett: He picks and chose’s who he's going to take on for the most part.
And he fights the scum of the galaxy, not the empire. Heck, he works for
the empire.
Chief: An alien race bent on our destruction and space zombies that threaten
galaxy wide destruction.
Freeman: An interdimetional alien race bent on our destruction and zombies.
Winner: Freeman and Chief tie. I mean, fett, you're cool and all, but I
don't find your enemies all that bad.
11. Persona
Fett: The most heartless being in the galaxy. Emotionless and fearless, he is
his mask and his mask is him.
Chief: To his enemies, the demon. The one being that haunts them, whose appearance
causes them to flee in utter terror. To his allies, a living weapon
capable of single handedly keeping the enemy at bay.
Freeman: To his allies, a messiah figure, a bond breaker (to the Vortigaunts at
least), "the last free man". To his enemies, a simply
man. Not a soldier, not a warrior with advanced weapons training, a simple man who will just. not. die.
Winner: They all win this one.
Tally: (2 points for 1st, 1 for 2nd. Ties score the same.)
Fett: 13 points
Chief: 13 points
Freeman: 13 points
Well, it's a three way tie. I'll add more later, but I'm too dang tired
now. So, if you disagree, agree, or think I missed something post below
and I'll change the totals later.
Edit: In retrospect this is an obscenely long post. Sorry everyone for
forcing you to read this.
