this is my last post for now since I tore ligaments in my knees, I already posted a thread on comicvine, and they said the Daniel Craig bond wins. I wanted 2 see what KMC thinks.

Bond has better gadgets, but they are of no use to him in the first two scenarios.
Scenario 1: There have been many times when Jack has engaged a group of trained trained terrorists in direct gun fights, and obviously he always wins.
Winner: Bauer
Scenario 2: I can't decide here, they are both pretty good.
Winner: Tie.
Scenario 3: Not sure what is meant by all-out? Does this mean James Bond gets all his gadgets? Then he will get the edge.
Winner: Bond
Anyway, here's my take on (I repeat: My OPINION) the two characters, and I'll try to be unbiased.
Jack Bauer, being in Delta Force, SWAT and CTU definitely has more experience in CQB seeing he is in the field pretty much his whole adult life. IMO, this means he is more efficient with small arms and definitely has more experience with CQB tactics. His unarmed combat/H2H are also top tier. Being in the CIA, he has also honed his intelligence skills and knowledge.
Special Expertise: Special Weapons and Tactics, Military Operations Skills (e.g Helicopter Piloting, demolitions etc ) and Counter Terrorism.
James Bond, on the other hand, while I'm sure also has a impressive military record, has spent most of his later life working in espionage. Of course, he is still an assassin, and has vast experience in this aspect. Typically, Bond's style is more that of a spy, using his charm, deception and wits to accomplish his goals, a more classy character. Of course, make no mistake, he can resort to more drastic measures when he needs to, and he is definitely just as capable in that department. Also, he has a better intelligence skills due to his line of work. In addition, he also has a load of high tech gadgets.
Special Expertise: Assassination, Infiltration by Stealth, Infiltration by going Undercover, efficient use of High tech gadgets and Espionage/Reconnaissance.
So IMO, they are both elite, but they also excel in different aspects. So overall, who is really better depends on the circumstances.
Also, sorry if this is irrelevant but I must include a stat profile for my favorite character:
Gender: Male Location: 4th Street Underpass, Manhattan
Bumped.
I agree with Placidity on the first two. I think by all out, he means "melee whatever's-in-reach" fight, in which, based on screenfeats, Bond may take the edge, since Bauer is more of a shooter than a fighter
I don't know though. Jack is worse than Mike Tyson in the H2H ring alone, since he goes for throats not ears . Also, anyone willing to watch the "Abu Fayed fight" I have in my sig shows a good scene of Bauer using improvised weapons. It's up for debate though
