I think I need to make this clear. Master Cheif's suit is not seven layers of protective armor, it is a seven layerd suit. In The Fall of Reach, one plasma bolt burned through an unsheilded Spartan with one shot. His sheild can only take as much as one of Samus's energy tanks. Samus's suit is superior to Mjolnir in every way, every feature of it has already been stated. At the beggining of Halo 2, Cheif's gets in an almost brand new suit modified by techs. Samus gets to upgrade her suit on the feild right upon acquiring new technology.
An Elite in no way an equal to Master Cheif. Elites are as strong with a better sheild. Master Cheif is faster and smarter than them. Samus is stronger than all of them, she can rip and tear through walls and enemies. She uses the Speed Boost and the Screw Attack to do those things. We already know she is faster and has more dexterity. She is also way more intelligent and partially psychic, as players will understand when playing a Metroid game.
If you've played a 2-D Metroid, you'll know that some of Samus's beams can pass through walls. One possible scenario is Samus with the X-ray visor blasting enemy through the walls.
And Yes, a Warthog would bounce off of Samus and Samus would bounce backwards. Have you seen the size of some of the Bosses she fights? Her armor sheild has always held strong, even when she is getting crushed by something. A Warthog would definitly be totalled hitting her.
You Halo worshipers must get it through yours heads, Samus's suit is superior to Master Cheif's. It has no limit to the power it can acquire, it can keep getting better no matter what. In Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, her fully upgraded Light Suit would receive "bee sting" damage from a projectile weapon in Halo 2. (One shot from the Sonic gun or one missle and Master Cheif would be vaporized, I don't care how strong or cool you think he is)
what about the big stone boss in metroid prime? doesn't it roll over samus and damage her?
