No, he's not correct, he (and you) obviously love the sticky reticule aiming too much to admit that it exists, but I dont care... Kaliero is correct in that the debate is between characters, so lets move along.
Another reason I think samus is cool is because she sortof tells her story in her facial expressions (in prime). When I read the chozo lore (along with samus) I can almost picture her reactions to them [when they refer to her as 'the hatchling' especially]. That kind of ambience allows you to sortof create what kind of character you're supposed to be viewing this world through. Whereas you have chief whose dialogue is spoken, so you cannot make any 2nd guesses about what his personality is. Which is why I find chief to be boring.
To cut a long story short though, Samus' chozo technology far outweighs chiefs simple mjolnir battle suit
Remember, Sats...it's not always the technology. It's who they are, their own strengths and weaknesses. Their own heart or guts, or a split-second decision or whatever is the only thing keeping them alive, when all else fails.
Even so, I'd still not know who would win right there on this point, MC, or SA. Maybe if they made a novel for the Metroid series.
Being totally objective for this instance, the only weakness I've seen with Samus is an annoying habit of being caught off guard at the beginnings of adventures, leading to her suit malfunctioning and reverting to the original Power Suit.
And dark1365? There's plenty of very good fan fictions for Samus at Fanfiction.net, if you're willing to look. And Samus will be getting her own movie. Where's Chief's movie, huh?

lmao.. you both wish it were the truth... play q3 or counterstrike for non-sticky aiming.. I'd like to see how both of you fair in either of those games
I havent read any books or fanfiction on either franchise, Im going by the games heh. Also, it must be a prime thing for samus' armor to get damaged so often, that never happened in the other metroid games.
SaTsuJiN:
In Metroid Fusion, Samus is infected by the X-parasites, and her Power Suit has to be removed to keep her from dying. And in Super Metroid, if I remember correctly, Samus starts anew on Zebes because her fully-powered suit from the end of Metroid II was damaged when Ridley destroyed the Galactic Federation station in the game's beginning.
I'd say pit them against each other at the ends of their most recent games before this month. (That'd be Halo 1, and Metroid: Zero Mission)
I still don't have word on Chief's full offensive arsenal (Why is that, I wonder? 😉), but for Samus, thats...
The original style of plasma beam, which is a wide, far-firing beam that can go through obstacles
The Power Bomb (14 in number), which has an uber-damaging blast radius of about 5 meters
The Screw Attack, a powerful body-slamming somersault empowered with an electrical energy field.
She would also have the Gravity Suit, capable of moving through water, acid, or magma as if it were air, and of jumping about 4 meters straight up. Her energy shields would have 1499 hit points, and she would be equipped with 250 Missiles, and (I believe) 14 Super Missiles, which are each equivalent to five Missiles.
Cheif's arsenal is any weapon he can find. He isn't limited to an arm cannon and some missles. Therfore, we really don't have to give him an aresenal.
MC's face is never shown, so he can't show facial expressions, and it also adds to MC's coolness factor.
If you want MC's personality(if you can't see it from the games) and backstory, pick up Halo: The Fall of Reach and shut up.
Neither Halo nor Halo 2 have aim assist. The James Bond games have aim assist, Halo/2 does not. How do I know? I just played Counterstrike, a game that doesn't have aim assist, then I played Halo 2, and then I played Perfect Dark, which does have aim assist. CS and Halo 2 were identical, but there was a noticable difference in the aiming in PD.
And my vote rocked it in MC's favor. Whoopee!
pff Im not expecting any halo fan to come clean about the reticule assistance because no matter if armageddon came in 2 hours, you'd still pretend it wasnt there.
As for chiefs arsenal (which is only limited to the halo2 universe) is the :
Sentinel beam
brute shot
fuel rod cannon
Plasma assault rifle
covenant carbine
beam rifle
needler
plasma pistol
plasma sword
---human side---
rocket launcher [with lock-on, thanks to those darlings who cant aim]
sniper rifle
shotgun
battle rifle
sub machine gun
magnum
and quit acting like samus is only limited to her arm cannon.. thats so shallow to even mention.. she does have a free hand to punch with or wield another possible weapon (as smash brothers/smash melee clearly indicated). and noone cares about stupid halo book declaring chiefs personality.. he has about as much persona as vin diesel in xXx.. (rofl)
As much persona as Vin Deisel?? THat was clearly an uninformed statement and therefore has no validity. Read the book, then tell me he has no persona. You wouldn't, because his personality is clearly there.
There is no reticule assistance to come clean about, so just get off it.
If MC is limited to the Halo2 universe, then Samus is limited to her arm cannon and missles. Does she weild anyother weapons in her games? Nope. If you say that Samus can pick up whatever's lying around with her free hand, than MC should have the same liberty. Which would make his arsenal nearly unlimited.
