The gravity gun is not that short ranged tbh and its not like Gordon does not have a large array of other weapons to choose from, including pulse guns, singularity blasts and tracking missle weapons.
Gordan has like, Human Durability. One shot in the head, where he is not protected by his suit, and Gordan dies.
Why would Gordon have to pull it out? its a great big rifle, hes not stowed it anywhere, and your acting like Gordon is just a scientist, he has fought his way through entire citadels of enhanced soldiers with superior weapons than him throughout almost the entire games series. And in the first Half life, he has defeated the Xen alien race if I recall, including their master.
The fact the G-man uses him as a super mercenary across time dictates he is not just some "scientist"...
he is more capable than you give him credit for
And Master Chief goes around soloing giant superior alien armies. Fun Stuff.
As Alyx has shown, the Gravity Gun is heavy. He will not be aiming it like it's weightless.
Why would Gordan be carrying that exact gun around in the first place? And yes, he does have it stowed somewhere, in the great, invisible carrying case all videogame character have 131
And as Dr. Breen has said, Gordan is not some stealthy assassin or highly trained soldier, he's a scientist, a physicist to be exact.
Not as capable as Chief.
nah, hes shown to be>soldiers before, Chief being a super soldier gives him little advantage, certainly not in the area of simply aiming a gun and fireing. All Gordon has to do is aim the weapon and pull the trigger and this massive orb comes flying out to disintegrate chief AND can bounce around making it something Chief would have to take into account if somehow he does survive it.
If anything they both die, both fire at the same time, Chief gets disintegrated.
You make it sound like pulling up his gun and pulling the trigger is an advanced tactic...

Chief wins due to superhuman reactions, perfect accuracy, and the will to do whatever it takes to win.As soon as Gordan twitched, the Chief would have drawn and fired. He in no way would give him time to pull up his weapon. I don't care if it's "not the honorable way" it's war.
What feats do he have to suggest this?

Those soldiers don't have shit on Chief, so I don't see your point.All Chief has to do is pull out and aim a pistol, which is by far lighter than a rifle or the gravity gun.
Is that why said orbs could one-shot Striders? Oh wait, they can't.
Point being, their soldiers superior in theory to a scientist, thing is..it didnt help them did it....
And all Gordon has to do is lift his rifle and fire in Chiefs general direction.
lol what comparisons does Chief have to a strider? and it can indeed one shot hunters and pretty mucn anything else other than striders.
