Come on guys! I mean, sure Kratos has taken down gods, but every time it was with help (pandora's box, tricking Zeus). And yeah he's taken out Ceburous, but Snake has taken out Metal Gears before and tanks. Comparing Ceburous to Metal Gear is like comparing a T-rex to a tank.
Kratos kills snake. rips him in half actually and gives one piece to liquid and one to solidus. this is not even a match. you're talking about a guy who physically over powered giant demons, tore men in half and godknows what else. Snake has insane endurance and stamina but as much as i like Big Boss, he can't beat Kratos hand to hand. even with CQC, it'll be a btch cuz all kratos needs is to get his hands on Snake.
Kratos: I AM THE GOD OF WAR!
Snake: *head shot*
*head shot*
more experience in forests, great shooter.
*ripps snake in half and gives him to liquid and solidus again*
not a fight again.
about the only match that isn't spite. Snake was somewhat impatient himself but Kratos never struck me as a tactile genius. in his best days he did a frontal attack with 5000 soldiers. on his worse days he took on gods and demons and whatnot on his own.
Considering he was thrown about a mile and through at least 10 feet worth of stone feeling, and felt fine enough to have a threesome right after, yes, yes he can.
Kratos can also just send them back at Snake.
Jungle fight? Kratos burns the forest down. And if Snake does any fancy BS CQC stealth shit...Kratos just falls him in a single blow.
I have GOW, but haven't played much of it. Has Kratos beaten anyone on par with a metal gear FACE TO FACE (not hiding behind a deck and doing a bunch of minigames.)
Kraken doesn't cound because a metal gear could probably take it down, and he never fought all the hydra heads at once.
Gods don't count either because every time he cheated/got help.
You mean aside from the Colossus of Rhodes, Minotaur of Pandora's Temple, the Hydra's main head, the Sisters of Fate, or at least half a dozen cyclopses? All of whom he took on singlehandedly btw, and at least two of whom would wreck a Metal Gear out of sheer size and physical power.
It's also not like Metal Gear REX could take all the Hydra heads at once. Its main head alone was larger than REX or RAY, was fast enough in its own right, and the only reason it was killed was because of Kratos sheer brute strength which would probably help him do to something like REX what he did to the Colossus of Rhodes when it tried to crush him under its foot.
Of his fights with the Gods, Kratos only got "help" in his battle with Ares. He took Zeus and Persephone on his own. It was them who had been helped fighting Kratos; Kratos would've killed Zeus had Athena not arrived, and even with Atlas pounding the tower for half the fight with Persephone before being ordered to kill Kratos (which he failed at), Kratos still killed Persephone. The only reason the Gods wouldn't count is because it just tips the scales even further in Kratos' favor.
Well let's see, he beat the Minotaur of Pandora which was about as big as the MGs. He beat a gigantic Collossus of Rhodes, and at one point tossed it a mile away when it tried to crush him. He beat the Sisters of Fate, who control the very fabric of time itself. He was able to hold his own to Zeus in combat, but when overpowered, I admit he had to resort to trickery. He overpowered the Hydra. He killed the Kraken, actually was able to break its grip when using Rage of the Titans. He killed Euryale, who was 30 feet long and could turn a living creature to stone with a look. Kratos was able to resist being crushed by Atlas for God's sake, who in GOW is at least holding up the crust of the planet, though in Greek Legend it is much more.
1. No amount of CQC experience will save Snake from someone whose strength, durabilty, and killer instinct are as high a level as someone who can whitstand being caught in a giant reptile's jaws and subsequently slammed into a wall, only to slam said reptile's head to the ground the moment it attempts to attack again. Kratos would probably be able to saunter through Snake's attacks, and (literally) tear him apart.
2. Kratos doesn't even know what the hell a gun is, which are the only weapons Snake tends to use. Nevertheless, Kratos has the means to send any projectile right back at the sender two fold. Snake's best weapons tend to have infinite ammo, or the capcuty to destroy things like a Gekko with a powerful enough shot. One or two of Kratos' weapons also have projectile properties, and just one swing from the Blade of Olympus reduced a city's worth of soldiers into bloody heaps of empty armor. It depends on how you want to look at it.
3. If Kratos can take fighting hordes of demons in the Underworld, he can take one man in a forest. Though I would say this also depends on how you want to look at it.
4. Immense spite. With or without his God of War form (which would allow Kratos to kill an entire army full of someone like Snake with just a single gesture), Kratos wins this.
is it just me or does anyone from the comic vs forums get the feeling that this guy is just going to one day break out and start singing 50 Cent whip ya head boy?
1. kratos, rips his head off
2. kratos, chops him with a huge ass combo
3. kratos, picks up tree and kills him with it
4. snake, cus hes better. lol jk kratos pwns.
5. kratos, he was the leader of the spartan army, got through pandoras temple which takes plenty of knowledge, and has the ablility to intimidate snake lol. It would be a great match, but in the end i think kratos has the knowledge to win. But DJ's ending is kickass.

But if they had to, they could. And Kratos has been hurt by swords many times. Now sure, they were swords used by mystical warriors, but they were still just swords.
