battle of the mains.

[RPGfreak]

I want to know which main characters you want to pair off in a epic battle and see who wins by votes from our peers in the vidio game world.

 

[willard3]

Here's some ideas.

Sam Fisher (Splinter Cell) vs. Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)
Yoshitsune (Genji) vs. Dante (Devil May Cry)

 

[RPGfreak]

OK THE BATTLES BEGIN, SAM FISHER (Splinter Cell) vs. SOLID SNAKE (Metal Gear Solid)
here is where you now start the polls. who do you think will win. the polls will close in about a week.

 

[Dannager]

One that's been on my mind lately is Garret (from the Thief series) versus the assassin from the upcoming Assassin's Creed. Garret is a long-standing champion when it comes to stealth-based objectives, while the assassin appears to prefer a more mobile, cerebral approach to his craft.

As for Sam versus Snake, my money's on Agent Fisher. He's got better moves and better gear, and the only weapon he needs to bring to a fight against Snake is a pin-up girl poster.

Ditto. I vote for Sam as well. Plus he has cooler interrogation techniques than Snake's "speak!".

Before I can start and poll on that pairing I will need to know the name of the assassin.

But remember, we're talking Solid Snake here, not Big Boss, and Solid Snake beat Big Boss, making him cooler and better. In my opinion anyone who can

*SPOILER* (highlight to see)
beat a nuclear equipped walking battle tank
*END SPOILER

will be darn hard to beat. And as for Sams cardboard cutout, it will fry from Snake's Niketa missle.

Solid Snake FTW. (sorry, I had to do that)

The character from Assassin's Creed is named Altaïr. But is it really fair? They have completely different purposes. Garret's is to steal stuff, and Altaïr's is to kill people.

And I'm sure both of them are capable of doing either with some degree of success. The purpose of the thread, however, is to see who would win in an epic battle. Both Garret and Altaïr have certain skills that allow them an advantage in combat. I think it'd be interesting to see which one's style would win the day.

With that in mind Dannager, WhirlwindMonk and I had an intense but ridiculous "argument" about Sam and Snake earlier today. Do we take mechanics of the games into account (such as MGS's allowing you to survive sustained machine gun fire) or just what you (the player) can do? Cause in that case, Snake would win hands down because MGS games are so over-the-top and Splinter Cell games are so realistic.

Forget about that kind of stuff, it is just the two of them fighting with their skills and with their standard issue guns, no more no less.

Perhaps we should assume that when discussing which character would win we are speaking of the characters fighting in the equivalent of a live-action movie - i.e., no video game holdovers like the ability to absorb damage like a tank. Imagine if Snake were a real person and Sam Fisher were a real person, then decide which would win.

That is it exactly

 

[ThePosterFormerlyKnownAs]

I'd like to see Kratos and Ryu Hayabusa go at it.

 

[Dannager]

I'd like to see Kratos and Ryu Hayabusa go at it.

My vote: Ryu Hayabusa. Kratos isn't even a pirate, so there's not much of a contest there.

 

[RPGfreak]

guys we already have a battle going so plz cast your votes. I will start another one or two when this one is over, it's between Sam Fisher and Solid Sanke.

 

[Sketcher]

Fisher.

 

[WhirlwindMonk]

Snake.

 

[RPGfreak]

Ok guys want to let you know that I'm going to extend this poll for another week so the Fisher v. Snake battle will end on the 12th of Septimber. I am also starting another bettle, this one is Yoshitsume (Genji) v. Dante (Devil May Cry) this one will end on Septimber 15th.
