Notes
This is a big one, fanboys and fangirls. Obviously, coming from vastly different universes, there are a few rules that have to be set in place for the match. The biggest one is that this fight is between the most recent GAME incarnations of each character. Not the books, not the comics. Also, since the weapons are different in each game, for this match, Gordon and Master Chief pick up their weapons on the battlefield, and they are generic weapons, not from either particular game. A pistol, shotgun, sniper rifle, RPG and SMG are provided for each combatant, and in addition, Gordon gets his crowbar and the regular Gravity Gun, and Master Chief gets 3 plasma grenades.
The Scenario
The fight takes place on an unknown planet with similar gravity and atmosphere to earth. The terrain is an abandoned city, and there are no additional health packs available.
The Fight
Gordon and Master Chief begin on opposite ends of the city, and begin travelling through towards the center, gathering weapons along the way. A huge empty city center provides the arena for the fight, with mounds of rubble littering the ground. Master Chief witnesses a small human in an grey suit walking towards the center of the square, holding an orange glowing device unlike anything he’s seen. Unintimidated, he arms himself with the shotgun and barrels towards him, opening fire once in range. Gordon reacts quickly, ducking for cover, but not before recieving a hit from the shotgun. Gordon switches to the shotgun as well, returning fire while strafing from barricade to barricade. The shots that hit take down the Chief’s shields, which regenerate quickly. Master Chief, not phased by the attacks of his smaller opponent, throws a plasma grenade, succeeding in drawing Gordon out. Gordon switches to the gravity gun and grabs a large piece of debris to use as a shield and begins approaching his huge opponent. Master Chief takes advantage of Gordon’s temporary blindness and charges him, punching right through the rubble, to Gordon’s surprise. Gordon quickly switches to his trusty crowbar, whacking futilely at the heavy MJOLNIR armor. Master Chief knocks the crowbar aside and picks Gordon up, preparing to finish the job. However, Gordon grabs a plasma grenade off Master Chief’s thigh and activates it, sticking it to him. In his moment of surprise, Master Chief drops Gordon as the grenade detonates, killing him. Gordon is injured by the blast, but survives. Gordon Freeman wins.
The Outcome
A very close battle, and one that could easily go either way. However, in this particular matchup, Gordon Freeman is the winner.
