Ahhhhhhhhhh, Strafex is gradually being turned. ;-p
I've not rpelied in a while (ironically, you can blame MC for that!), but I'll be back, and this time I'll have the advantage of knowing my enemy! :-)

What makes you think Mario would still be as mobile while wearing MC style armour ? We're talking about a guy that gets hurt by snowballs and mushrooms. ;-))
If he was behind the gun in Duck Hunt - no wonder the dog used to laugh. ;-)
And as for being trained by Joanna Dark, hmmmmmmmm, I think it would take more than that to get some fat plumber turned into a well trained killer.
;-))

And Mario is hopeless if he faces anything but the likes of some big bad mushroom or a turtle. The guy would probably struggle being a doorman at Mothercare. ;-))

Hmmmmmmm, somehow I don't think Mario would be "plocking" a Scorpion Tank mate - even if he is a fat 20st plumber on drugs. ;-)

He'd be bleeding within seconds - its hard to miss someone as fat as him.

Besides its usual shots, it also has a charge shot thats fired with the other shoulder button - kind of like a missle shot. You'd never get behind the Banshee to do anything dangerous mate. ;-))

Take the Covenant where ? Disneyland ? ;-)) Plus Samus hasn't got the weaponry to deal with the Flood. From the footage I've seen of her latest outing she has enough trouble dealing with one opponent or Metroid at a time let alone a mass of Flood. ;-))
And before you give it the plock, plock stuff with Mario - they'd just rush up him and take they're latest victim. ;-)

Actually, Pikmin would burn up on MasterChiefs shield - they wouldn't even penetrate it. ;-))
That happens to the Flood infection and they're a lot bigger than Pikmin. ;-))

But MC would be using the power of X-Box, so all of Mario's carcusses would still be visible everytime MC pops off another one. ;-))
At least it could make for a nice anti plumber scene. ;-))

But unlike fantasy games where its one shot every 10 seconds, it would be a case of pumping these cack characters with bullets constantly until they're dead. No sportsman like conduct of waiting for them to get up and jump around - just shower the little gits until they stop breathing. ;-)

Mario only uses it to protect himself from MC's initial cheating, by using guns, anyway.
If they were BOTH given the same weapons and armour, Mario would have a clear advantage of being more mobile and better at jumping.
And before you say he can't use a weapon, not only did he use weapons in both Smash Brothers games, he was probably shooting in duck hunt, as well as being trained by Joanna Dark (who was scoring heatshots while Master Chief was a mere wireframe!!!).

Ah, but something that kills a real person, wouldn't harm a fantasy one so much.
An unrealistic character falls into molten lava and flys out screaming and burning but recovers by eating some fruit.
A realistic one just fries on the spot.
A realistic character is blow to pieces by and explosion which would just make an unrealistic one flash a few times as they lost some "energy".

Ah, but something that kills a real person, wouldn't harm a fantasy one so much.
An unrealistic character falls into molten lava and flys out screaming and burning but recovers by eating some fruit.
A realistic one just fries on the spot.
A realistic character is blow to pieces by and explosion which would just make an unrealistic one flash a few times as they lost some "energy".

If they're that small then they won't exactly have much grip to climb something as big as MC then will they. ;-) It'll be a case of running over them and enjoying the death under MC's foot.
And if there were loads of these Pikmin, they would be spotted as they would cover a decent area as they run along like zombies. So again, throw a nice plasma grenade and enjoy the fireworks. ;-)

Yeah MC is a cyborg. ;-)
Anyway, onto the post I promised Strafex. ;-))
Anyway, onto the post I promised Strafex. ;-))
I don't think Mario/MC are even Human, MC is a cyborg and Mario is a cartoon character..........
I won't be on again until 9-ish anyway! :-)
Ok just read through your reply Strafex. ;-) I have to go out right now but I'll be back later to reply cause it'll take too long to do it right now. ;-))
Expect a reply around 6pm - 7pm. ;-)

Right...
So first he needs a powerful shield (which is fair enough in some ways I suppose), then he needs to arm himself with an array of massive weapons (cheating considering he's up against an un-armed opponent, but hey, it's the only way this guy has a slight chance), and now he has to fly away and hide in the sky?
And you're saying this guy isn't a wuss?
Tell him to come down when he's ready to fight like a real man, otherwise I'll send Mario up, in Lakitu's cloud, with an invincibility star, "PLOCK!" the Banshee, causing MC to fall out, and then if he survives the fall (which he won't in his world of realism!), Mario will run in to him with a "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "1 UP!"! :-D

The tank is indestructable, but it still flips when you shoot at it.
Mario hit's it with a "PLOCK!", it flips up, not destproyed, but it flips, sending Master Chief flying, exposed for the "PLOCK!"! :-D

I bet Master Chief is a Ninty! He probably plays a Gamecube during loading times. You think he'd rather play an Xbox?

Kill, kill, kill! That's all Master Chief can do...

Well if he can do it with fire, water and ice, there's no reason why he can't do it with bullets and missiles... :-D

He's planning on blowing himself up?
He wouldn't see the Pikmin coming until they were on him.
Sure, kill a bunch of Pikmin as part of self-sacrifice, there's plenty more where they came from.
I don't see lots of expendable "Master Chiefs"'s! :-D

The thing is, he's not that hard.
Sure he's got all these weapons and armour, but without it he can't survive falling into Lava (Mario might jump out screaming, but atleast he's alive! :-D), falling from great height, or being flattened by a boulder etc...
He's held back by realism.
That's why he'll never stand a chance against fantasy.
Now Sega characters, they're a different kettle of fish...

Right...
So first he needs a powerful shield (which is fair enough in some ways I suppose), then he needs to arm himself with an array of massive weapons (cheating considering he's up against an un-armed opponent, but hey, it's the only way this guy has a slight chance), and now he has to fly away and hide in the sky?
And you're saying this guy isn't a wuss?
Tell him to come down when he's ready to fight like a real man, otherwise I'll send Mario up, in Lakitu's cloud, with an invincibility star, "PLOCK!" the Banshee, causing MC to fall out, and then if he survives the fall (which he won't in his world of realism!), Mario will run in to him with a "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "PLOCK!", "1 UP!"! :-D

The tank is indestructable, but it still flips when you shoot at it.
Mario hit's it with a "PLOCK!", it flips up, not destproyed, but it flips, sending Master Chief flying, exposed for the "PLOCK!"! :-D

I bet Master Chief is a Ninty! He probably plays a Gamecube during loading times. You think he'd rather play an Xbox?
I know he's strong and all, but how's he meant to take out the Covenant whlie he's carrying a huge behemoth like THAT around the battle field! :-D

Fox is a better pilot though.
Why? Because I control him! :-P
