I voted Link...mainly because Gordon Freeman, as a story character, is bland, generic, and nothing more then a empty vessel with a name.

Edit: Out of the four mentioned in the OP I would have voted for Samus though. She actually has some form of character and charm unlike the others...not to mention her actually saving the galaxy.

You know it all depends on the situation it probably be a close quarter combat so link would definitely be the winner.

Crowbar > Sword, as has been scientifically proven with science.

Besides, what makes you say it would be close combat?

If most nintendo fanboys are aged 7-8, they haven't seen any Zelda either. Zelda Games are fucking decades older than half life. Yeah, half-life was a cool game, but let's face it, it wasn't Mr. Freeman who made it good. Infact, he didn't add anything to it at all.

In the Half-Life universe science is the study of pressing buttons, plugging things in and stacking crates. Forgive me if I wait for mythbusters to do the crowbar vs master sword special.

Totally agree with you on that one butwouldn't that equate the same for Link? The only Zelda games I have ever played was Oracle of Ages and Link could have been replaced by a mushroom for all the good he brought to the storyline.

I doubt it. A grown man with a powersuit and a crowbar vs. an effeminate boy with a tunic and a sword; I think Link would win!
/sarcasm

And don't forget the physics gun!

Also, how is it possible to have a contest between two games not even in the same general? That's like having a vote on which is better, puppies or apples...
I think you meant genre, but yes, I see your point.

Let the record state that puppies > apples.

The two silent heroes...

I'm going with Link for sure on this one, then Mario assuming he gets to the finals.

Even though this whole competition is full of shit it still ended up with what I thought it was gonna be. Nintendo came out with the real faces of the gaming industry, about anyone in the world sees Mario and knows what he's from.

I'm voting for Freeman, because I'm really tired of seeing Link and Mario at the top of this thing everytime!
