Going by voices we have Big the Cat versus a radio DJ.

Going by character we have the classic bad-ass one-liner spewing classic action hero versus some guy who looks like he belongs on a dirtbike.

I'm gonna have to go with the Duke here. Duke Nukem versus Serious Sam would have likely been a better matchup.

duke vs srs sam would be as interesting as if you are a fan of one, odds are you are a fan of both.
masterchief has for the past decade assumed himself at the vanguard of alien kickassery.
but lets face it,
the dukes back, ready and all out of gum

I'd rather have these guys around during an alien invasion.



Within two minutes of their arrival, we'll be the ones doing the exterminating.
If we are bringing WH40K into this, I'd rather be the aliens. Tyranide > Space Marines.
Wrong.

A few hundred Astartes + Ships > Millions upon millions of 'Nids + Living ships

And Deathwatch are around three times better at killing aliens than normal space marines.

Oh, that's just so that people who write fanfiction can get some wank-material. Noone ever wants to be associated with the lovely, friendly galaxy-spawning plague-aliens.

Dude, that's just racist.

..Speciest?

Well, something.

Doesn't change the fact that it's canon.

Aware of that, but even canon can be predictable and dull. But this is of course just another subjective argument. I'm Pro Tyr, you are Pro Marines. -Shrugs-

Duke Nukem. Though he might try to hit on me or something given what kind of character he is.. <.<
And could you honestly say you'd be able to resist his manly charms? -^

I vote neither and pick Jack Churchill. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Churchill]

But if I have to pick one of the two, Master Chief. Just because I haven't played any Duke Nukem games and I've played every Halo game at least once.
You sir have made the right choice.

Duke Nukem.

Because one-dimensional personalities are deeper than zero-dimensional personalities.

Master Lol? rather not. Duke Nukem will save us when it comes to it, however, as it has been pointed out in this thread already. Letting the Astartes save us would be the best choice. The Death Watch seems like the perfect fellas when it comes to an alien invasion.

Admittedly, both of them are kinda generic, but the Duke has a way stronger character. At the same time I don't like this poll because it's like comparing Doomguy to Sam Fisher. One is a blank slate, or even just a humanoid vehicle for the player to control, the other is clearly marked as 'not you' and has his own personality. I suppose you could also argue that Master Chief has a personality of his own, and it is a tad unfair to just say LOL SPESS MAREEN and be done with it, so: I've played CE and 2, and it seemed that while he was obviously the main character, his (fairly) sparse dialogue didn't really throw any pieces of his apparent personality at me. He just seemed to be a narrator in the starring role, if you catch my meaning.

Also, c'mon guys, do you want 'I need a weapon', or 'I've got ballls of steeel'.

Duke or you're a butt.
