Epic video: Master Chief vs Samus
There's nothing that gets fanboys in a tizzy quite like fictional battles between our favorite characters. If there is one battle royale that was destined to happen, it must be the Master Chief vs. Samus Aran, Nintendo's famous intergalactic bounty hunter. We're just going to come right out and say it: the video embedded above, created by Monty Oum, is epic. It is fan made cinema on a grand scale. There are a few liberties taken with the Halo canon, but we can live with it for work this good. We're not going to spoil the surprise ending, so you'd best watch it yourself. If anything, this proves one thing: Master Chief belongs in Smash Bros (it proves some other more ... stimulating things as well, but that would be spoiling it).
Check out the video and let your opinion be known.

I am pretty sure that was not master Chief if so then MC is a girl. I think not. So I think it is the Sparten from Dead or Alive. It was made pretty good but did not like the ending. Plus it was cool to finally see a Sparten being able to use a Jackel shield. So I hope that is the third item you can use with the X button.
That being said I think it was good and hope to see other characters face off.

The whole time I was watching it, I was thinking this is Halo meets Devil May Cry.

okay that was good right up until masterchief took off HIS armor. he is mastercheif, he never takes it off. and he is not an asian lesbian in spandex. all that work went to waste because of the end. plus, mastercheif is american and wouldn't pull those very anime esque moves. instead he would just walk in and shoot the crap out of everyone. maybe if the last minute was cut out it woulod be half decent

Awesomeness personified!!! Nice to see Spartan 468 (Female spartan from DOA) kicking ass like her bro the chief. Samus was an awesome challenge too.
Great great great props to Monty Oum. These peeps should get a contract and make the Halo movie. Screw those Warner Bros tightwads.
Fine work and a great tribute to the Haloverse and a fine fine Ninty character.

I'm pretty sure Master Chief isn't a female either, but maybe they're using the spartan from DOA4, you know that female master chief

WOW! This was a great video! Who cares if it's not accurate on so many levels? This is truly a work of (cinematic) art! How long did it take to complete? And what program was used for animation and character modeling?
And yes, we all know that Master Chief (John) is a guy, so maybe this is one of the female Spartans from the trilogy? And of course she's a lesbian! (She's in the army!) ;)

WTF are you asshats talking about?
That video was horrible, the animation was good and probably took a long time, but the "choreography" was all blatantly ripped off the matrix.
One obligatory matrix reference is enough, but I saw at least 10.
And what the hell was the point in using Samus and a Spartan? If the creator came up with his own IP and didn't steal all his "choreography" from the matrix it would have been good.
Oh yeah, and all fanboy aside, the spartan would have won, Samus isn't biologically augmented like the spartans are.

Jeph, if you read the text you would have known that he made it with master chief to get attention. If it wasn't master chief, the covenant, and samus then you probably would never have seen it in the first place.
The matrix rip off were lame though.
Also, only nerds like action. I'd rather see Master Chief and Samus duke it out in a game of chess.

nice production values, but no originality whatsoever, just about every scene was taken from one of the Matrix films or some other aforementioned videogame.
