The Charged Plasma Pistole (from Halo) wipes out his shields [and overshield if he has one] in a single shot. That weapons has a maximum possiblitiy of delivering some 450,000 watts of power in that bolt at best.

The Volt Driver, a weapon that is a fraction as powerful as an uncharged Plasma Beam, delivers at LEAST 2,000,000,000,000 watts of power in a single bolt.now samus easily shrugs direct hits from the volt driver.1 shot does a maximum of 3 damage against samus her shielding.2,000,000,000,000 watts of power directly hitting samus and only a pathetic 3 units of damage?

your turn to tell me what MCs 450,000 watts of power is going to do. or even more funny his bullets?

to be honest with you the people who programmed MP:H and throwed the terrawatt level in it proberly didnt know what they where doing.a small weapon which can generate terrawatts of power is really over the top (terrawatts are enough to power entire cities with).but hey its in the game so should be considered canon.

k, let me see if i understand basically if samus were to face an enemy of halo, and attack with the volt driver it wouldnt just kill the enemy in question, but it would do an overkill?, wow, now thats what i call power, and adding that samus has a lot of armament under her suit, she could just kill MC and the entire antagonist of halo, in the blink of an eye?, if thats a yeah, well we should seek a mod to close this thread, due that there is no point in arguing with those facts.

For thsoe who say MC can use a bullet to penetrate samus armor, it can neither any of the hacking weapons of the MC, basically samus suit is a mix of chozo and luminoth technology, 2 great races, both that had such an illumination, and skill at mechanics, for beings more specific:

Rezbits can hack samus armor only and only due that they share similar technologies, nor in MP1, MP3, or MPH, there has been the case, now onto her armor, samus has an equivalent of somethign around the 900 or so shields, samus can have around 10 energy tanks, each meanings a new shield layer, each consisting of 99 points, so it would be 99X10=990, so samus has 990 shields all over her, and why you die when you dont have any tanks left? its due that the armor is alreday at a critical points, samus has alreday expended all the shields leavin her totally unprotected, MC simply as far as i know cant compete with that kind of of defense power, now moving onto a list of all prime series of weapons (and yeah im meaning it just prime, not any other metroid game, yet):

MP1:

Power beam.

Wave Beam.

Ice beam.

Plasma beam.

Charged attacks:

Super missile.

Wave buster.

Ice spreader.

Flame thrower.

Phazon beam (it counts as a variant of the power beam.)

MP2:

Power Beam.

Ligth beam.

Dark Beam.

Anhilation Beam.

MP3:

Power Beam.

Plasma Beam.

minnign Beam.

Hyper Beam.

Hyper Missile.

Hyper Bomb.

Hyper Grapple.

COMBO, Hyper Drainer.

Basically, give a look at all what samus has, Vs a limited ammo,and limited fire power.

yup its overkill.and then you gotta realize that the voltdriver is 1 of the WEAKEST weapons in metroid.

btw all credit goes to a site called factpile.its a site that specializes in VS topics. and i just passed by and collected the terrawatt information there.http://www.factpile.com/master-chief-vs-samus.htm#comments

i never went all the way with hunters, due thats incredaibly hard to aim to anything, unlike it was in the demo, still MC is at a full disavantage, also i think the wave beam, migth be more power than the voltdriver, if not equally pwioerfull, but gotta to admit, wave buster does puts in a pinch to MC, a huge energy whip with homing capacity, hmm that sure does sounds scary, ill elbaorate a small figth of MC, v samus (Btw you should become a member if you arent alreday):


a desert city of the size of NY would be the seting.


Samus VS MC.

Samus shoots a super missile and MC dodges he uses a hand gun, bullets are delfected, samus then unleashes a quick series of power beam shots, MC dodges again and tries to use the sniper rifle, bulelts are delfected once again, samus changes to the plasma beam, MC takes cover behind some ruble, and unleashes more of his arsenal, all of wich fails, samus changes to the wave bean and shoots, Mc is paralyzed, samus lauchs a screw attack, and laucnhes a ice spreader, MC is frozen solid, samus ends the figth with a supper missile, shartering MC.

Reason why MC lost:

the continiuty of the wave beam can stun for a while a pirate, in a human it would stun him for a while, samus using screw attack to cover distance can freeze MC and give a super missle, if it were using the not so broken weapons of MP2:

Samus unleashes a power beam at full charge, MC dodges, samus follows up with power beam individual shots, MC dodges again, and counters with cortana (the hacking weapon of MC), samus rejects the hacking, MC comes in for a close up attack, samus goes onto morphball unleashing a power bomb, MC is blinded, samus now lauchnes, dark hole, or sunburst or the sonic boom (ill leave to the readers the choice of which combo), Mc dies.

with the broken MP3 weapons:

Samus Enters hyper mode launchs, quickly a series of phazon barrages, Mc takes cover (phazon is a semi solid mineral, it has liquid propietis simialr to those of water, but it reamins solid in great numbers), samus luanchs the hyper grapple, Mc is now exposed to the 2nd effect of the hyper grapple, samus drains MC energy,and he dies (hyper grapple turns samus onto a metroid.)
