Solid Snake vs Sam Fisher
Why the fight?
Simply put, they're both getting on in years, they're both sneaky fellas, and they've just been itching to have a go at one another for years now. It's time to find out who the better agent is.
Vital Statistics:
Solid SnakeHeight: 6ft
Weight:198lbs
Training: Expertly trained elite soldier, proficient in close quarters combat and trained in the use of multiple kinds of light and heavy weaponry including high yield explosives. Special training includes Green Beret, FOXHOUND and CIA training.
Misc: His real name is David, last name is unknown but aliases include "Iroquois Pliskin" and "Old Snake". With an IQ of 180 and the ability to speak six different languages, Snake's about as sharp as they come. Of Japanese and British descent, Snake is a clone currently suffering the effects of advanced cellular degradation borne of the "Les Enfants Terrible" genetic experiment, which was intended to create the perfect soldier by cloning the remains of the greatest soldier in history, "Big Boss." Currently a member of the global anti-Metal Gear group known as Philanthropy, Snake was exposed to the FOXDIE virus during the Shadow Moses Incident.
Upcoming games: Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Vital Statistics:
Sam FisherHeight: 5ft 10 inches
Weight:170lbs
Training: Advanced weapons training, NSA (Third Echelon) training, CIA training, HAHO (High Altitude High Opening) HALO (High Altitude, Low Opening) insertion training and Navy SEAL Team 3 special training.
Misc: His full name is Samuel Leo Fisher, but officially Sam Fisher is a ghost and does not exist. The first recruited member of the NSA's Third Echelon group, Sam is adept at stealth and subterfuge, highly athletic and agile, he is an expert at breaking through defenses and executing a target with lethal efficiency. Much like Solid Snake, Sam was born and bred on the battlefield, having served in Afghanistan, Korea and Kuwait, and like Snake he is now alone in the world, as both his ex-wife and daughter are dead.
Upcoming games: Splinter Cell: Double Agent
The Outcome:
Snake's got the reach, he's also got the agility, Sam's a sneaky guy and some would argue he's got more moves than Snake does, he would also appear to be in better health than Snake presently, but his apparently unstable psychological condition negates this advantage. When it comes down to it, Solid Snake is faster, smarter and stronger than Sam Fisher. Sam is more than capable of tackling one or two opponents at a time and he can be a cold blooded killer, but once things start getting really ugly he usually can't handle the heat. Snake has taken down tanks, helicopters, and even a cybernetic Ninja, I think that guarantees a win. As a result Snake wins.

As for Auron vs Sephiroth, There are too many Sephiroth fanboys out there, It's an unfair battle. My Vote goes to Auron, he's damn cool, He's had his problems and even kept on fighting and kept hios cool throughout the game.

That Cloud vs Link is going to be good. Of course once again Cloud will destroy Link on cool factor alone but you can never leave out a man in tights.

Hideo Kojima's games are really a work of art, although I think he has some eccentric tendancies, it's still one of the better games out there next to Mario and all the other greats. Something tells me all those noobs out there haven't played any of the series fully enough to understand it, or they could just be little kids who can't take a bit of thinking and go nutso.
Splinter Cell is better because of the Somewhat polished realism, and Metal Gear is better due to the storytelling and wide range of gameplay options, though not as much as Splinter Cell's, it is still very very good.

A prime minister singing Elvis?
However, in all fairness it is truly refreshing to see things having no qualms about absurdity.
The world needs more silliness. Which is what makes it both sad and funny when I cast my vote for Sam Fisher. A game made by Canadians about an American agent pursuing American interests.
Which begs the question: when are the Japanese gonna make a game about Paul Bunyon on a drunken rampage in a hockey rink?

All Sam has that Snake probably dosn't is his hide in the shadows thing. But all in all Snake is a better soldier.
Also what Johantheolive said.

i can't conceivably see anyone ever beating cloud in a fight... he'd just go omnislash and own them.
personally i like this kind of article, it makes me think and it's fun to see what people come up with.

Pyramid Head (SH2) would kill them all... and then have necro-masochistic sex with their bodies...
Except for maybe Sephiroth...

Oh and another suggestion for a vs. post would be Kojima vs. Clancy.
I know it's for games but think it would be a good fight to have. Although I think it's obvious where my vote would go HE!

all he has to do is program the foxdie in snake to attack sams genes. then its all over. snake will kill him without even haveing to lift a finger. simple. GOOD OLD FOX DIE!!!
one more thing im still waiting for sam fishy to beat a nuclear walking stealth tank with a rail gun

Why?
1. Snake + Foxdie = Sam dies.
2. Sam hides in shadow + Big green eye = Sam dies.
3. Sam is gay.
4. Snake is cool.
5. I have and Xbox. I play SC. Sam is gay.
6. I've played all MGS. Snake is da man. Sam is gay.
7. Did I say Sam is gay? Lol.
8. No.83 --> Lol... Big green eye... HAHAHHAHAHA

also, the Samus vs Master Chief is so cliche it's ridiculous. Samus deserves better competition than the Master Chief.
Ratchet vs Fox is kind of interesting.
there should be Solid Snake (circa MGS2 or MGS3) vs Batman. now *that'd* be a kickass battle. i'm still torn on who would win that one. ultimately, i think maybe Batman would, but then again, Snake wouldn't hesitate about pulling the trigger or snapping Bat's neck, whereas Batman would refuse to finish Snake off.
anyway, Snake would kick Sam's ass. i mean, he is a clone of the "greatest soldier in history." it's in his genes to be badass. and to also die of accelerated aging due to his cloning. oh, the irony.

don't forget the misleading trailer for MGS2, where you saw Solid Snake running around the Big Shell base shooting things and people, and it turned out that you were playing as Raiden through those areas. Kojima is very good at leading the masses to think one thing, then slapping them across the face with another. the guy putting the gun in his mouth in MGS4 may not be Snake in the actual game. also ignore the lines about wiping his genes off of the face of the earth. you know how movie trailers will have dialogue playing over a scene in the trailer, but the same scene in the movie will have different dialogue, completely unrelated? i think we're seeing the same thing here.
we do know that Snake is going to die (perhaps), but not necessarily at the end of MGS4. who knows, there may be a way to stop his accelerated aging, or at least stablize his genes so they won't deteriorate anymore.
it should also be noted, that Hideo Kojima has said that even though Snake looks like pushing 70, he's still only a 40 year old man. so far, the deterioration hasn't affected his muscles yet (just his lungs, but that could be from his chronic smoking). so physically, i think that Snake is on par with Sam, whether it be Snake from MGS2, Big Boss Snake from MGS3, or Old Snake from MGS4.
also, thanks to some of the Sam Fisher fans giving their thoughts on why he would win the fight. i don't like the Splinter Cell games at all (too slow and boring for me), but some of you guys have been very fair and inciteful as to your reasonings, and not the standard "Sam powns everything!!! Snake suckorrzz!!!11" i don't really know much about Sam, so i just defaulted to Snake, but after reading some of you guy's arguments, i think the fight would be very very good, though i do still think Snake would come out on top. or they'd just go out for a beer together and swap war stories.

Hideo Kojima has stated that the character designs for Solid Snake and Big Boss were based on Snake Plissken. In MGS2, the name Iroquois Pliskin is a reference to Snake Plisskin, and in MGS3, Solid Snake (who later assumes the alias Big Boss) has an eyepatch, much like Snake Plisskin.
If you haven't seen either of those movies, I would recommend them.

Um...QJ stands for quick journal...wow...and you are staff. Go to qj.net and look at the title bar dude....seriously! And if you truly think Joystiq and Engadget don't use the phrase "after the jump" then you don't visit those sites....ever....oh, except to get the 50% of your news posts that you simply scrape from their site (not you specifically, just this site in general).
Don't get me wrong...I love this site and I will continue to visit it multiple times daily until it fails to provide me with any information...but really, get with the program on a few little things and you could be soooooo much better!
