User blog comment:Legionwrex/Shepard vs Samus/@comment-3228423-20110829041404

In my opinion, trying to see whether or not Samus is better than Shepard is like trying to see whether or not cake is better than pie; it's more or less impossible. They both have their strengths and weaknesses as well as tech that's practically at the opposite ends of the scifi weapon spectrum.

However, if I must choose, based on the limits of kinetic barriers and the accomplishments Samus has done, I have to go with her.
