We are determined that before the sun sets on this terrible struggle our flag will be recognized throughout the world as a symbol of freedom on the one hand and of overwhelming force on the other.

I like how everyone is simply throwing the Concept of A. The CSO-class Supercarrier, and B. The Forerunner Fortress Ships out of the window. The CSO-class alone is way larger than any ship in the Star Wars universe, excluding space stations.

God, you kids are idiots. Halo would destroy Star Wars, no faction in star wars can create like the Precursors, build like the Forerunners, destroy like the Flood, consume like the Covenant, and think like the UNSC.

Well it would be close if your considering everything from the halo universe against the star wars universe. I would say that halo would be the winner. Sure star wars ships are huge with massive firepower, and then there's the Jedi. However halo has the flood not only that but if your talking about everything in the halo universe even if its dead there's the forerunners and precursors.


And Star wars has it's own range of extinct super-power races.

The CSO's size wouldn't save it from the power of the Star Wars guns.

And frankly I toss out forerunners and precursors alike because nobody can honestly say the full extent of their tech and or abilities. Thus you have people saying "Oh, they can use slipspace to redirect the death star blast into a planet." 'proof?' "My head!"

You also seem to lack knowledge of Star Wars. The empire took over and controlled an entire galaxy, the rebels, using fewer numbers managed to do hit and run strikes that eventually toppled the empire, and ancient races have done tech wonders. (Star Forge anybody? Or the centerpoint station which can move entire systems with it's TRACTOR beams.)

Welcome to bungie, you have no rights. play nice!
CLICK!

The forerunners also can draw stuff from stars... They build ships really fast.

Forerunners can move stuff too.

Using logic, what happens if you open a slipspace rupture? It goes in, so pretty much open one! The foreruners have used them as weapons before... It's just logic I'm going by.

Halo Ring VS Death Star
Pillar of Autumn VS The Executioner
Spartans VS Clone Troopers
Energy Sword VS Lightsaber
Banshee VS X-Wing
DMR VS E-11 Blaster Rifle
And the list goes on and on. . .

The Forerunner Fortress ship, being 100k km long, is probably covered with enough weaponry to take on a flotilla of Executor-class Super Star Destroyers or a flotilla of Subjugator-class Heavy Cruisers, with ease.

There is no way a bunch of ships firing inaccurate lasers could take out ships with shielding and sheer mass like those in the Halo universe.

And the flood? The flood would decimate the Star Wars universe, the outer rim would probably be 90% infected in 1-2 year(s).

Again, Star Wars has never seen battles the size that the Halo universe has, the Halo universe commonly has 500-700+ ships engaging each other, like at Reach. When the Rebel scum fought over Endor with probably 30 capital ships.

Um, the battle over Coruscant in the clones wars featured 1000+ cruisers(Not counting frigates, (1000+ destroyers for the CIS) destroyers, etc), and that was a SINGLE subfleet of the Open Circle Fleet vs Grievous's fleet. So, the republic forces were 1000+ Venators (the reinforcement fleet + a few from the defense fleet) PLUS all the uncounted support ships, frigates, destroyers, fightercraft, etc.

Inaccurate lasers? Where do you get this from? You mean anti-capital ship heavy turbolasers not hitting fightercraft?

And the flood would be easy to contain, interdictor cruisers.

I think you got your numbers mixed up there. Halo typically has battles with the UNSC/Covenant each having 30ish ships. Star Wars, on the other hand, often features much larger ship battles.

Oh, and this bit of information In the closing days of the Clone Wars, a vanguard of the Fifth Fleet raced home from the Outer Rim Sieges to defend Coruscant from the Separatist's surprise attack.

Several thousand of these returning ships were Venator-class Star Destroyers.

This whole thing about the Flood is like Rock, Paper, Scissors.

Rock(Empire) Paper(Forerunner) Scissors(Flood)

Empire beats Flood, but loses to Forerunner.
Flood beats Forerunner, but loses to Empire.

The movies never displayed massive battles, the Clone wars dwarfs the Human Covenant war, losing quintillions of casualties, while the Human Covenant war was merely in the billions.

If I recall the Yuzhang vong war had more casualities than the clone wars and it wasn't in the quintilions.

Halo Primordium will talk about the priomordial and the flood so we'll probably see why the forerunners lost.

Source? The Confederacy had droids in the quintillions and lost every single droid if that includes Anakins act of disabling them after killing the viceroy.

Droids =/= values sentient life. They don't take much to kill either.

Chief could plow through 50 of them in a few seconds.

Finish the Fight!

I've just had a lot more good memories with Halo then with Star Wars. I LOVED Star Wars as a kid but they were just movies. And movies can only do so much.

  • 11.05.2011 11:08 PM PDT

Wow... there is a lot of fail on both sides of the argument here. Comparing Spartan IIs to regular Clone Troopers... *sigh*. If I were to just go off of base instinct of who would win or lose, Star Wars would win because its an entire Universe of collective races against very few of the Halo Universes.

Actually they would gut Chief in a few seconds. The B1 Battle droids would probably use the E-5 blaster rifle which is basically a brute shot in terms of damage without the area of effect. A few shots would kill Chief, and since there are 50, they would definitely get a few shots on him. Chief wouldn't be able to down one considering the armor they have.

They still count as casualties since they fight for a cause.

Can someone calculate the power needed to take down the shields + do a number on the destroyer that Linda, Fred and Will were on?

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

The Flood, UNSC, and Covenant working together would crush Star Wars. And I'm pretty much unbiased, as I now hate Halo and find Star Wars to be idiotic. Think about it, the Covenant's weapons, the UNSC's soldiers, and the Flood's power. Imagine Elites with MJOLNIR and Spartan augmentations working together with the Flood and the hundreds of Spartan IIs and IIIs. Debt is no longer an issue for the UNSC, and they have access to the Covenant's technology. Spartan IVs would be possible with the massive amount of resources the Covenant have.

The Halo series was my first and favorite FPS series.
I enjoy most games throughout all systems despite what some people say.

Oh, and on the forums, I tell it like it is, like it or not.

BWUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

How would the Empire beat the Flood if the Forerunners couldn't? And don't say they did, because some of it survived, and they had to use mass suicide tactics to even halt the Flood's progress/

I'm sorry, the Covenant fleet is nothing compared to even the republic. The Fifth fleet of the open circle fleet contained THOUSANDS of ships. It's described as "Several thousand of the ships returning to defend Coruscant were Venator class star destroyers."

They vastly outnumber Halo, and their tech is more powerful.

And for the flood... You can't really bring them into the galaxy with an army without sacrificing the UNSC or Covenant. That and if they infected a planet Star Wars can effectively glass it within hours, and make it impossible to do a hyperspace jump.

A: Empire treats flood as a threat early on. Forerunners never did.
B: Unlike the forerunners, the Empire can prevent any ships from leaving a system. So if the flood infected a planet, they could glass it within hours, and interdictors would prevent any captured ships from leaving the system.

With the combined space forces of the Forerunners, Covenant, and UNSC, the Republic/Empire would be unable to focus fully on the Flood, as they'd have their hands full with the Forerunners constantly blowing up solar systems and the UNSC and Covenant nuking and glassing planets. May I remind you all of the NOVA bomb?
