This thread was better when we were developing a gigantic list of Sci-Fi properties to do battle against one another!

Aww, Onyx when did you switch your pic to TIM? I was actually enjoying Oghren. =(

My money would be on Zaeed. I liked Canderous and sure he's tough, but Zaeed walked away from a gun shot at point-blank ranged to the head. Canderous wouldn't stand a chance. Also Zaeed beat a Krogan in hand-to-hand combat and to the best of my knowledge Canderous has no similar claim to fame.

erm Canderous is Mandalore...leader of all Mandalorians...and he has a basilisk droid...and if i remembered corectly he plunged 80 km through the atmosphere on the back of a basilisk droid while dodging self guided projectiles and beam weapons with barely 15cm glowing hot armor plate protecting him...now that is cool...
        Zaeed has none of this achievments...

Yes he's leader of the Mandalorians but we all know how easily Boba Fett (the ultimate Mandalorian) bit the bullet.  And while riding a droid through the atmosphere of a planet dodging weapons fire is cool, it doesn't speak to any kind of physical resilience in combat.

Canderous all the way. He fights for more than just a paycheck.

No, but it is explained that Canderous does have healing implants and he's no weakling in physical combat. If Zaeed can take a bullet to the head, I think Canderous could manage.

Edit: And Boba Fett is hardly the ultimate Mandalorian. By the time of the movies, the Mandalorians have been completely reduced to guns for hire. He's a damn good killer, but he's still not on par with what others have done.

I changed it in the middle of the priiiize thread and after the whole "ME 2 as an RPG is disappointing" thread debacle. This avatar seems more appropriate right now.

[KendallX23]

well i was just saying Zaeed would not be able to do what Candeorus did..plus it was just an example..he did far more then this...maybe hand to hand he is not that proficient but he can do a lot of damage with a gun

If you're referring to the fiasco at the Sarlacc pit, Boba did escape alive from that.

Fair enough. TIM is a bamf one way or another.

Yeah I've grown complacent in that many people I know weren't even aware there were 3 movies made before the prequels (I wish I was kidding).

Boba Fett was a pussy. Barely deserves to call himself a Mandalorian. The Sarlaac did him a favor.

Anyone who never found Canderous useful never made him a melee character. Particularly if you give him those HAX Rakatan
vibroswords, he totally ruined the final dungeon. He has much higher STR than DEX, I have no idea why he starts with a gun. Ranged is utterly terrible in KOTOR1, notably improved in KOTOR2.

YOUR AN OVERRATED GAME !!!!

[Onyx Jaguar]

I found Canderous useful and he was one of my favorite characters. But as a person I would not want to be around him.

[BaladasDemnevanni]

Pfft, I rolled with Bastila and Jolee. That old man just never gets old.

No one else respond to this guy... dude if you don't care why did you join thread?

He's been trolling the thread since the beginning.  Jut check his posts above. 

Tough choice, but I'd have to say Canderous just because he has more dialogue and is a Mandalorian.

[Bucky_McLachlan]

Wrex is totally the Canderous Ordo of the Mass Effect Universe. Down to him reuniting the Mandalorian Krogan clans.

Boba Fett is the last Mandalorian, but the hell is he the ultimate. He's a washed up remnant who's long forgotten what his people once were.

[PaladinXelezar]

Man this thread took off like crazy!!!

[Mystik]

Canderous was the man, he wasn't just some crap merc that didn't care about nothing but petty revenge like Zaeed. Canderous had a deep respect and loyalty for Revan and I would of considered him a friend but Zaeed, I couldn't care less whether he joined us or not really. he's just some grumpy old guy.

A grumpy old guy who survived a bullet to the head.  Zaeed beat death through sheer force of will, no implants, even Shepard hasn't pulled that off.
However if we factor in Canderous' regenerative implants this is starting to look like a battle of the immortals, both fighting until exhaustion causes them to pass out and then they wake up and start fighting again.

So we have a hardcore game of "Say Uncle" ending only when one or both of them get tired of it or one of them finally dies of old age.  Anyone know the life span of a Mandalorian?

Yeah but that was in squad combat. I think Mandalore makes for a better leader than Zaeed, but I think Zaeed would make for a better fighter.

Granted Star Wars has more hand to hand combat.

also very true... But if were going to say squad than its no comparison... Sure The Normandy crew would probably help Zaeed but Canderous has the Entire Mandalorian Army at his back.

Well, it's a known fact that Star Wars, when it comes to ship to ship battles, beats everything.

This.
