Round 2! Max Payne vs. Sub Zero

Well it's impossible to know what the gravity will do to affect the bullets. Max Payne has his hands full though because sub zero is so much faster but he is still human (not sure) so he will die sooner or later.

Max is toast. Sub-Zero(with mask) has his sliding power as well as Ice Clone. If bullets worked, they would simply hit the Ice Clone or Sub-Zero could slide under them and towards Payne. Payne at close quarters combat would be history. SZ freezes his gun and then rips his head off.

There are little options for poor Max.

For one thing, a close range combat would not be anything Max would even attempt. His main weapon arsenal is guns and bullet time, so why would he even bother getting wtihin 30 feet or so of Sub Zero?

This certainly isn't going to be some easy victory for anyone, and certainly a few shot bullets from Max won't cut it this time, but rather this battle will be one of maneuverability, precisely timed attacks, and planned out movements. If Max can use his movements, bullet time, and shooting capabilities to his advantage he definitely stands a chance, but it won't be easy. Sub Zero has much to his disposal and his reflexes are certainly on his side in this battle. It will certainly be a good battle.

Sub-Zero does not only need close-range combat. Vertical ice blast, and Polar Blast can both be used at long distances. And, Ice Clone could be used to take the bullets. While Sub dodges, Max will run out of ammo. In that split second, he's dead. One of the following attacks can get him. He's frozen for a few seconds...


FATALITY!

That awesome one where he lifts Max over his head while frozen and snaps him in half. OH HELL YEAH!

Commentary: This would be a close battle, and whoever lands the first blow would decidedly win the match. However, as Max is neither slow nor stupid, he would most certainly bring the Payne. It is highly unlikely that Max would spend his time firing at an ice clone, and his superior horizontal rolling and diving stunts give him the perfect repertoire to dodge any vertical ice attacks Sub Zero might employ. Ammo depletion is also a non-issue, as Max can fully reload weapons in bullet time while the world is at a standstill around him. All Max has to do is initiate a bullet-time dive, and snipe the meatbag while he is rendered severely slowed and helpless to end this match. Decisive victory to the gun toting hardass cop from NYC. The sun will go down with practiced bravado indeed.

Good arguements... Better than any other.. Sorry Titus.

A) Ice Clone would be used multiple times, like a shield.

B) Polar Blast is not a solid wave of ice that Max can dodge. It surrounds all enemies and freezes them. No fancy footwork or showing down the battle speed won't save him from being frozen.

C) Super Slide is another power that S-Z could use. In seconds he could be tearing Payne apart.

SZ doesn't have any attacks that automatically hit, threfore Max would not automatically get hit with Polar Blast.. Anyway, he would be so busy creating multiple Ice Clones to block the barrage of bullets flying toward him that he wouldn't be able to perform any other attack. SZ only chance is for a close combat fight, and no silly looking slide attack would ever land..
