We’re gonna try something different for Nerds on the Rocks 30 since the podcast is centered around various fictional match-ups, we thought we would extend our audience a chance on voting/commenting on these match-ups before the podcast goes live on Friday.

Each day we will highlight several of the match-ups discussed on the podcast and leave it here for listeners to vote on. Let’s get to the big board for our Day 1 match-ups.

Solid Snake vs Sam Fisher

• Solid Snake the star of the Metal Gear/ Solid franchise is no stranger to danger, and a master of the stealth game. The man is a warrior through and through and as proven in MGS 4 will continue fighting even in his old age.
• Sam Fisher the star of the Splinter Cell franchise is a man who loves to live in the shadows. A master of stealth and the fire-arms, Sam is a man possessed. Master of hand to hand and weapon combat.

• Captain Falcon, the most prominent racer from the F-Zero franchise and a star fighter in the Super Smash Bros series, drives the Blue Falcon vehicle. He is a capable fighter who has mastered the Falcon Punch and Falcon Kick!

   Solid Snake because he’s a badass.
   Captain Falcon because I don’t really know much about the other show.

   Captain Falcon Falcon Punches the center of the Earth destroying the universe through a massive shockwave. He then drives the Blue Falcon so fast that it restarts the universe except now Speed Racer is transformed into a seaslug. He keeps Slug Racer in a jar and enters him in seaslug races. Of course he loses and as punishment is turned into seaslug stew. Captain Falcon then decides to start his own cooking show. A Snarklakian Goose gets loose before a poultry segment and kills audience members Sam Fisher and Solid Snake with its barbed foot long eyelashes.

   So yeah, Captain Falcon.
