You're all forgetting about sir Issac Newton, the deadliest son of a bitch in space.

Sir Issac Newton would win hands down in a fight?  Is Dr. Freeman the deadliest son-of-a-bitch in space?  I think not.

More like the deadliest son-of-a-bitch in the multiverse. You forget: Dr. Freeman does science so hard it opens rifts to other dimensions. After which he goes into those other dimensions and murders every alien he comes across, makes a deal with the G-Man which essentially renders him immortal, then comes back through to kill even more aliens with a crowbar.

question: does gordon freeman see isaac newton as one of the forfathers of modern science? and in that sense, would he regret killing him were they to do battle?

Depends on what stage Isaac Newton is in his life. Young Isaac newton was pretty awesome, but old isaac newton I understand was a crazy mystic. Apparently he spent years studying really weird occult stuff.

Of course, Isaac Newton was an ass at all stages of his life, so it might just anger the Gordon. Since Gordon's actions are on par with the desires of a highly skilled teenager, I think he would slaughter Isaac Newton like Smog would slaughter Puff the Magic Dragon.

Oh, and there would be a similar case fighting Isaac Clarke from Dead Space. Gordon is a machine, Isaac is continuously on the brink of a nervous breakdown.

Tesla takes it.
^^^^^^^^^ This.

Nikola Tesla, the only reputable scientist to have actually worked on "building a death ray". For great justice.

And he even comes with his own archenemy, Thomas Edison.

I say Gordon Freeman has his ass handed to him by physics, then Isaac N. has a heart attack, then Tesla walks up holding a Heart Attack Ray, and then Teddy Roosevelt walks in and beats him to death with a paper napkin.

In my sleep-deprived state, I read that as "Teddy Flourescent". Which is the awesomest pimp-name known to man. Or porn name. It's multifunctional.

Yes but don't forget that Gordon needs a suit to kick butt... He can't even hold up conversations without it... or with it...

Hmmm

so true, in times of peace gordon is screwed. he won't be able to fit into society very well. he's doomed to walk the earth searching for ever greater challenges, testing the limits of his badassness.

so I guess the real question here is not who vs who, but who can ever even hope to reach the level of awesome Gordon Freeman does?
