Well, I'm not so sure about that. Like said above MC is still part human. Besides, like I said before, you have to be one serious bad--- to jump from a space station, with a giant bomb, towards an enemy capital ship, detonate the bomb, and fall a few miles landing on a friendly cruiser...
Anyway, on the who would win topic, I'm still gonna side with MC. Samus was infused with Chozo DNA. She never completed her military training and learned most of how to fight from experiance (while relying on the suit).
MC was Genetically altered and cybernetically advanced and trained from age 6 to... however old he is now... He is an incredibly capeable soldier on his own, plus he has his Mark V or Mark VI suit (depending on which Halo you're going by). He is also suppoed to be a brilliant tactition and leader of the Spartans according to the book.
Either way, the Mark V and VI suits have shields that repel incoming enemy fire. Plus an underlayer which is specially made for resisting plasma weapons.
Samus's suit has a built in arm cannon. Other than those 2 points the suits are quite similar. (as far as benefits, I know someone's gonna try to be a wise--- about that comment)
So why do I say MC? I think that in a medium-long range battle, Master Chief has the advantage. Longer training, plus similar ammounts of real battle experiance, plus the fact that samus only has her armor to preotect her while Master Chief has recharging shields means that staying away is very bad news for Samus. Also jumping, especially at that range, only makes you an easy target, especially Samus who can jump very high. Jumping put's you in a set patern of motion until you land, and neither of them, especially MC would miss that kind of oppertunity.
Close range, (but not melee, MC would kick her pretty little butt in hand to hand) is where Samus can really take advantage of higher mobility and maybe even jumping. Since Samus can move around much more freely than the Master Chief in his 1000lbs Mark suit, this range would give her the freedom to quickly move around him and dodge fire a little easier.
That's 3 area's where I think MC would win and 1 where Samus can, that is why I feel that Master Chief is superior.
