Force obviously.

Matrix powers are limited and sucky.

When in despair I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won; there have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall.- Mahatma Gandhi

If having Matrix "forces" includes having racks and racks of guns/weapons appear, then yeah, i'm all for Matrix forces ;)

Matrix powers (assuming ala Neo)

Reasons: You can manipulate ANYTHING connected with the matrix to suit your needs. (See end of Matriz 1 where Neo "recodes" Agent Smith. though it had... eh flaws... Also see the Marovingian (sp?) and The Cake™ :D)

Also, the cool guns you can program into the Matrix. the crash courses of martial arts or any other thing you want to know. Flying almost beyond the speed of sound (or so it seemed).

And of course; The Slow Motion action!!!

Your puny Force powers are nothing... I mean Push? WTF? SMASH! Pull? WTF? SMASH! SHOOT! Mindtrick? WTF? RECODE!

the force only becase I would only be able to use matrix powers in the matrix, if we were talking matrix powers in reality that would be a diferent story (but then again wha is reality?)

Okay, this is one George Lucas never though of.

Just think!  It would be cool!

The little, short, furry dude would be like:" Aaaeeeeyaaa!"
The bad guy would be like:"What?  Ha Ha Ha!"
and little, short, furry dude would be like:"Aaaeeeeyaaa!"
Fshhhmmmmmm!

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Choice...the problem is choice.
Well ok here are the things I can do in the matrix:
Do the superman thing ;7 ;7
Jump as high as I want
Dodge bullets
Stop bullets
Pull things (like Neo pulled those little swords in the Chateau) Ha Force pull owned! :p
Have an amazing strength and speed
Connect to everyone who is plugged into the matrix and change their code the way I want to
Run on walls (you can do that with force too)
Run UP walls (like in Jk3) and you can do that with force too
Make copies of me ;7 ;7 ;7
Wear cool shades (ha Jedi are suckers for cool looks)
Bring back people to life (force can't do that)
AND downloadany skill I want to learn. ;7 (Ha owns Jedi big time)

Ok force things you can do
Mindtrick (a little programming always does the job)
Pull (can be done in the matrix)
Lightning (can be programmed)
Grip (why use it when I can manipulate the code)
Protect (no need because if i am fast and can stop and dodge things i don't need it)
Absorb (who needs it :p)
Rage (nah....:p)
Speed (nah...I am allready too fast in the matrix)
Jump (allready can do it in the matrix but higher and longer)


So Matrix all the way :D

matrix, for sure.

i mean, you could change your look and style by thinking, you can lag any other user, you can get any ability you like, and you have limitless supplys of Guns&Ammo. not to mention the fact you can play the coolest multiplayer games in that loader program.
