Depends what you like. If you're more of an FPS/multiplayer type person, Halo 4 is probably what you want.

If you enjoy RPGs with story, interesting characters, and seeing how your choices affect the game then Mass Effect 3 is what you want.

Although honestly, they are two completely different games that you can't really compare. And if you do get Mass Effect 3, if you haven't already make sure you play the previous two games of the series.

Well like the previous person mentioned, they are completely different games. RPG vs. a FPS... if you are rambunctious and impatient you will probobly get bored of Mass Effect 3 or wont be able to sit through it. Even though personally if I was forced to choose between Halo and Mass Effect I would choose ME in a heart beat. But also, Halo 4 doesn't even come out until this fall. Mass Effect 3 is already out, thats a good 4-5 months before Halo 4 will release. But if you do wanna get ME, definately get 1 and 2 and play them before you march into 3.

Halo 4 is not out yet. 343 Studios is currently developing it. Mass Effect 3 just cam out 4 days ago. Mass Effect series to me is the best franchise on the Xbox 360, Then Gears of War, then Halo (All of them). I would play both. Make sure if you choose Mass Effect to play the previous two games first.

You should really start the fight one more time. But, because the long wait of nearly 6+ months you should march into battle.

But is ME3 really an RPG? I think the difference at this point is that Halo is a FPS and Mass Effect is a TPS. Star Wars: The Old Republic is an RPG

I dont see why you should have to pick one why not play both especially since ME3 is out not and Halo 4 wont be out until the end of the year.

I would take up both since they are both amazing game series but it really depends what kind of games you are into.

As far as todays standards go ME3 IS an RPG, about 13 years ago Final Fantasy 7 was an RPG, and 10 years before that, table top Dungeons and Dragons was the rpg. The term is loosely applied to whatever game developers decide needs the title to make more money i suppose.

Halo 4 is coming out towards the end of the year. It's going to be released for the holiday season. Mass Effect came out recently, so you should play Mass Effect 3 now, and finish the fight around the holiday season.

Play Halo. Mass Effect (or as I like to call it, Ass Effect) isn't that great. Play Gears of War over Mass Effect!

The term "RPG" really needs to be thrown out. I'll admit Mass Effect 3 is very similar to a TPS, but I do still think it's an RPG. I guess I'd call it an RPG with TPS elements.

FPS - Halo

Third Person Shooter with a heck of a lot of RPG elements - Mass Effect.

First of all, let me recommend that if you haven't done so already, play through both series of games entirely. You don't just want to pick up ME3 or Halo 4 and just play them.

For Halo, start with Halo: Combat Evolved. You also have Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo: Reach.

For Mass Effect, you have 1, 2, and 3.

I think Mass Effect definitely has the better and deeper storyline, and it's more epic.

I couldn't say either one is better. They are both great but very different. So you should play both of them!!!!
