uhm..ok. Why would you compare two RPGs to shooter type games?

RPG fans are going to say yes. People who like MP shooters are going to say no.

End poll... :roll:

I agree too. But that just shows my taste in genre more than the quality of the games.

That's a high ball comparison, if you ask me - all of those games have their qualities and are great in their own right. I don't think Fable's in the league of Gears of War and Mass Effect -- it had a great concept, but it wasn't worked on well (dull story, easy). Halo's a great series, with it's own merits, but I - and it's important to notice that this is MY opinion - think that, due to its lack of emotional attachment/campaign grandeur, Halo falls behind GoW and Mass Effect.

Gears of War is still the icon of the Xbox 360 - the best exclusive title for the console. Mass Effect is just as great, but a few gameplay issues tarnished the game's perfection (and those extremely boring Mako sequences). I say this without favoritism for any of the genres (RPG, Third Person Shooter + RPG, First Person Shooter and Third Person Shooter).

You can't compare these games, they're different types therefore don't have much in common. Now I will say Mass Effect is better than Fable. Fable 2 was one of the biggest disappointments I've ever played, it wasn't very good at all.

Sorry, but Fable is no where near as good as the Mass Effect series. Especially ME2.

I know right! Why can't people enjoy every game for what it is instead of comparing? Fable and mass effect are not even in the same genre, it's like comparing a bike to a parrot...

That's it i should totally make a thread about how bikes are better than parrots... :twisted:

Outrageous! I can't think of anyone who is crazy enough to even try to put Fable close to Mass Effect, as far as quality goes. Mass Effect figures as one of the best RPGs ever made and the best Space Setting RPG.

I prefer Halo & Gears because I prefer shooter. Seriously, why would you compare two genres? RPG fans will obviously choose Fable and Mass Effect... Fail.

You basically said Hip Hop is better than Alternative Rock. You took two completely different genres and put them face to face and expect a good thread out of this? Naturally RPG fans will vote one way while Shooter fans will vote the opposite. Why don't you try comparing things that are within the same classification/genre?

I understand. It's just kind of a hard thing to compare. RPGs to shooters? It's just two completely different things to compare. I can understand Halo to Gears, or Mass Effect to Fable; but you're comparing two different genres.

Fable is hardly an RPG. Action adventure is more like it. First Fable was good, but Fable 2 was terrible. I hope Fable 3 turns out to be really good.

If someone brings over Halo I'll always jump in on some multiplayer and have fun but when it comes to plunking my money on a product, practically every genre except for visual novels and dating games (moreso beause I've never played them) takes priority over FPS. I'm a little more lax on 3PS, but barely.

I don't know how you can compare genres when the requirements for a good game are different in each...

Fable, Mass Effect and Gears of War are among my favourite games, so I couldn't really decide between them. I can't say I've ever felt compelled to play a Halo game. Something about it just doesn't appeal to me.
