I can buy one game from Best Buy. I heard that Mass Effect is an excellent game and I am really in to RPG. But, I am also into these games and I wanted to ask you what you recommend for me? Here are the games. Tell me which one is better:

1) Mass Effect.

2) Assassin's Creed.

3) Virtua Fighter 5.

4) The Orange Box.

Thanks in advance and please respond.

I own Assassin's Creed and I beat The Orange Box and I was thinking about buying Mass Effect also. You can ask me any questions about either.

If I bought the game and played it on the highest difficulty from the beginning (normal?) and did all the side quests...how long would it take me to beat the game?

Hours played depends on how you actually play RPGs. If you just shoot through the main quest in ME you'll be done in about 20 hours. If you do it all and read everything (like I do) then you'll land somewhere between 35-40 hours. I think ME was amazing and the best RPG Ive ever played and Ive played a LOT. I think its worth it but all the games in your list are great games. You really arent going to go wrong, but read the reviews, check out their boards, watch some videos and make the choice thats right for you. None of us can pick what your favorite game will be.

Was first play through for both so he can compare. Mass Effect is the better game but if I could only own one I would pick BD becuase it would last 3 times longer and is the most underappreciated rpg game on the 360 imo.
