In our continuing effort to bring you fresh and interesting content, X3F presents Would You Rather ... a weekly feature that asks you the hard questions. The point? If you had to choose one or the other, which would you go for?
In week two of WUR we ask you to decide between a true sequel to Halo in the form of Halo 4 or a Halo first-person massively multiplayer online title. So, putting the Halo storyline aside, we want to know:
Feel free to share the reasons for your vote in the comments. We'll share the results of the poll during the next edition of Would You Rather ... which hits X3F every Wednesday.
Last weeks surprising results can be find after the jump ... Engage!
In a stunningly close race the X3F army has spoken and you decided you'd want Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots to get the Xbox 360 port-treatment rather than have the Mass Effect trilogy remain an Xbox 360 console exclusive. The arguments and points were both interesting and heated and we encourage you to discuss this week's WUR in the comments below!

I think I would rather be Master Chief in Halo 4. I'm not sure a MMO would appeal to me. I just want to frag.

I still want halo4 to come out, but I voted Halo MMO, this series has, up to now , had only straight sequels. I want to see more types of games that take part in thi halo universe. Im sure Bungie will still get a say in the projects and that will almost assure quality games.
next would you rather ... Shadowrun ????

I would rather play a single player Halo 4 game because I just don't have time to play online games these days what with the 17 month old twins and all.

A Halo MMO would fail because it's not WoW. That's it. Don't waste the time making a crappy MMO when you have a guaranteed hit by making H4.

if they made the monthly payment of this MMO at $0, i would vote for it. I'd rather participate in an engaging story then frag n00bs.

The only thing that's kept me away from MMO's is the subscription fee. I refuse to play anything that requires a subscription.
Subscriptions are a trap. You pay for the time whether you're playing or not and if you're paying then you may as well be playing then you're stuck playing a game even when you really don't want to just because you're paying for it then if a bunch of your friends bail on it or you just get bored you stop and cancel your subscription then later if you get the urge to play it for a weekend you have to re-subscribe for a period of time just to get a day or two of game time in.
For it to be worth the money you have to play it all the time. I'd rather not play them at all then go through all that.

Halo, Halo2, and Halo3 have all been brilliant games, and I feel that a new Trilogy could easily be made continuing on from the ending of Halo 3.
Alternatively a pre-quel could be made in which you play as the Master Chief, but set around the fall of Reach and the destruction of the Spartans, up until the point the chief is put in stasis on the Autumn in Halo opening FMV.
Whereas a MMO would be tedious.

I like to think the Marvel Universe MMO died due to them realizing that 100,000 Spider-Men wouldn't work out well. Same for any Main Character in any other MMO...

I think Bungie foreshadowed the next part of the Halo story in the opening sequence of H3. Cortana talking about selecting John as her Master Chief and all that. It's gonna a prequel. Personally i think they should branch off entirely and do something on the non-human side. I think they should come up with a Halo Jr. thing for the kids. A 3rd person platformy thing where you play as a grunt. Or Lego Halo. That'd be the jam.

Much as I don't like Halo anyway, at least in Halo 4 there would be a greater semblance of a plot. I can't stand online games, either.

I think Master Chief is kind of a dumb character, no offense to anyone but I'd rather play as my own custom made Spartan.

Then.....you kind of don't know the Chief, or much about Spartans for that. Spartans are not interesting characters personailty-wise at all, MMO with everyone as a spartan would sux.
