Neither are platforms on which you can really develop games. You should look ideally at Flash or Silverlight.

Other than that, I would suggest using WebForms as you will have the advantage of ViewState to play with and a pseudo-event-driven engine. MVC might be a little more hard work but if you're confortable with native web development you may prefer it.

Flash is one of the most established platforms for creating web games and I'll advice you to use it for almost any kind of game. If you are familiar with the .net technology stack you can try Silverlight. It is also very powerful and also support some good 3D features. If you are in a mood for exploring try the html 5 + JavaScript but be aware that it is not fully supported by all browsers. A good article for game development with JS and html 5 is http://www.brighthub.com/internet/web-development/articles/38364.aspx . The only type of games I thing asp.net and MVC are suitable for is the turn based (text based) online strategies like Utopia and Dominion. In that case I'll strongly suggest ASP.NET MVC framework as it has a lot of capabilities that you'll find useful.
