Halo is no longer that. 10 years ago it might have been second to Mario but not anymore. 

It certainly isn't the second biggest today.  But, I think it is the second biggest in history, using the criteria I mentioned.  

If we want to talk history we would have to put either Gran Turismo or Final Fantasy on that. Both have had impact greater than Halo and sold more as well.

Sure none were the sole reason to own the system as there were plenty more good on it, but impact per see they win. FF VII single handily put PS ahead of N64 and GT created sim racing basically alone and never dropped from leading sales.
