GT and FF franchises individually are still better than the halo franchises. Anybody who disagrees needs to wake up from ignorance. And as to the ignorant fanboy who got all offended and did not even realize i was not talking to him, well maybe you shouldn't be such a fanboy cause it has obviously blinded and cannot even see when somebody is not even talking to you or about you or anything having to do with you.
Ahaha. Are you conducting an experiment to see whether flames can still be ignited in this thread? If you are, the answer is "yes and shut up".

Feel free to ignore the following if you did not mean "better" in the sense of bigger or more important.  (But please tell me if that is the case.)

Although I think that FF games are superior to Halo games (therefore "better") they are NOT bigger, or more important to the console, etc.

FF games (main series) have sold as follows: VII-10.31, VIII-7.86, IX-5.3, X-8.22, X-2-5.21, XII-5.12 * Also remember that these games were on userbases of 100 to 120+? million and were No.s 2, 8, and 10; and No.s 7, 11, and 21, in terms of sales on the respective consoles. (Ranks taken from here, accuracy not guaranteed.)

Halo games have gone H1-6.43, H2-8.45, H3-7.13+? on userbases of 24 to 17+? and were No.s 1 and 2 with No. 3 being less than half the sales of No. 2; and No 1, respectively.

Clearly Halo is much bigger on the Xbox than Final Fantasy is on the Playstation. In terms of total sales I don't expect Halo 3 to pass 8 million but that will be higher than FFXIII ever gets to, unless you plan to count each of the Fabula Nova Crystallis games separately.

I left Gran Turismo out of this because you are correct: It is bigger than Halo.

*(Some of you may notice that these numbers are not what I had said earlier; that's because I was an idiot and looked at the wrong column (score) for FF8 and 12. The irony.)

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
