Halo is the Best Video Game Series Of All Time

[Shawn Zipay]

Earlier today, Guinness announced the top 50 videogame series of all time. Since the first position was already given away in the title, Halo, it should be noted that this list was based on public voting. Over 13,000 votes were tallied from readers and yes, the Chief in green came out on top. Moreso, Halo is, according to Guinness, the "best selling first-person shooter franchise ever."

What are the other 49 games that round out this list? Let's take a look, shall we? Numbers 14 and 16 look awfully familiar...
