No, you don't. Halo (released 2001) is a FPS console game that failed in comparison with the best FPS on a PC made at that point, Half Life (released 1998). The only people that think Halo is a top 10 game of all time are ones that started off on consoles. I have yet to meet anyone that picks Halo on an XBox over some of the FPS of that day from a PC. Halo may have been a great and fun game on the XBox, but it did not compare to other computer games.
you forgot the IN YOUR OPINION part
FWIW halo IMO is a more enjoyable game and series then HL
Here is another issue with Halo from a quick jump to metacritic:
XBox version with a 97 and a user rating of 8.1
PC version with a 83 and a user rating of 6.4
The pc version lacked apparently. I played the pc version more than the XBox. Then again this was the XBox game to have and everyone had it and thinks it is the greatest just like Nintendo fans love Mario.
I read a review and this one hit the differences pretty well.
It is enjoyable on a console but the pc games out then were better. Half Life 1 single player was fantastic and their multiplayer was great along with Counter Strike which was a mod.
I played Halo and as fun as it was, it just did not have the appeal Half Life did. I have not seen anyone that started out with FPS pc games to include Halo into a top 10. Joph may be the first one I have seen to include a Halo game if they started out on pc games. Halo 2 was his pick though, which was a good game as well.

and he forgot we're in the CONSOLE forum
So if someone wanted to start a thread about your favorite games of all time, and include not just console or PC but both, they don't have a place to post that thread? Would they have to make an elaborate cross-post in both forums?
no but he was surprised about why the #1 FPS CONSOLE franchise was not on any lists in a thread about top 10 games in the CONSOLE forum and then some PC fanboy had to try and break it down to him, in false terms as well, talking about it failing.
Given the prevalence of PC games in the lists posted in this thread, I'd say he isn't too far off base, at least in terms of the original Halo not standing out to people that have played a lot of PC FPS's. Hell, I've never even really played Halo 1 or 2.
