Because it's good. If you don't like it that's cool, but many people do.

Here's a website on the Internet you can go to and read about some of the game's features:

http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/halo3/review.html

I don't really feel like explaining what makes the game great to you.

I think of it as an awesome game that I can always slink back to when I don't feel like playing any of my other games. ^_^;; Which isn't right now cause I'm currently playing a load of Street Fighter IV. :D

It definitely has not invented the entire FPG genre, but it effectively reinvented the FPS genre on a console. No other console FPS before it integrated all the nuances of an FPS as well as Halo did. I guess Goldeneye 007 and Perfect Dark were alright for their time, but Halo was to console FPSes like the invention of the analog stick was to the entire world of console gaming.

The same reason you're so into NHL 08. Because they like it.

The suit Master Chief wears helps him jump high. It's not supossed to be realistic. Any game with Aliens invading earth arn't realistic.
