Because it is nothing special. The reason people like it so much is because MS hyped it to hell and back, it was the only thing on the xbox with any mainstream appeal that was decent, and because a lot of them had never played an fps before. Certainly not a PC one. 

what a load of nonsense.

"a lot of them had never played a FPS, certainly not a PC one"

so a lot had probably not played a FPS and never played a PC one... generalisation or what?

Question just for you... 

Killzone (1) or Halo CE?

 

You think I'm a killzone fan because of my avatar? Afraid not. Both series are mediocre, 7/10 games.

if one is 7/10 god knows what the other deserved....

Ill give you that CE is better than killzone 1 but thats simply because it isn't glitchy as hell. Which seems to be the only criteria for console shooting games. Does it run? Yes. Do you shoot things? Yes. 10/10 GOTY. 

I've played FPS games on PC's since Wolfenstein 3D, cannot stand people acting snobbish and elitist regarding console FPS games.  Seriously it was boring in 2001 and it's still boring now. 

Console fps games are fun little diversions, and I play them. But none of them have been truly groundbreaking like so many people insist. 

Well yes, actually they were groundbreaking for a console. PC games are a completely different animal and cannot truely be compaired to console games.
