Halo redefined the fps genre. Many RTS games blitzed the genre (DoW, SupCom), CoD showed how people will pay for the multiplayer now, WoW - need more be said for that, Mass Effect/Dragon Age has the super story emphasis which was new, GoW/Unreal 3 brought in 3rd person cover etc. Things have happened, just not for a while now though.

Halo is a 2002 IP. Every other game you mentioned isn't revolutionary, they just expanded/made people know something that was already done before. Wii Sports was revolutionary, Endless Ocean also was in a certain extent, and, if we trace back even further in the Nintendo IP library, I'm sure we can find many o ther games that also would fit the "revolutionary" description.

Wii Sports was revolutionary how? Arcades have had that type of game for decades, and Endless Ocean? I've never even heard of that game.

It brought lots and lots of new gamers into the market. It was used in retirement homes, schools, therapy etc. Which pretty much no game up to this point was. I still think WiiFit would fit (heh) the description of "revolutionary" a bit better.
