That's like playing baseball and then saying, "this is fun and all but, it would be much better if we played softball since the ball is bigger and I can be more accurate."
Playing with a controller is an issue simply because it's not fun. Who cares if everyone's got the same disadvantage... that's like claiming we can just cancel the regular Olympics because we've got the Special Olympics.

Plus, controller issues aside, when you compare Halo to its contemporary PC FPS games, it's only mediocre at best. It's only got this huge following because it was the 1st FPS on a console that wasn't complete utter crap, so a bunch of people got hooked on it because they didn't know how much better good FPS games were.
