I don't think Halo is the best- there are many great games out there. However, if we're talking about the realm of console first person shooters- Halo is certainly the best.
For me, it's the level of polish in the game- so many FPS games just feel broken, unfinished, and downright dirty to play. Halo is just so crisp and ironed out, you can tell that a lot of effort was put into making the game feel just right. Likewise, I think the amount of interaction with the environment sets Halo far above other console FPS games. But more than anything, I think it's just the attention to detail, and the level of polish, particularly in the control scheme.
